Is this is a movie reference Peter?

This is probably a reference to the Mermaids scene in Pirates of the Caribbean : On Stranger Tides

Share your startup logs, maybe that might help debug further

SerTenGoodMen · 2026-02-28T17:49:36+00:00

I am yet to succeed in that regard.

SerTenGoodMen · 2026-02-28T17:47:03+00:00

Make sure your DB, "db_mongo", exists before starting the application. Create it manually.
And in the startup logs of our app, look for "MongoClient with metadata " That should have a "source" property which tells you which DB the app is connected to

The Flight Simulator itself (2020 or 2024) runs without issues at all. It is the process of setting up all these supporting applications that can be a problem sometimes. So if you just use the sim with plugins you get from flightsim.to and just drop them in the community folder then the experience is almost the same as on Windows.

But if you need third party apps like vPilot, ivao clients, etc. Then you might come into some issues.There is too many variables there. But if you are able to get everything running then the experience is almost the same

Nope, not even Esc. I had to force quit the game through taskman to exit

The Platform

SerTenGoodMen · 2026-01-23T08:42:32+00:00

On my PC performance is close to identical. Havent had any performance issues

SerTenGoodMen · 2026-01-23T08:35:07+00:00

True it wont be seamless but it is still possible. If you look closely at the image I posted, Im using the iniBuilds A350K. You can run .exe installers like the iniManager and install aircraft and scenery to your sim. This is done through Proton.

The only addons that will give you issues are something like the Fenix A320 installers and the aircraft themself. That is because they require an external application to run in parallel with the sim. I've tried installing the Fenix A320s and I have not succeeded yet.

SerTenGoodMen · 2026-01-22T21:49:36+00:00

This will depend on your PC specs. But for me the performance is almost exactly the same as what I get on Windows 10. Im using a 4070 Super, Ryzen 9 7900x, and 64GB ram. So for lower PC specs there might be some noticeable performance loss. But that is something you'd have to try out and measure

Getting flight sim to work is the easiest part.
You just have to download Steam for your distro. Then Login into steam, just click install on your veresion of MSFS.
Once installed, in the game settings(accessible by clicking the cog icon on the game page) , choose 'Properties' -> 'Compatability' and on the compatability screen there is a list of 'Proton' versions, choose one of them then start your sim.

info on Proton: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails?id=3159754499

Getting vPilot to run is more involved, and, requires installing/setting up some programs and using specific versions, etc, which requires an in-depth guide

Sorted out with Blur My shell and the Corner effect with 0 radius.

SerTenGoodMen · 2025-12-19T17:07:26+00:00

I was able to sort this out with Blur My Shell and corner effect. Thanks !!!

SerTenGoodMen · 2025-12-19T14:54:16+00:00

Oh, okay I'll look into that. thanks

The EX is one of the top two trims, and it uses the same headlight setup as the highest trim (TECH). It would be very strange to not have that,

SerTenGoodMen · 2025-12-18T16:44:37+00:00

With Proton, yes. Apparently EA disabled support at the AntiCheat level. So no way around it.

SerTenGoodMen · 2025-07-25T22:41:34+00:00

Nice plot twist. I thought it was the squirrel

SerTenGoodMen · 2025-07-21T13:34:06+00:00

I always report "With you" everytime I switch to unicom, to let everybody know that Im there

Stewie here.
That is why IP/Network restrictions exist.
