What's your favorite airframe + livery combination? I'm really digging Northwest Airlines recently, and I think it looks great on the super 80

Flight Simulator 2024 Winter is coming! ❄️

My friend and I decided to create an entire snow system for the Fenix A320 in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024. This mod features animations of snow being cleared from the windows, compatibility with GSX, and snow-melting logic triggered by Window Heat. Keep in mind that snow impairs flight performance, so compatibility with anti-ice systems is also a feature. Our goal is to make the A320 feel more "alive" as winter approaches. We hope you enjoy this mod, and we welcome your feedback in the comments.

Well we all know that it will still take a lot of time before we see the NEOs in the sim and that we might hear almost nothing more from them, but it’s nice to know that the CEO update is about to be released and that most of their devs are now focusing on the A32Xneo

Flight Simulator 2024 What am I doing wrong here? PMDG 777 hard right bank on final approach.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

17 Upvotes

The video shows the first attempt and then a second attempt after a go-around. I can't explain this uncontrollable, sudden hard bank to the right.

This is flying into SEQM, using FSRealistic+ and RealTurbV2, but I don't think they have anything to do with this.

The same approach with the MD-11 is as smooth as ever.

What am I doing wrong here? I don't see how this could be related to the SU7 drag bug.

All in all, it was a good experience. There were some problems with speech recognition, and the tower gave me my IFR clearance a second time before I entered the runway.Intersting thing was that i was put into a holding pattern on arrival because of an unresponsive plane. Too bad the price is too high i will take a month here and there but no way i'am getting the whole year

Built this real quick for practicing checklists, muscle memory and getting away from the keyboard and mouse. Their ecosystem brings software that pushes the right plugins with button actions to Microsoft Flight Simulator or X-Plane. Works flawless.

It can’t just be me that gets annoyed about how bad the GA Ai traffic injection is. Is there anyone working on something for better bizz jets and normal GA traffic? Or is it just me?

Rant AI Generated Thumbnails

47 Upvotes

Firstly, I completely respect that content creators are free to create whatever kind of thumbnails they want and it’s everyone’s choice whether we click on it, so it’s not really a DEEP issue.

But why are we in an age where flight sim is looking as close to realism as it ever conceivably has but people still feel the need to use AI slop for a thumbnail? Your sim already looks mind blowing but you still need to click bait with a false representation?

Especially since DLSS5 has been implemented by a lot of content creators, I’m seeing more and more of it and I cannot understand the thought process of going to the extra effort when a screenshot from your sim would look miles better.

Ultimately yes I get that it’s to pull in more clicks and views but it just seems a waste when we have such good looking sims already.

Flight Simulator 2024 Flying a pattern in the middle of a very dense city

Thumbnail

35 Upvotes

Flying a fast(-ish) jet into Campo de Marte (SBMT) which is located the middle of São Paulo, is so strangely exhilarating.

It's a VFR airport, so unless you look the weather up ahead you might end up diverting. The only published approach (on Navigraph) is the visual pattern, so you have to be on top of your game to spot the airport and the various cues. But the high-quality photogrammetry around São Paulo makes it all worth it.

Truly a golden-era for flightsims IMO.

Flight Simulator 2024 New MK Studios KMIA - GSX profile?

7 Upvotes

I’m intrigued by this new release, the modelling seems good. But I can’t find any mention of an official GSX profile on their store listings. Does anyone know if there is one?

I bloody well hope so, it’s 2026 and any high end scenery absolutely needs to have one.

Flight Simulator 2024 Winwing devices have severe input/display lag after SimAppPro update

4 Upvotes

Since updating SimAppPro to version 1.17.9, I've been experiencing severe delays with my Winwing FCU, EFIS, MCDU and Chrono across multiple aircraft (Fenix, FSLabs) in MSFS 2024.

When I turn a knob, the change appears immediately in the simulator, but the physical device display updates several seconds later, sometimes even up to a minute.

Has anyone experienced something similar or found a solution?

Flight Simulator 2024 So how is SU7 drag bug affecting paywares like PMDG and Fenix?

Seems the drag calculation bug would be pretty devastating for premium addons that manages weight properly. Just curious on how is it going? Everyone flying like a rocket for the time being?

Flight Simulator 2024 A rain effect or a better graphics patch?

Post image

The rain effect looks poor whilst playing the game – is there a way to fix this, or is there a graphics mode you could recommend? I want to role-play in the game and have it rain, but it’s raining so lightly that it doesn’t look very realistic at all.
