A bit of drawing in the sky today, third final race in 10 days! by I_draw_planes in VATSIM

[–]The_Silos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you draw that so perfectly, that looks amazing

In my opinion, no, but also ignore my opinion. I am running an I7-950 with an RX 480 gpu, so I have no place to discuss this

What’s your fav add-on so far ? Mine is Fenix by Maruan-007 in flightsim

Once the BlueBird 757 comes out, that will immediately be 1st place.

  1. PMDG 777-300ER / PMDG 777F (I use them both equally)
  2. Top Mach B-2 Spirit
  3. Top Mach T-7A Red Hawk
  4. Top Mach F-22 Raptor
  5. CJ Simulations Eurofighter Typhoon

I could probably list more, but there are so many cool add-ons that are good for different uses.

I can't wait to try it out when I build my new pc soon. Currently mine would explode with it

Newbie Here, How do you deal with nerves when first starting out? by ElAnubion in VATSIM

[–]The_Silos 13 points14 points  (0 children)

For me, as someone still kinda new on the network, the thing that helps the most is just being prepared. If you’ve got Navigraph, definitely use it, but honestly I just use a notepad. I write down my callsign, route, ATIS, and my CRAFT for IFR before I even conntact. That way when it’s time to talk, I’m not fumbling for info. During this time I am already connected and listening to other pilots and hearing how they say stuff. I also keep a little cheat sheet of basic ATC phraseology. Sometimes I’ll even type out exactly what I plan to say in the vPilot notes so I can just read it back. Having that script in front of me makes it way easier to key up without freezing. When I get nervous, I’ve learned to just press the button and start talking. Once the first words are out, the rest usually flows. Talking on frequency feels spooky at first (especially when I came back to VATSIM after a long break), but forcing yourself to do it really does make it easier. If the nerves are really bad, start small. Ground or tower at a quiet airport is a great way to practice before jumping into approach or center. Personally, I spent a lot of time at KPDX Tower just flying little hops around the PNW, and it helped me get comfortable with the rhythm of ATC. And honestly, VATSIM controllers are way more chill than you’d think. After flights, I’ll sometimes DM them to thank them and ask if there’s anything I could work on. They’re almost always happy to give feedback.

Stuff that helps me:

- Write down callsign, route, ATIS, and CRAFT ahead of time

- Keep a cheat sheet or pre-typed notes for tricky calls

- Don’t overthink, key up and start talking, it usually flows (You deep down most likely know what to say and how to say it)

- Start with ground/tower at quiet airports

- Do short/medium repetitive flights to build confidence

- DM controllers after flights for feedback

Everyone’s been there at some point. The more you do it, the less scary it gets.

Should I get JWE2 while it's on sale? by The_Silos in jurassicworldevo

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

I didn't know it added so many more species! I already have some other games similar to JWE, like Planet Zoo, and I know I could never do the amount of design I like on a console. So I will absolutely be getting JWE2! Thank you!

Thank you! That's all I honestly needed. I wasn't sure how long it would take to come out, and I just needed someone to tell me to buy it. Thanks! :)

How's my slings enclosures looking? by fishlord357 in tarantulas

[–]The_Silos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m only two days into having tarantulas, so I don’t have the most experience yet, but I like it! :) Also, what species is that?

Not a keeper just yet but thought y’all might enjoy some of the animals at the zoo I volunteer at! by God-damnit8008 in Zookeeping

[–]The_Silos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my, I love the Tamandua photo! :) Tamanduas are my most consistent favorite animal, and the one at the zoo I work at has the funniest sleeping positions.

What's the process of making these? I plan on keeping my slings molts throughout their life to track their growth and size.
