wain71 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 so yesterday I loaded MSFS, I had planned my flight which was from EIDW to Paris, this picture was what I was greeted with, I then kept getting a warning that I was not connected to the internet, I was....SIM loaded GSX wouldn't play, a spinning wheel in their menu, then eventually I gave up and cancelled GSX, only to find that after prepping the flight and starting the engines my controller wouldn't work, I went into options and they seemed to work, back into the flight - no they don't.....I eventually shut down the sim and flew p3dv5.4...... today I flew XP12, Great flight and all worked as expected.....just loaded the sim now and again MSFS didn't like my throttle, I reset it now but it's so frustrating when you get a small window of time to fly and it plays silly burgers!!!! 1 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodger Pettichord Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Sorry about that, Wayne. Microsoft figured you didn't have enough worries and so thought they'd send you a few more. 😄 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussieflyer38 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Yep, had the same4e thing happen to me on a number of occasions, never had this happen in P3D, had very few problems there. With MSFS Ihave had continuous control problems, the days it happens I just give up and don't fly. Don 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Q Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 P3D 5, for me, for this reason. Maybe 6 down the road. Not really tempted by MSFS. Now if developers would realize that MSFS is not the only show in town and produce add-ons for P3D I'd be very happy, and part with quite a bit of money.

Stillwater Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 13 hours ago, wain71 said: it's so frustrating when you get a small window of time to fly and it plays silly burgers I absolutely agree. Though I have had these issues with p3d (and more with fsx) in the past as well, depending on which high-level-plane to use. 3 hours ago, Ken Q said: Now if developers would realize that MSFS is not the only show in town and produce add-ons for P3D I'd be very happy, and part with quite a bit of money. And I agree here as well. I am still looking for the full set of study-level planes (and good prop planes like those from A2A), a decent weather program (with historic real weather), PeopleFlow, seasons and much more. MSFS is shiny, but does not make progress towards our old standards. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry @John Heaton not starting a SIM war just pointing out my frustrations at the SIM I was using, last night xplane had trees all over the road thanks to Orbx partners forest add-ons, they're all as bad as each other in my book.. 12 minutes ago, John Mac said: It’s letting you know storm Agnes is on the way!
