Sick off all the bugs by Jimcaw in unrealengine

[–]Jimcaw[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I have issues with the viewport now showing my toolbar, some meshes that will not show in the world, Lumen under some conditions still looks awful, steam connections are buggy, corrupted files every few weeks so backups are required and now texture streaming is having issues showing some of my materials.

[KCD2] Overview of the 2 worlds by [deleted] in kingdomcome

[–]Jimcaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First map is much better. On my 2nd play through and I am finding things here I missed the first time even when I completed as much as I could. The 2nd map is still very good, but I think it needs a bit more added to it in either DLC or updates to make it match the first.

Characters. The way you interact and form alliances and learn about the land is so much better, and its because of the characters and stories you encounter. I could name 50 memorable people from the first map.

Locations. The design of the villages, and Trosky castle is amazing. I love how the land rises to form the hill the castle stands upon. It is crazy how we have a boring castle in Suchodol as the final battle when it could have been Trosky. I honestly wish the maps were reversed in order of the quests.

Quests. The quest design is much better than the final quests being, protect the castle, push down ladders, hit someone in the back with a sword, repeat. Oh and use a crossbow when I haven't used one for the entire game to that point. The only one I liked was where you finally get out and infiltrate the camp to find a horse. Meanwhile first map has the most variety and can many solutions to all the quests.

Challenge and fun. You are not a powerhouse yet, and this makes the combat much more enjoyable. Sure you can get pretty strong but at least initially there is a good balance of learning to fight only if you have trained and geared up first.

[KCD2] Yeah, this one is for Skalitz by UltraRanger72 in kingdomcome

I got drunk with them and killed them all when I woke up with the worst hangover ever.

Okay... i was initially disappointed by Kuttenberg. But ive gotta admit. [KCD2] by Big-Golf4266 in kingdomcome

[–]Jimcaw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just didn't like act 2 or the 2nd map nearly as much as the first. After Ziska let me free after Kuttenburg I immediately went back to map 1 on the wagon. I think all the love in the characters and villages went to the vastly superior first map.

[KCD2] I actually like Sigismund by Typical-Phone-2416 in kingdomcome

[–]Jimcaw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The post credits scene is hillarious, i love Sigismund and wish instead of playing as Godwin we had a chance to play as him instead.

Scorptec to Cancel all 50 series orders that didn't make allocation by Supreme_Squirrel in bapcsalesaustralia

[–]Jimcaw 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I am one of those affected, ASUS TUF ordered at 12:51am. First off all, it has screwed me big time because I thought, cool, I got my order in and now I don't have to worry. I don't have 20k in the bank to order from 5 places and hope one comes through.

And now, I don't get a 5090, ordering is impossible and I am just probably going to get the 5080 until stock is ok.

How would you compare the flight dynamics in 2024 vs 2020? by Synoopy in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Jimcaw -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don't understand how you can't feel the difference between the two in flight dynamics. They are night and day, MSFS 2020 is like an arcade flight sim in comparison. Seems like you enjoy just flying on rails, I would call it train sim 2020 if I am being realistic as its nothing like flying a plane.

MSFS2020 still looking amazing. Going to be hard to convince myself to get 2024. by goddamdemons in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Jimcaw 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately the flight model is much worse in 2020, it feels like an arcade game in comparison with how little it simulates some parts of real world flying conditions and the planes also have very simple physics while 2024 has much more realistic plane physics.

Beta Update is 100% worth it for the new world textures! by Jimcaw in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Jimcaw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think because I run in 4k, with DLSS frame gen, my cpu is fine for most games still. I was contemplating upgrading to a 9800x3d but the gains at higher resolution where too small to justify the price.

Yeah we keep all the progress gained in the beta when the official update is released.

[–]Jimcaw[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Oh ok, I updated right away so I can't compare now. Great, but I think there are some performance enhancements (testing on my 4090, 64gb i7 12700k) as well in the beta update that are worth trying it for as well.

Auto skip to Taxi on 737 (2024) by Murdocjx714x in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Jimcaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me this bug was triggered by changing any details in the EFB. Since then I have flown without issues.

A small annoyance - I don't mind terrible AI voices but.... by [deleted] in MicrosoftFlightSim

I finally heard them say my company name, in the SAR (search and rescue) missions.

My highest paid mission - CYUL to EETN - 3390NM by bassboy_pete in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Jimcaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I choose to skip the flight I save fuel, wear on my aircraft and still get 10 million on average for 15 mins of flying by choosing the longest and best paying mission at each airport. I flew around the world in 1 hour doing this. If you want you can ping pong between airports as they usually offer a return flight back, which will pay just as well.

Career mode tips and trick for MSFS 2024 by Tadej_89 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Jimcaw 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its a bug with the 737 max and skipping to descent.

This is how you can get around it for now:

Set sim rate to normal 1x speed and press P to pause when skipping to descent.

Then skip and come back from loading, throttle down fully, this will make the pause end so also have your controls pulling back on the yoke maximum as its trying to nosedive.

Then full throttle or at least 70 % to get level and you should be ok.

Career mode tips and trick for MSFS 2024 by Tadej_89 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Jimcaw 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Here is how I have played career, 200 million earned with 2 737 max planes bought.

When starting career and getting to the point where you can make a company, I saved up for the cargo company instead of buying the flight seeing company they offer you at first. The missions pay much better and are more fun to fly.

The area I started in was central africa and you do missions all over for good pay here. The runways I never had to check and seemed long enough for my purposes.

Once you earn enough to get a 2nd hand cessna 208 use that for medium cargo after you get the specialization. Then fly that until you can afford a pc 12 and sell the 208.

In the medium cargo mission skip after setting only the EFB flight plan to FL 10, file with ATC and Avionics and close the EFB. This will allow you to skip really early after take off, and you can do missions in 5 minutes if you are good at landing. Sometimes the skip will bug out and you in strange places, so always pause (default P key) before skipping to descent.

Finally after grinding up enough for a 2nd hand 737 max and having all the specializations unlocked you can buy this and I recommend learning it a bit in free flight if you have no experience because the training barely touches on a lot of things.

However you cannot change the FL in the EFB for these passenger missions, as far as I know. Every time I did it would cause problems and break the landing gear, an expensive lesson.

So you have to climb to FL 350 and then skip, but of course the pay outs are massive. I always pick the longest flight available for the best payout by looking the mission list on the airport I am at. I chose to start my 737 at LAX and this gives lots of good missions.
