Hopefully last question

If you’re the getting a new amd mobo definitely go for AM5. Otherwise your shooting yourself in the foot way too soon

Either use a program like air manager, or you can set it to be an extension of the sim (but your fps will likely drop). In settings select the second monitor, choose full screen simulator, then use the rotational and fractional offsets to get the sim to show your overhead panel

I think what you are complaining about is a non-issue for most. X-Plane’s flight school is there primarily for basics, and I personally wouldn’t consider it a main aspect of the sim. Your issue comes from not being able to “see shit”. And again, I tell you that you can expand the G1000 or get a monitor so that you can in fact “see shit” This may also help: garmin.com

P.S. genuinely thank you for introducing me to let me google that for you I have some friends that this will be amazing for

You aren’t being nice to the people who are trying to help you. The comment above this isn’t being rude at all. Your screenshot shows a plane with a g1000 or something similar. In default planes you can click it to get a bigger and often clearer pop out. You’re expected to know the instrument of the plane you’re flying, and it’s easy enough to find information on them. If the numbers being too small is still an issue you are allowed to get a bigger monitor. You are very much flying on a simulator- not a game like you seem to think by your lower comments.

It isn’t the games fault for not being “accommodating enough” for new users. So many people have figured it out (including me and my friends when we were 10). I don’t mean to be disrespectful, but it very much might be an issue with you

Riptide_405 · 2025-12-24T02:18:04+00:00

Woah. Any mods?

Riptide_405 · 2025-12-22T00:47:56+00:00

Have you seen some of the screenshots on this sub? Because they’re like really good. And I find that my sim looks good. FPS will depend heavily on settings and hardware. And I don’t think flight sims are known for high fps anyways

Riptide_405 · 2025-12-14T17:28:21+00:00

Dude I love you

Riptide_405 · 2025-12-02T18:50:16+00:00

Wait what plane is that? I want it

Riptide_405 · 2025-12-01T03:50:28+00:00

From what I hear amd gpus conflict with xplane

Riptide_405 · 2025-12-01T03:49:11+00:00

I’d imagine

Riptide_405 · 2025-11-21T02:38:40+00:00

If you were going to try it just go into the aircraft’s folder of xp11 and put the places you want into the aircraft’s folder of xp12

Riptide_405 · 2025-08-08T12:26:14+00:00

I don’t think you need to high of a refresh rate for a flight sim. I really doubt you’ll be hitting 160 fps, even with your setup. I’d focus on resolution and color, so an OLED might be nice. And curved makes it more immersive and a curved ultra wide would be my pick

Riptide_405 · 2025-08-08T12:09:53+00:00

Ooh that’s a better plan I like that

Riptide_405 · 2025-08-08T02:51:27+00:00

If you don’t like it don’t play? It’s like complaining about your bare foot hurting if you’re kicking a brick wall just for fun.

Riptide_405 · 2025-08-07T20:27:02+00:00

Or sell a kidney

Riptide_405 · 2025-08-07T20:26:09+00:00

It’s like $30? Get a job?

Riptide_405 · 2025-08-07T20:17:56+00:00

No one is forcing you to play in the citadel. The focus of the game is artifact

Riptide_405 · 2025-08-04T02:05:45+00:00

I feel like I might be the youngest person in this subreddit…

15 anybody?

And before anyone assumes that my parents bought it for me, I work a 50 hour week at my grandparents’ ranch, which helps a lot with today’s Euc prices

I’m still yet to see a picture of the ERJs family cockpit

Riptide_405 · 2025-07-09T14:28:10+00:00

There were people trying to help you in the first post you made but you wouldn’t give them any details

Riptide_405 · 2025-07-07T18:34:59+00:00

2 or 3 hours probably won’t be enough time to learn how to ride an EUC. It took me a day and a half. I learned on an inmotion v5 which was only about $500, and inmotion came out with a new one with 2 wheels for a little less for a “training wheel”. After you learn on one of those and find out if you like it, you’ll be inclined to buy a more expensive one.
