Video on weak PC
Kapitan replied to bugdozer's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 General Discussion
Eeverything depends on everything you cannot go for a lot of ram if you dont have the latest motherboard, and so on...ssd, monitor frequency, resolution, proc etc he ask what would be the main priority to look at (of course tending to have a better quality sim, if not stay with fsx) so my two cents is VRAM...RTX card but GTX will do also -

VRAM the rest is the rest...but as much VRAM as you van afford in previous sim was "processor cpu"...not anymore 4 letter VRAm -
Uninstalling p3d

Nonsense. Its a business. You support by buying. Besides, thou there was a gap of twelve years, no ther company has done so much for flightsim as Microsoft, just look at the history, so my commitment is still with them in that case -

I was thinking...and curious about the simulator, correct link below https://www.a3xxflightdeck.com/trailer-1-flightdeck-a32x seems very interesting -

Yes, just checked the cockpit and its the same from FS2002 You see, analogue cockpits are for the old simmers and we are very picky about realism and detail. Unlike glass cockpits that are so new it doesnt matter the position of the gauges because people have no knowledge or reference of that plane´s layout, we old guys, we know the classic plane cockpits as our own bedroom. If a switch is a little bit outplaced to the right someone will point it out... So analogue classic cockpits must be very realistic and a precise replica with photographic quality. Its not a glass where you just throw two big MFDs and thats it.

manuals are not supposed to be printed since 1999, they are e-books in pdf format, you should get a cheap tablet or ipad and read them in bed or in the sofa if the PC is uncomfortablle, but never print them, its bad for the environment -

I hope yes, since its just a file and the code reads the flight plans. I heard the new atc and didnt like it, it changed little from 20 years ago. A 747 (Delta-148) requests pushback and gives full call sign in the beginning and end of the sentence, a second later atc repeats full call sign in the beginning and end of the sentence. Why that excessive formality? ... At least could be less formal on the second contact: “that will do, thank you for the pushback, 148, good day†(leaving out "Delta" and repeating just the three or two last numbers) The ATC is sooo unnatural, people dont talk in that tone, harsh like a military sargeant, atc contacts are more natural in real life, unfortunately i believe the people who did the recordings dont hold a pilot license. It drives me to turn off atc, its irritating, each time the plane crosses a sector border atc calls out flight following. Also, since there are different voices, it wouldnt have beeen difficult to program the game code to pick different voices from contacting ground, approach, center, etc. It could just pick a random voice and repeat the same coded reply. In an IFR flight the computer atc is excessively active with you, "November seven two Romeo, radar contact, altimeter 2992" repeated dozens of times, same tone, same voice... we need Siri ofr Alexa as atc interact haha -

well there is a reward so as to speak they are getting the game earlier supply and demand the value of beta testing is set by the thousands of simmers eager to do it for free Tom doesnt want to do it? alright, we'll ask Harry thou i bet those that find important flaws will get at least the game for free the simmers are proud of being beta testers. Though a t-shirt "beta tester for MS2020" would have been a decent reward too haha -
deluxe version will have a couple of sport analogue planes, sadly not suitable for imc or long hauls. Glass cockpit lovers think of this: these small modern planes have just one or two big mfd and thats all. what is the difference between a cockpit that has a big mfd the size of nearly half your monitor, and FS1 or FS4 from 1990 Its the same look! Looking at a glass mfd is just like an old FS4 sim I mean I would love to have one of those planes for real, thats for rich guys...wouldnt complain about the glass cockpit because surely its the safest way to flying. But to simulate it? ...naaaahh had enough of FS4

Top 80s flight sims - anyone remember these? Nostalgia trip.
Kapitan replied to iainso's topic in The Outer Marker
Yes, mid to late nineties, the makers Looking Glass released the “Jane’s†combat series, probably the best combat series of the last century. His mentor, Seamus Blackley was hired by Bill Gates and developped Xbox, so we are talking someone that made history in flightsim and gaming -

They look nice The photo of his gauges all stacked like shoe boxes didnt impressed me. I think if you are spending that money in a home built you might as well do the cheapest part, a wooden frame where you can put the gauges in a cockpit like order and the monitor as a window. Part of the immersive experience is that when you start the all-in-windows 10 p3d or xplane, your mind focus on the monitor and abstracts the rest of the room. If you are building a cockpit you will have the whole monitor (s) as outside view. However if the gauges and panel wooden framework throttle quadrant is not realistic you'll end up with a less immersive experience than all-in-windows. Besides a semi complete or poor home built cockpit soon tires you cause its the same view for whatever airplane you chose to fly. So now Im flying a Cessna and a few hours later a 737 and its the same cockpit, made and customized by you, and that is a bit disappointing. That is why, unless its a very reallistic home built, I rather stay with one monitor all-in windows -

Ghosttown, your word cant be taken seriously You are a newbie having joined in the last months just to promote VR If you were a serious simmer (flight plan, garmins, airlines, navigation, procedures etc) you would have a history of querries and posts I dont believe a word of what you are saying, you have no credibility jumping here from nowhere and start bragging about VR and about home build cockpit, by the way I saw your cockpit and those instruments are very unrealistic, a panel with round gauges but digital display? what kind of mess is that? I think you made a bad purchase there, getting rid of it is a good idea, no immersion there As I said before we need more serious simmers devoted to the likes of pmdg and other planes and route flying with the typical tasks inside a cockpit that a real flight demands, speaking out that they use nothing but VR now. An arcade style combat fighter jet like yourself seem to be, its no news that VR is great, Im sure it is Many amusement parks give you similar rides in VR fighter jets for 3 minutes inserting a token in the machine -
Upgrade everything or just ram?
Kapitan replied to GhostTown's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 General Discussion
looking at P3dv5 i think VRAM will be also a bottleneck in order to advance huge steps in the cpu potential the core is now using independently the GPU vram so 8gb I would say is the benchmark to avoid crashing As you know P3D v5 users are reporting crashes by VRAM consumption in about nearly everybody Even shift-z comes now with our VRAM availability/usage -
Top 80s flight sims - anyone remember these? Nostalgia trip.
Kapitan replied to iainso's topic in The Outer Marker
agree, Eurofighter was a jump in graphics but didnt have the gameplay of Facon 3. Later came Falcon 4 in 1996 but by then we were hooked in FS95 btw Falcon 3 was released in 1991, and Tornado 1993 I was in London in 1991 buying a IBM PS2 color computer and just that week Falcon 3 was being released. All I knew about flightsim was the FS1 So started playing the Falcon 3 from its release date and thought people didnt know what they were missing hahah -

Kapitan replied to iainso's topic in The Outer Marker
actually for glass cockpit fans, simming with FS1 or FS4 is just like having a big garmin or MFD you guys must still be thrilled by FS1, you should keep playing it
