  1. It's been a while since I installed MSFS 2020, and I don't recall any specific installation procedures, but to generally answer your question, yes, you can install Steam to any other drive other than C. You can also choose to install Steam on C drive and Steam games on another drive. When installing MSFS 2020, it will place some configuration files on C drive in your users directory, regardless of which drive 2020 is installed on. I have Steam, MSFS 2020, and all my Steam games on a separate SSD.
  2. I uninstalled Xbox long ago and I've never had any problems running the sim on PC. Purchased through Steam.
  3. Check to see if you have any duplicate rudder assignments between your joy stick or yoke and keyboard. Also clear any left/right brake assignments for keyboard. I've noticed, at least for me that the sim does strange things when there are duplicate assignments. Don't know if it's a sim problem or issue with my joystick, pedals or keyboard. I used to have this skidding problem and when I removed any duplicates for rudder and cleared left/right braking on keyboard, the plane goes straight now after touchdown. If it doesn't work, at least you've eliminated one thing.
  4. This is great. Been struggling with this for so long. I do like the challenge of cross wind landings though. Does it remove or lessen effects when on approach or just when on ground?
  5. Thanks Tim. I decreased the lift_coef_flaps setting in flight_model.cfg by 2 according to post and everything's back to normal.
  6. Well that explains why my TBM is floating all the way down the runway since the update. Thanks for the info.
  7. Agree. Would be nice have different graphic profiles bound to a keystroke(s). I've looked into this and there doesn't seem to be a way. The graphic settings are located in a file called UserCfg.opt located in Roaming > Microsoft Flight Simulator. You can edit this file or have three different UserCfg profiles for example, but whatever was last set in the UI overrides any edits made to this file. It's frustrating when you are flying along at 50 fps, land in a busy or highly detailed airport and frames drop in teens. My wish would be having different profiles, like high, med and Ultra that could be loaded while in flight.
  8. I had this exact problem. ATC sound was fine with headset, but very low thru speakers. Changing speakers from surround sound to stereo in the sound control panel fixed the issue. I would check that first before proceeding further.
  9. Make sure your PC speakers are set to stereo. (assuming you have stereo speakers) 1. Go to Windows 10 settings > System > Sound (Make sure PC speaker is selected as output device) 2. Select Sound Control Panel 3. Select PC speakers 4. Click on configure button.
  10. Here's a thread discussing the location of the profile settings files. https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?326129-where-is-file-stored-for-input
  11. Came back to delete my post, but see you already posted Steve. I just did a couple test flights with tail number changed in ATC Options and it stayed. Nice. Thanks
  12. You can also edit a config file for the aircraft to make the change so you don't have to change it for each flight. https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?325032-Assigning-aircraft-registration&p=2122941#post2122941 It will remain in effect until there is an update, and then you have to edit again. Would be nice if there was a way to add tail number in your hanger, for example.
  13. Yes, I get that sometimes, but only if there was recent overcast skies. Seems something is not synced up correctly in Live Weather. With you being in England, you probably have overcast conditions a lot which compounds the issue, if you're flying locally. I do not know of any solution though. Probably a bug that needs looked into.
