Prepar3D (P3D), is a separate simulator from Lockheed-Martin. While it was originally based on the same code as FSX, it has been developed over the years to where add-ons for the latest version...

When you first install MSFS you can select the drive used for the Packages by following the guide below. I installed mine to G:\MSFS\Packages, for example.

I will miss it as I find the Tapatalk interface is still better for browsing the forum.

That is only an option for the older Intel based Macs. All new models use Apple's own Apple Silicon processors and no long support Boot Camp. You can run Windows in a virtual machine, but you need to...

X-Plane and FLightgear are the primary choices. Which Mac do you have? I'm not sure if either sim has been updated to natively support the latest Apple Silicon CPUs.

EVGA is a good brand to go with. If you can get a higher end 3080, like the Ti model, I would go for it.

Regarding the typo I was referring to, you did again. :D A 2700K CPU will not fit in that...

What SSD model is it? Are there any firmware updates for it? Does it happen with any other sims or games? Are there any errors in the Windows event logs?

When it comes to computer specs and troubleshooting or recommendations, it helps to be accurate to avoid confusion. So in this case you must be talking and i7 12700K, which is very different than an...

They must be talking about the i7-12700K as an i7-2700k will not work in that motherboard. And, yes, an i7 2700K would be a bottleneck with a 3080 series GPU.

There are more Xbox compatible peripherals and controllers coming from the likes of Thrustmaster and Honeycomb, and probably others. However, I wouldn’t expect the selection to match what is...

I’m referring to the Rolling Cache, which is managed in the Data settings. See the guide below for more details.
...

It sounds like the online scenery functionality isn't enabled in your Data settings under General Options. Make sure the Online Functionality, Bing Data and Photogrammetry are all enabled.

As for...

Did you clear the cache in the sim? Made sure the online scenery is enabled?

Are you sure you didn't get the World Update X itself through the Marketplace? The official instructions and my experience is that you have to manually get them yourself.
...

Did you buy it (yes it's free, but you still need to "purchase" it) from the Marketplace inside the sim? It isn't automatically added to your account.

You must have been adding airports as FSX itself only came with around 24,000 airports out of the box. And at least a few of those were not entirely accurate. MSFS is far better in this regard...

Do you have the latest updates available through the MS Store app (both for MSFS and Gaming Services in particular)? You could also try signing out and logging back in.

Guru3D has some benchmarks for MSFS, though they are getting a bit old now and don't cover the latest CPUs or GPUs. Still useful to get a good idea though.

It depends a bit on the Chromebook, but it is possible to install Android apps and games as well as Linux programs.

It's possible to install Steam to a Chromebook, and then run some games with Linux support that way. However, Chromebooks are very under powered for most games, including flight sims. You could use...

Some people seem to have better luck with Steam, others have no trouble with the MS Store. One big difference, if relevant to you, is that buying through the MS Store will let you install the sim on...

The update process is rather cumbersome. When it comes to the Marketplace vs Content Manager, the difference is in whether you are downloading new or updating existing content. In other words, when a...

The OP talked about FBW's GitHub page in the other thread about FBW problems with flying.



Each project has their own account on GitHub:

https://github.com/flybywiresim

Based on a reply in another thread, I think there is some confusion about what GitHub is. GitHub is not flybywire's personal website, but is an online source code repository for developer's that use...

I'll see your gaming chair and raise you a gaming bed. :pilot:
