  1. I was pretty negative on this sim when I first got it. But I've found that some things were just a case of me learning things. For example, I was flying in legacy fsx mode, but I've found that most asobo planes fly better in modern mode. Also, I found that the fsx autopilot wasn't totally accurate, specially on the airliners. The scenery has always been great. There are some things that I still don't like, like lack of the multiwindow features fsx had, but overall I have a good time now that I've learned these things.
  2. I think someone is editing/deleting posts to this thread without telling us.
  3. If you hit windows-G it will bring up a game resourse monitor, so you can see exactly what your using. If anything is only half used, no point in upgrading it. I recommend a rtx 3080 graphics card.
  4. The title of your post isn't very informative
  5. The update deleted some key assignments. You just go into settings and reassign them. It's in camera/cockpit. Something like move cockpit view left/right. Move cockpit view up/down.
  6. Yes, exact same thing. I reassigned them in settings and they work ok.
  7. After the update, my arrows keys would no longer move around the cockpit. I reassigned them in settings and they're working ok.
  8. As far as I know, there's no way to have the cockpit view, and an external view, displayed at the same time, either on one screen, or on separate monitors. That's one thing I dislike the most about msfs 2200.
  9. The way it is now, if you try add ons, you have to expect trouble.
  10. Just did an ILS landing with the a320 neo. It also uses nav1 for the ILS.
  11. Ok thanks. I didn't know that.
  12. I've been trying to do a ils landing with the xcub for a while, but it hasn't been working. I haven't been getting the line on the display telling me which Side of the runway I'm on. I set the nav2 frequency to the ils frequency, turn nav2 on and set the gps/vor switch to vor. But then I noticed on the display,it was saying vor1. So I set the nav1 frequency to the ils frequency and selected nav1, and then i got the line, so the ils landing worked! But i thought planes always use nav2 for the ils frequency?
  13. I'm not sure you can avoid updates. Generally, they make it better anyway.
  14. Anybody notice sometimes the yoke won't hide? It just happened to me on the tbm 930.
  15. I had one plane that was flying terrible in fsx mode, and I changed it to modern, and it worked fine. Then, I had another plane, that was flying terrible in modern mode, and I changed it to fsx mode, and it worked fine. They were both planes that came with fs2200.
  16. What I meant by wrong, is that you couldn't fly the real plane, they way it flew in fsx. So I guess that's true. I don't mind them changing it to a accurate model, but they should tell you how to fly it with documentation, rather than force you to learn it by trial and error, or reading forums, or watching YouTube videos.
  17. I agree 100%! Except you didn't have to set the vs. It was set automatically to the default vs when you turn altitude on. So was fsx so wrong, or is fs2200 wrong? Does anybody know that?
  18. Three days ago we got hit by a typhoon, which knocked out my internet. I wanted to see if msfs2200 would still run. I ran it, and it said "no internet detected do you want to run in offline mode?". I said yes and I ran it. I still wanted to get the bing scenery, so I flew from the same airport i Had flown the day before. I thought the rolling cache would have the Bing scenery. But it didn't have the good scenery, only the fsx type scenery. I checked my settings, and the rolling cache was set to 0. I don't know how it Got like that, maybe because I was offline. Today still no Internet. I flew from an area that I had previously saved a manual cache. I checked the settings, and it was still there. But when I flew, still no bing scenery. So what's the point of the cache? My wife lives where there is no Internet, and I was hoping to take my laptop there, and have bing scenery, but it Doesn't seem to work that way.
  19. I'm flying the a320 after today's update. I'm on autopilot, altitude and speed. Speed was 303 knots. I was climbing but The vs was only 500 fpm. I changed it to 1,800 fpm. So it increase the climb rate, but then it decreased the speed to 255 Even though it was only at 60% power. Then after it got to my altitude, it increased the speed back to 303, like it didn't, Want to use full power. Why would it do that? It seems like on autothrottle, it doesn't want to go above 59% power.
  20. The Arizona sank. It's still there but underwater.
  21. Some can be used but they have to be modified first and don't work 100%. Do a google search to find programs that convert them.
  22. Even if it's a addon, it should still work ok. It's called backward compatibility. You can't expect vendors to have to change their addon's after every update. And it shouldn't crash the program. It's called error handling. Always blame the victim!
