A beast indeed but it's no Tornado but a Eurofighter Typhoon.

Jack is active on Avsim lately.

It's indeed great news. Actually, all G3000 and G5000 aircraft will have a boost.
I don't know which ones but I guess quiet a few.

Merry Christmas to all. Have a wonderful time!

There are many nice gems on "dot to", including Duxford indeed.
As Adam mentions, there are a lot of good bush strips but also seaplane bases.
The scenery is sometimes of quality which reminds me of the FSX/P3D days of Orbx.I'm currently having a blast at LOIJ. Not only for the nice little airport but also for the great surroundings provided by MSFS.

So, am I correct when I think they essentially say it will not totally break compatibility with excisting add-ons?
-
Addons Linker helps me with organizing my addons so I can find them pretty fast if they have to be updated.
Second, Addons Linker also makes it possible to install scenery on a different disc than where my Community folder is.
I do not run out of SSD space too fast then.

Ok... I did not see that coming.
I mean, Unreal engine in a flight simulator. I do wonder however, how Blackshark and Unreal will work together since Blackshark might not be as detailed as the Unreal engine can deliver. Maybe up in the sky Blackshark and satellite images and on the ground all the detail of the Unreal engine.
That's exactly what Jörg ment when he said he wants more detail on the global ground in MSFS.
I doubt that it already will be effective in P3D v6 unless they already worked on this since going 64-bit with v4.
Time will tell. Exciting...

Nick is indeed doing a fine job here.
I'm happy for you that the problem got solved Don.
My MSFS is running fine but I did learn a lot here, in case I may get in trouble.
So Nick, thanks a million for the help.- 1

Have you looked at Orbx Trees or Terraflora? They are good tree replacement packages.
-
Are you by any chance using DX12? If so, revert to DX11 and see if the problem persists.

I am pretty sure it is solely Microsoft's decision (maybe partly also Asobo's) what will be included in a World Update.
My thought also. I guess Orbx is only making the plane on behalf of MS.

Sad to see it vanished.
I find Lana's cafe just as classic and historic as Meigs Field. So, there is a task for Orbx to do something about it.

I'm looking forward to WU NZ and am very happy to see Milford Sound as a detailed airport.

For what it's worth, I use the Warthog stick, throttle and pedals. All three were instantly recognised by MSFS. I simply used the options within MSFS to assign commands to the switches etc. I did not use anything else.
Same here. Totally plug and play.

While there is a freeware NZMF, I'm awaiting a payware version. I do hope Northern Skies will make one with all new textures.
I'm afraid if Orbx makes it, they will use the textures from FSX/P3D which are nice but a little obsolete for a next gen sim.
-
I haven't encountered this. Maybe because I'm on half the refresh rate sync rate (30Mhz with 60Mhz monitor).
My GPU (1080ti) runs much smoother with this setting. -
Question is: who has the building height right? Orbx or default MSFS?

Microsoft store. Updates etc were buggy but seems like it has all been streamlined in the latest update. Last update I opened the game, it said an update was required, I was presented with a download window, clicked on accept and an hour or so later I was up to date and flying.
Exactly my experience too. I never had any problems with MS-Store besides a little quirky install method but it looks like it is sorted out.

That depends in large part on your bandwith and of course also on your pc specs and your settings.
Could be but I see excellent PG cities (Barcelona, Orlando, Tokyo, Seattle to name a few) alternating with bad melted ones (London, Paris, Vancouver) on the same computer and same day. Microsoft (Jorg) already stated that it depends on the source they can get. The original Vancouver PG was better than the version in WU11.

I remember something Nick said a long time ago. Fly realistically at a VFR altitude of 1500ft and everything looks ok. Fly a few hundred fleet AGL then the buildings do and will look like jelly. I am happy at VFR 1500ft
True but in November, the helicopters make their official entrance in the sim.
Helicopters are often landing on rooftops, landing pads and free space in big cities.
PG is not suitable for this type of flying.

From what I recall they even are more FPS friendly due to efficient texture sheets so that the texture calls go faster.

First thing you can do is to find some objects in the sim which are shown on the product page.
I believe you can also check in the Content Manager if they appear in the list.
REX AccuSeasons - no snow
in Microsoft Flight Simulator
Posted
To my knowledge REX is not about creating snow. MSFS does that and I think you have to look there.
Unfortunately, I cannot help you with that other than checking the dates and maybe customize a preset to move the snow coverage slider.
