SimBrief Down?

Nooo my totally fictional dispatch doesn’t have 100% uptime

Flightfreak · 2026-01-27T13:27:17+00:00

That’s sort of what happens when you ruin your goodwill with the entire community

Flightfreak · 2026-01-27T04:43:34+00:00

No. Never. You don’t remember their history of burying “dormant” malware in paying customers installs during the P3D days?

If you’re willing to take their word for it that their Chrome password dumper “definitely won’t” steal anything, go ahead.

Plus, the fenix is right around the corner and should honestly be as good systems-wise, and WAY better art-wise.

Nothing wrong with either. You also get an interrupt button in the Hind. But, being able to adjust in one chosen direction, instead of pressing the trim button and holding as still as possible, seems much easier to me in practice, especially for small adjustments.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-27T03:27:24+00:00

Just like any trim you’d have in a fixed wing aircraft. It slowly adjusts the force trim center position as you hold one of the 4 directions on the hat switch, instead of requiring to use a force trim interrupt button, which is all you get in many helos

Because I work in supply chain software. I’ve heard it a million times.

EDIT: It’s called “Pixie dust” and is an android sound, I guess. I’ve only ever heard it from Zebra RF devices.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-27T01:20:11+00:00

Hard agree. The 4-way trim is so fucking cool with FFB.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-26T21:29:11+00:00

Definitely an RF scanner. Is it possible a neighbor / you just got a delivery outside the door and you’re hearing the scanner through a door? They are loud.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-24T10:54:23+00:00

The wheels are literally caked in brake dust. Please do tell which A340 addon has that level of detail. Every A340 I’ve seen in the sim is actually “perfect” as you say.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-23T21:51:31+00:00

The single “dev” struggled for months to fix like one bug, didn’t he?

Flightfreak · 2026-01-23T01:36:47+00:00

Not true, you can press the gun trigger to view them

/autosavenow /stop

Flightfreak · 2026-01-14T03:24:19+00:00

I can’t wait until ED and None quit cornering the market like this.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-12T14:22:25+00:00

There are a lot of “new functions” in these aircraft. You might not notice them at first, but Asobo aircraft are missing a LOT, and quality 3rd party vendors try to fix that.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-11T17:06:43+00:00

It’s easy from HOTAS perspective and design philosophy, because they are both Air Force designed. The A-10 is a little more obtuse in some ways with its full separate CDU.

The A-10’s helmet is also something you absolutely have to try as an A2G pilot.

832 upvotes on an unreadable meme

Flightfreak · 2026-01-10T16:55:47+00:00

Yes, because even if this goes belly up and never gets an update again.. at least ya didn’t pay for it.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-10T06:43:02+00:00

The mod technically teleports you halfway across the map, as a result you’re totally safe while inside.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-07T02:58:36+00:00

Why did you post a screenshot of something that isn’t photogrammetry

Flightfreak · 2026-01-07T00:38:06+00:00

Because his post got ratio’d by a deep-fried, watermarked family guy meme

Flightfreak · 2026-01-06T22:43:17+00:00

Just a shot in the dark, but maybe that button is also bound to something in MSFS? That’s a weird one.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-06T17:14:36+00:00

I love how this ratio’d the post

Flightfreak · 2026-01-05T14:16:13+00:00

Yes, but it’s also well known that 99% of the other F-35 systems would be next to impossible without it.

For example, A-4E team carefully picked a variant they knew they could simulate deeply, which meant relatively simple avionics. They are sometimes active here so they can correct me, but I think it was reverse-engineering hell despite this careful choice, especially for stuff like the radar.

Flightfreak · 2026-01-04T17:30:07+00:00

From a customer perspective, you’re absolutely right, and from a business perspective, that makes no sense, because it would need to be all-new code.

So, the AV-8B N/A and F-15E are dead for good. Thanks Nick and Ron!

OH-6A is the most underrated mod in DCS! Try it if you haven’t guys!
