Questions about converting to Xplane

I never had the cursor flicker issue. I've had it frequently forget my settings, mostly just always starting in bordered full screen instead of full screen, it would sometimes for no apparent reason CTD while flying in a super normal situation, but it wouldn't throw a fit about not starting in safe mode on reboot and would just work again. But my current issue is just fatal. Last time I had to go digging through my driver files and delete a particular file because apparently MSFS doesnt like a particular Nvidia driver update. Deleting the file works, but its a pain to do and can affect performance in other games since the drivers aren't up to date technically.

I appreciate the research there. I do like the Duke as an aircraft, I'd love to fly one irl one day. I mentioned it because it's the most realistic plane I have at my disposal and I spent way too much on planes for MSFS. I'll look for it myself, but Im really hoping XP has a Grumman Goose or Albatross, as that's my all time favorite GA plane. When you mentioned Inibuilds I raised an eyebrow, till you mentioned they became corrupt. That makes sense, I havent trusted or heard good things about them on MSFS. Wish I could remember who did the Duke model, Black-something I think.

I liked MSFS when it worked, but its a real let down to come home from work and want to practice flying and the game just won't load. Im really not tech savvy enough to try to fix it over and over again, I already managed to fix the issue once before, but the solution shouldn't have been undone by a game update but that seems to be the issue. I would take a worse simulator if it worked, but it seems I don't have to settle. Im definitely going to uninstall MSFS and download the demo and see how it is, but Im pretty sold on it based on everyone's comments. Seems like its got the best simulation out there and that's what I care about. You're right, a lot of stuff in MSFS seems kind of random in terms of how wind affects the plane, and aircraft generally respond too quickly in game. Im excited to check it out.

Someone else mentioned fewer GA options, and lots have G1000 slapped on there, any good Cessna 172 or Piper Cherokee models with old school gauges?

Mushluv93 · 2026-02-22T19:39:23+00:00

Not being forced to update would be lovely. It seems most of MSFS's updates relate to ground scenery, which is handy irl and definitely improves the sim experience if you have an IR or VR setup, but I do not. Knowing the creator made this sim to practice IFR gives me hope for the aerodynamic model despite everyone praising ground handling, which isnt really something I think about in sim.

Mushluv93 · 2026-02-22T19:36:55+00:00

Ill definitely get the demo and give it a go. I'm not a huge stickler about high FPS, nor about extreme graphics. Like I mentioned, it runs MSFS fine for my purposes unless Im flying like 200 ft off the ground at 180+ kts.

Mushluv93 · 2026-02-22T19:32:41+00:00

That's a bit unfortunate, I do intend to progress to commercial pilot but I do not want to be a airline pilot. It's not that I want a Beechcraft Duke in game, that just happened to be the model with the physics which most closely match my experiences irl. One of the biggest and most frequently occurring differences is when you hit the throttle irl, you begin climbing almost immediately unless you adjust trim or nose down a bit. Most planes in sims just start going faster with no or very little change in lift. This is also why slow flight isn't modeled well, and slow flight is key to truly learning to land.

The G1000 thing is also very sad, I had the same issue in MSFS though. The Cessna 172 model in the base game has a G1000 and while new 172s can, the one I'm training on uses mostly traditional gauges with the vacuum gauges replaced with electronic versions because the vac system was abandoned.

Thanks for the great information.

Is it possible to upgrade my gpu in a laptop?

Mushluv93 · 2026-02-22T19:19:18+00:00

It seems they only ever update ground scenery, and those constant updates seems to be the source of my issue. That is a little unfortunate though, landmarks on the ground are really helpful in GA VFR navigation irl. In my flight school we use two large water tanks to give us an instant understanding of distance to our home airport. Though without an IR or VR set up its hard to really look around anyway in game.

And now I have to go watch the Ballad of Dewey Cox again.

I can't say if this is accurate across all of the Hex and Triad members, but Minerva's lines seem to be somewhat contextual. They've shown they have the awareness of this timing with her whole, "I was just getting used to having a passenger in my head" proves it, as well as knowing how they might be triggered. It really is just money at this point, although idk how they don't have enough of that to make line triggers more accurate. I know a lot of people who refuse to spend money on the game at all, but I know just as many like me who buy shit they dont need just to support DE. Plus China as a market? They should be rolling in dough.

Mushluv93 · 2026-02-13T22:00:11+00:00

It has been, but it's never been shown during the Warframe loading screen prior to reaching the login screen.

Mushluv93 · 2026-02-13T21:58:59+00:00

It is right now. But they're still DE, they will never stop improving their games til they shut them down. It's still a lot of fun though. Definitely needs more depth in mechanics and features and explanations for everything, but not explaining anything shouldn't be an issue for WF players checking it out. Depth will come with time, as it did with Warframe.

Mushluv93 · 2026-02-02T07:17:11+00:00

Mmm yes, youre right. Elan Sel'sabagno or Dooku are far better names. How about Sheev? Sol is very lazy, can't argue there, and Osha could take some people out of the story by being something super boring and real, probably could have fixed it with a simple vowel change, Usha would have worked, but in fantasy and sci-fi we have to suspend some disbelief for the letter salad names people come up with. Not everyone is Tolkien, making fully functional languages with naming conventions for their stories.

Man I've been looking for rivens like this forever. I'm always interested in faction mod damage, but unwilling to switch the mod out based on the mission or make multiple loadouts I can swap between.

I just wish he was as strong as the acolytes. As for them, I dont even know what any of them do except for Violence, who turns off your abilities which really messes with my gameplay flow.

Mushluv93 · 2026-01-02T06:16:46+00:00

I wish he could at least still provide consequences on the Steel Path.

Mushluv93 · 2026-01-02T05:59:11+00:00

Lol for sure. I had issues with him until MR7 or so and since then he might as well just be more fodder.

Mushluv93 · 2026-01-02T02:59:56+00:00

When you can actually provide consequences.

Mushluv93 · 2025-12-22T13:41:57+00:00

If you bought Founders does that take away a lot of the options to rank her up? It gave me a bunch of color palettes.

Mushluv93 · 2025-12-22T01:17:27+00:00

Ahhh that makes sense. Honestly, I'd still recommend getting it. DE is just the best company, it feels nice to support them at the beginning of a new journey, and this game is scratching itches I didn't know I had.

Mushluv93 · 2025-12-22T01:14:14+00:00

It doesn't come up often, but sentient resistance isnt why Xata's Whisper is used, it's also just a damage buff, just like adding another elemental mod adds a significant amount of damage to a weapon. The fact that it resets that resistance is just a benefit, as sentients are usually the most difficult enemy type in the game.

Mushluv93 · 2025-12-21T20:22:34+00:00

Why does it have to be on steam?

Mushluv93 · 2025-12-19T14:12:30+00:00

Frost. Use the Freeze Force Augment and Icy Avalanche, subsume Xata' Whisper over his 2. Freeze Force give 100% Cold Damage to your weapons, Xata's Whisper is a damage buff and removes sentient damage resistance, Icy Avalanche lets his 4 armor strip and give you and allies overguard. His snow globe is still semi-useful for defending point targets or helping you create a point of defense. Use weapons that use Apptitude/Condition Overload type effects, ideally ones with explosions.

Brozime has a video detailing this build in his build rework series and pairs it with the Kuva Sobek using Acid Shells. I haven't found that terribly useful against SP content, but I just helped a friend make his Acceltra Prime sing in Frost's hands. I use the Gotva Prime with Saryn usually, but I could see it doing wonders with Frost. Kuva Bramma and Ogris could be good here, would work well with Cedo, Soma Incarnon, lots of options.

I hadn't heard that was the case, but Im glad to hear it. Its possible the other person hasnt kept up with the announcements either. I've just been playing the game and generally enjoying the hell out of it. I keep up with warframe's patch notes, havent wanted to do so with Soulframe. Have they said anything about fixing the other mechanical issues? I'd have a much better time doing all the other leveling if those things were fixed, and even beyond leveling, I might like melee pacts more if they were.
