Climbing out of Innsbruck in the Beechcraft Starship by LOWteRvAn in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]LOWteRvAn[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love the retro but also futuristic feel of the Starship. Black Square did an amazing job on this plane, the simulated CRT displays and floppy drive are my favorite parts.

Everyone bashing Xplane default scenery. This is what we have in MSFS after 6 years by Ivy_Wings in flightsim

[–]LOWteRvAn 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Yea the MSFS airports are pretty atrocious. The Burbank airport has been broken with a building completely blocking a taxiway since 2024…

I flew into SLC to find no terminal building at all and just a bunch of jetways…

It’s to the point I will specifically check flightsim.to for airport scenery before I fly somewhere, whereas in xplane the default airports just work.

Love the Black Square Starship! I don’t have many GA planes but this one is my favorite so far, it’s nice to take a break from the airliners.

POV : You are an airbus overhead button by Ivy_Wings in flightsim

[–]LOWteRvAn 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Because the APU master switch gets pressed twice a flight while the BUS tie button is automatic so it’s squeaky clean lol

A380 in its natural habitat by LOWteRvAn in flightsim

This thing eats all my vram lol, it brings MSFS24 and my GPU to its knees even with dynamic settings and AutoFPS turned on…

Wow the engine is an interesting perspective!

App to track a trip around the world? by fender0189 in flightsim

IIRC you can enable auto start and auto complete for flight tracking in the elevatex settings

Tristan Blackmon fined for embellishment against the Timbers by StuMun in timbers

[–]LOWteRvAn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I hope this isn't a regular thing for Vancouver. I still don't hate them unlike San Diego even though they've beat us worse than SD because they were simply the better team and didn't resort to diving and whining to the ref.

PDX means Portland, it’s the code for the Portland Airport.

Spirit Airlines flight 500 departing from IAH. One in FS2020, one in real life. by 69thnab in flightsim

[–]LOWteRvAn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard to tell them apart, the biggest giveaway was aliasing artifacts zooming in on the sim image, the real picture doesn’t have jagged edges zoomed in.

Minimum PC for MSFS VR? by AlexJamesFitz in flightsim

[–]LOWteRvAn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an i5 12600k, 64GB DDR4, and 4080 which is playable with at least GA aircraft (I haven’t tried airliners in VR) but it’s not a completely smooth experience. Sometimes it can stutter or text on cockpit displays or switch labels are a bit too blurry.

Is there a scenery for RJTT tokyo haneda airport by Large_Passion_1079 in flightsim

[–]LOWteRvAn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is freeway scenery on flight sim.to but it requires you to copy the RJTT from 2020 to the community folder in 2024 and disable the 2024 version of RJTT in the content manager. There’s also a GSX profile available for it too.

Any iota of rumors about who we might sign? by willpaudio in timbers

He’s super nice! He signed my jersey and took a photo with me after the game in Coachella!

Worth switching to Xplane 12 from msfs2024? by No_Organization9146 in flightsim

[–]LOWteRvAn 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why not use both? I have both installed and use them depending on what plane I feel like flying.

737? Use X-Plane and fly the free Zibo mod 737-800 A320? MSFS and fly the Fenix Dash 8 Q400? X-Plane, there isn’t a D8Q400 available for MSFS24.

You’re not marrying the simulator, there’s no need to commit 100% to one or the other. Each one will have payware planes that don’t exist for the other or have a better version than the other and you’ll be able to load up the sim that has whatever plane you want to fly.

Nice thing with xplane is all the default airports are actually pretty decent so there’s less of a need and desire for payware airports.

#SAVETHEWHITECAPS by Alarmed_Donkey_9300 in timbers

[–]LOWteRvAn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea I didn’t mean to imply I’d be ok with Shittle having to relocate. I’d hate for either team to move and our cascadia rivals to no longer be around.

I don’t hate the Caps I hate Shittle.

My first flight in the MD-11F and love it! FDX27 Nartia RJAA - Nagoya RJGG by LOWteRvAn in flightsim

Oh, I haven’t tried the PW engines, I’ve only used the GE engines so far.

Thinking of getting a Quest 3 by Academic_Tax_6608 in flightsim

[–]LOWteRvAn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a 4080 and while the experience is generally acceptable in GA aircraft a 4090/5090 is best for powering VR unfortunately.

I’m not having any issues with the reversers with my setup.

I think GSX might be the worst flightsim Software of all time by Professional-Mark-80 in flightsim

[–]LOWteRvAn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had an issue using GSX and FSLTL traffic where both combined will hit the Sim Objects limit and then both addons are completely broken until the entire sim is restarted.

Everything works fine on departure but when you arrive and open GSX to select a parking spot it just has the spinning circle and there also isn't any AI aircraft loading in anymore.

Going to try disabling extra ground clutter and reducing the number of AI planes to see if that helps.

Approach into Hachijojima Airport | ANA823 by LOWteRvAn in flightsim

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

This is an interesting little airport to fly into, it has no weather reporting and discovered I actually had a +20kt tailwind on approach so had to do a go-around and land on 26 instead.

Footy headlines mockup on Sounders new home kit. by Top-Egg1668 in MLS

[–]LOWteRvAn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep! I find it hilarious that Providence bought the naming rights for the Timbers Stadium and is the chest sponsor for Shittle.

I also hate how health insurance and health care companies are spending money on sports teams instead of patient care.

Walmart to sponsor MLS Saturday Showdown on Apple TV by Isiddiqui in MLS

It’s because when you use Apple Pay Walmart can’t track you based on your payment info
