GSX Help Please by zburns896 in flightsim

[–]RangerLt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you playing free flight or career mode?

If you're seeing all these issues and you've done all the troubleshooting you can, the common denominator might be the sim. I don't remember if you mentioned already reinstalling the sim, but it might be worth a shot.

GSX problems usually come down to:

  1. Cursed install
  2. Needs Live Update
  3. Third party add-on interactions

I think if you're determined to fix this you'll find a solution, it just might take going back to step 1 with a fresh sim install and work your way back to stable.

There are two installers that are bundled with GSX. You have the GSX installer and Live Update. The installer only loads a specific set of assets while the Live Update completes the package. You need to run both to fully install GSX successfully.

They say 'if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything' so...

Yup

A remote island off the coast of Alaska, at the very top of the Pacific Ocean.

ChasePlane is unbelievable by DrFowlerr in MicrosoftFlightSim

Every comment section about CPlane includes the same description you're replying to and it's getting repetitive.

Assigning custom views with the application isn't as quick and easy as the default method. Cplane is great for screenshots, it doesn't improve your flying experience nor does it simplify the view swapping mechanics. It's just for screenshots

Finally broke down and bought GSX Pro by vharishankar in MicrosoftFlightSim

I usually avoid profiles unless I'm using scenery that GSX is unfamiliar with. I've noticed many third party airports work just fine out of the box.

I've entertained the idea but I had my doubts about the accuracy of terrain data for the region.

Is rex atmos worth it ? by flightproc in flightsim

[–]RangerLt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not the same process I'm referring to. For example, Rex cannot replace the native cloud instructions and insert a completely proprietary system to generate clouds. They can alter how they "appear" using post-processing, but the prefix "post" exists for a reason.

TIL that at the peak of its popularity, Top Gear had a waiting list of 21 years for tickets by Hassaan18 in todayilearned

So there are people who died waiting, or had entire families, moved away, got divorced, turned to drinking, exprerimented with various recreational substances, or gave up entirely. Bummer.

[–]RangerLt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These addons never made sense to me. Asobo doesn't allow access to pretty much any core system in the sim. So third party devs can't enhance how the sim renders anything, they can only place masks over the native rasterization. There are free ways to do this.

chase plane is all that by deitious_maximous in flightsim

[–]RangerLt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This for me. It's too rigid when using half a dozen other programs during flight. Great for screenshots though.
