The photogrammetry around Cork is now absurdly good

VR is very nice indeed. Is there a way to tweak the graphics so it looks less shimmery and blocky in places?

Fenix have released their A319/A321 - bargain at £40 for both.
You can make a copy of the main file, can't remember which exactly, but you can Google it.Just bought this and downloading it now. My partner's internet is very slow and expect a couple of days before I can play.
Then you never have to make the long download again, mine took 4 days in the first instance!
I used openxr (with reverb) to mess around with stuff, but I still get poor looking graphics.
I've come to the conclusion that it's just how it is in VR? But the experience is superb, so makes up for it.

Is there any major difference in flying them to the a320 ?
I wish someone would hurry up and make a payware a380 or 747, kinda bored of all these similar airliners that seem to get released.

The flight deck layouts are largely the same, but they each have their own handling nuances. The A319 is a pocket rocket which will get you in and out of smaller fields. The A321* has the range, but you can very easily spank its backside on the tarmac.
*sharklets and A321 additional fuel tanks to come for free in a later update.

Anyone had issues with VR? I have the reverb, used to be fine, haven't played it since the update and now it just crashes as soon as I switch to VR mode.
Checked I'm in DX11 and I tried without openXR, but it still just crashes?
Super annoying!

This is only an issue with the h145, everything else in fine.
I think the issue is with WMR and trying to reinstall and kinda messed my PC up.
So fresh windows install, start again and it should hopefully be ok, like it used to be!!
I did nothing to break it lol, just didn't play it for a while.

Haha, yes, it's very frustrating. It's worked for months and months. Occasional hiccup, but that was mainly to the reverb overheating, so I 3D printed (well a friend did) a new face plate and attached a fan, curtsey of someone else's design, and it's been brilliant.
But today, it's really taken a dive lol
Could have been any other aircraft, there's loads it could have chosen from....but no, mess up on the one I love and fly all the time.

Looking for some help with the default Cessna Caravan autopilot in MSFS 2020.
I'm currently flying the default Cessna Caravan and having issues with autopilot during landings—it won't capture the glideslope.
Here’s what I’m doing:
After takeoff, I press the CDI button to select GPS, set my altitude, and enable autopilot. I engage NAV and ALT Hold. Then I use Vertical Speed mode to manage my climb.
As I approach the airport, I tune into the ILS frequency and begin my descent using ALT Hold and Vertical Speed mode.
Once closer to the ILS, I press the CDI again to switch from GPS to ILS, ensuring NAV mode is still active. The autopilot captures the localizer fine, and I can see the glideslope indicator on my instruments.
When I press the Approach (APP) mode to capture the glideslope, the plane completely ignores it, with ALT Hold still engaged. Even when I turn off ALT Hold and leave APP on, it doesn’t capture the glideslope. In some cases, APP mode turns itself off, and ALT Hold re-engages automatically.
What am I missing here?
It’s not a huge issue, but sometimes I want to let the plane handle the landing for me.

From memory I don’t think you need to switch the CDI from Nav mode to ILS. You just stay on NAV mode until you enable APP mode. It’s been a while since I flew it though, mostly use the black square analog caravan now rather than the default one.
Try the Cessna 172 which has the same autopilot system (I think) and see if you have the same issue in that.

Nothing's been confirmed but there are several in the trailer. None of which are an A380 as far as I remember.
