**** Official Microsoft Flight Simulator Thread ****

Anyone who's struggling with the A320N, download the FlyByWire 32NX Mod, it makes it so much better than the Vanilla plane. Loads of tutorials and it's dead easy to learn, improves so many of the systems and handling.

flybywiresim/a32nx: The A32NX Project is a community driven open source project to create a free Airbus A320neo in Microsoft Flight Simulator that is as close to reality as possible. It aims to enhance the default A320neo by improving the systems depth and functionality to bring it up to payware-level, all for free. (github.com)
 
I see in the announcement of the next update just Birmingham, Bristol, Cambridge, Oxford, and London are getting the photogrammetry treatment as well as some other sights.
I haven't got MFS2020 yet as i am waiting to build a new pc when the parts are a bit cheaper and available.
I have obviously seen videos of part of the UK but are other Cities and Towns anywhere near to reality other than Portsmouth and Southampton. Thatched cottages for instance in Stratford on Avon
 
Just flew over Cranwell....no college, disappointed however the game is bonkers gorgeous.
Running a 3700x 2070sup and 64 gig ram at 4k with everything to high with a few ultra settings and it's pretty buttery, expected it to be harsher on my system.


Now I need to start to focus on one aircraft at a time instead of jumping in them asap.

The printer function they have just implemented is awesome. Print out all your landing data and have it sit in front of you. Fantastic feature.

The dev version has a “working” tablet too. It’s not fully functional yet but you can see the menu system and some of it works.

Amazing stuff, really is. I think Asobo has been incredibly impressed with them and is looking at ways of making it available in marketplace without stepping on any legal toes given its unlicensed... for now though the installer is fantastic anyway.

This is actually the correct download page for dev and stable editions isn’t it?

https://flybywiresim.com/a32nx
 
You can install either the stable, dev or experimental version right from the installer which is the easiest way as that will also check for updates when you run it.
 
Another handy feature would be the ability to save custom graphics profiles. T always seems to be the interior of airliners that hammer FPS, so it would be good to be able to switch between profiles for GA and airliner flying.
 
Grrrrrr... I’m thinking I’ve been cursed by the gods of MSFS!

Decided to buy the DVD version rather than the installer, as we’ve not got a great internet connection speed here. Took so long to arrive that the rainforest thought it was lost in the post, then when it did arrive, the installer gets to DVD 4 and fails, as the DVD errors.

Guess I’m going to be downloading it anyway.... it’d have probably worked out quicker if I’d just done that in the first place!

Was you engaging the heading selection after dialling in the heading?

I've followed the advice from here and installed the dev A320, autopilot now works

A320 autopilot flying in circles - Default Aircraft / Airliners - Microsoft Flight Simulator Forums

Managed Manc - Barcelona, however when I arrived at Barcelona, ATC wanted me to stay at 7000ft, despite me flying right over the EL-Prat airport, and then I was like 8 miles south in the ocean, so I took manual control and just piloted the plane into landing manually.

Must be a bug surely?

Which runway was you flying into? Was this on final approach? Barca has high minimums in the airspace around it on the mainland due to noise abatement.
 
So I've had a few crashes to desktop on the flight loading screen, so I decided to check the ram usage and wow this game gobbles all 16gb of my ram whilst loading is this normal?
So if I increase my virtual memory to help should I be increasing it for my Windows drive or the drive the game is installed on :confused:
