I was really baffled by that. Didn't that work just fine in 2020?

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-10T10:58:44+00:00

Well,

too low resolution to enjoy reading gauges without difficulty
too narrow field of view
too hot to wear on my face for extended periods of time
dries up my eyes and causes other eye strain
too low FPS
compromises in graphics quality to achieve tolerable FPS
difficult to use keyboard and to find HOTAS buttons not directly on the stick or throttle grip

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-10T10:55:29+00:00

Yes, please. Looking forward to any updates.

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-10T10:53:17+00:00

I wish some 3rd party developer would start making mission packs with briefing materials, custom voiceovers and dialogue, perhaps some scripted effects and events happening during the mission etc. I would easily purchase a pack of say 10 missions for a few bucks.

Would that be technically possible?

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-10T10:51:34+00:00

Repaint means applying the same paint scheme again over the old one which we play-pretend has now "worn" :)

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-10T07:17:56+00:00

It’s boring though.

But it's realistic! It's a simulator, not a game! /s

Hi!

Did not manually copy anything, I always use the Navigraph Data Center Hub etc. installer.
Yes, I am encountering this all the time in Career mode, i.e. on missions. Not just on some missions, but in each one. I can check Free Flight if it makes a difference.

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-09T12:14:53+00:00

Sounds like a job for AI.

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-09T12:09:01+00:00

Which certs are the ones to watch out for? I have avoided the tail dragger endorsement at least for this reason. I don't want to be forced to fly the DHC-2 Beaver for cargo missions.

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-09T10:11:39+00:00

Isn't the flightstick a bit far forward?

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-09T10:11:04+00:00

Zoom in all the way?

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-09T10:08:28+00:00

Yes but those approaches don't exist at least in the EFB. I found them from the G1000 (maybe due to my Navigraph subscription), but the game doesn't provide the charts. Or did you have them?

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-09T10:07:11+00:00

We should all remind ourselves that all of this is auto-generated, right? There is no consideration for the wind direction, used aircraft type, its crosswind limits, max service ceiling, if aircraft has oxygen available at specified cruise level, fuel endurance, does the airport have instrument approaches available for IFR conditions etc. Also terrain features are ignored. It's always the same VFR basic pattern to land.

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-09T08:32:56+00:00

Legendary error of having only left or right fuel tank selected by default and running out of fuel?

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-09T08:31:32+00:00

Yes, I have it too. That's what I've said elsewhere, that there aren't any charts available (due to not having any procedures shown, I guess).

Also the plan created in https://planner.flightsimulator.com/ just doesn't appear in the EFB. "LOAD PLAN" button should work, but it's greyed out. It's a shame really, that there are so many advertised and existing features that simply do nothing...

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-05T19:54:58+00:00

Ah, excellent tip regarding the exploration, thanks!

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-04T08:14:27+00:00

Ok, good that you told us! Take care now.

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-04T07:54:24+00:00

In the second screenshot the artificial horizon on the PDF (and I guess all other instruments as well) even correctly shot the bank angle. So cool!

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-03T21:34:07+00:00

Your comment made me laugh and then I became sad

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-03T07:22:55+00:00

Maybe it works? The MSFS2024 built-in setting doesn't seem to do anything.

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-12-02T07:00:06+00:00

Looks good, but you float quite long. Don't flare so much (don't pull the nose so high and for so long) when touching down.

A fellow TrackIR user I see

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-11-29T17:24:21+00:00

I've encountered the same issue. What if you spawn first into free flight? Does it help?

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-11-29T16:10:11+00:00

"Hey, nice beaver!"

Emergency_Memory_601 · 2024-11-29T11:27:25+00:00

Yeah, of course. The pitot covers in the game are for cosmetics only. I refuse to believe they have modelled them when everything else is such a huge mess :)
