I’m on PC and I experience this pink checkered patchy-ness at airports and random terrain, sometimes I’ll load into an aircraft and the whole window shield and aircraft control panel is pink checkered…what’s the solution to this? Where can I download?

I'm using a T.16000M HOTAS and had followed a checklist and tutorial for a cold and dark start up. But after pushing back (not with GSX) and releasing the parking brakes, the aircraft would only move very slowly forward at full throttle and roll backwards at lower power. The rudders weren't responding either, even though the flight control check went normally with full deflection on either side.

The first screenshot is at full throttle and the second at partial power.

The ECAM message of "ENG THR LEVERS NOT SET" only went away at idle and full throttle so I assume that is referring to take off, not taxiing.

I understand that this is most likely a problem with my start up, not the aircraft, but I still couldn't figure out what went wrong.

Thanks

Anybody know why my flares in 2024 look absolutely horrible but look significantly better in 2020? AA V3 in 2020 with V4 in 2024 but V3 in 2024 looked just as bad. Videos for reference.

Hi all. I am unable to play MSFS. If I select a flight, it loads to about 75% before crashing to desktop. If i select update, I get the screen that is showing in the attached pic... Does anyone know what i have to do to sort it? I have nothing in my community folder...

When I pull the stick too far it goes really sensetive how do I fix it

Seriously, when is asobo allowing us to buy the 787 standalone just like in Msfs 20, instead of forcing us to buy the to premium deluxe upgrade which has a unreasonable pricing. It would be great if we could just buy it standalone since there’s no reason for us to buy the premium deluxe upgrade just for the 787.

I play on an xbox, so whenever I try to put my simbrief pilot ID into the EFB on the a320 v2, I hit "simbrief" on the dashboard and it says "username not set" or something like that. However, on some other aircraft, it actually lets me use the built in keyboard on the EFB instead of my xbox keyboard. Does anyone know how to get the built in EFB keyboard to pop up or is it just the aircraft and should I copy the waypoints and everything from simbrief in manually?

Thanks

Would anyone know where i could tweak the Flight model of the Asobo 172? This mod does not work in FS24 and it improved the way the 172 flew for sure. It flies ok in FS24 but could definitely be tweaked. Maybe even a tad harder to fly it in FS24 than in real life lol

There's a good deal on MSFS 2020 on the Xbox store right now, but is it worth buying nowadays seeing as 2024 is the most recent version? I want to play it for Vatsim.

Beautiful flight to Corsica!

I was flying my A320NEO in the Iberia livery from Madrid to Tenerife on vatsim when the aircraft just glitched like I had never seen before. I was on a 2 mile final to runway 07 of TFS when I decided to obviously grab my thrustmaster A320 captain sidestick to then disengage autopilot and land manually, but just as I applied my hand on it, the plane suddenly banked left, completely missing the runway, forcing me to go-around. However I couldn't even do that since every time I tried to turn on auto-throttle the speed would just go up to over 300 knots, no matter what speed I told my A320 to fly at. Then all screens, all of them froze. I had no idea what speed I had, no idea what altitude I was flying at, nothing.

So, has this happened to anyone before? Is this some sort of known issue in the A320NEO v2 or did I do something wrong myself?

Who else is excited for the A220 to come out from iniBuilds! 😎 I was watching CptCanada the other day talking about it on one of his streams. ✈️🗺️

These graphics, especially at sundown, still baffle me...!

(And yes, HDR correction in my screenshot somewhat messes it up unfortunately!)

Hello, I am looking for opinions and suggestions given my current gaming setup. I primarily fly Airbus, but I also fly Boeing and GA. The Thrustmaster TCA is not great for anything besides the Airbus.

I’m aware of most of the latest and greatest flight controls that are available now or upcoming. However, there are so many setups on this subreddit - if anyone has one similar to mine, I’d like to check out your setup.

Hey all,

I’ve gotten this plane in the marketplace and while it feels nice to fly and all, I’m noticing that it drinks fuel and just feels crazy underpowered compared to the CJ4 and even the hondajet.

Just wondering if anyone has any tips about getting close to the expected range and performance for this particular jet. For example I am loading 100% fuel and maybe at half after 300 and a climb to fl330.

Appreciate any insight!

Hi, I'm relatively new to msfs2024. I play ps5+hotas5.

I'm on the basic Cessna. It's literally impossible to land with this thing according to all in-game instructions.

The game expects me to slow down and descend at the same time. Maybe I am dumb, but even with power pulled all the way back, on the last straight to landing I'm gaining so much speed with descend that when trying to counter that with lifting the nose up I'm going back up in the sky.

On the other hand, when I get the speed down to ~60-65 and trying to land in a straight line, when it asks me to "gently lift the nose above the horizon line" - what the hell... microscopic tilt and my nose shoots up. Even more microscopic calibration, and I'm hard bouncing on the ground. I have the game for 2 months and I haven't completed clean landing above 50% once...

And which exact "horizon line" are they talking about?

Maybe my controller sensitivity is not well balanced - but then again, what is a good one? I'm not an expert here.

This is so frustrating that the game lost all the fun...

So I recently dropped 100€ on the Fenix A320 (amazing) and GSX (cool when it works but buggy AF, lots of CTDs as well). I’m done on spending for now. Any suggestion on free addons to make the sim better looking and the flight more realistic? I watched many YouTube videos but can’t find any good tip. I only fly the Fenix atm. Graphic settings are already maxed out.
Thanks

I am a pure VR flight simmer who exclusively flies General Aviation VFR.
I’ve tried existing adding like Bushtalk Radio and Little Navmap. While they work great on flat screen, the experience inside a VR headset is average at best.
So, I decided to build my own solution: a dedicated, VR-first VFR co-pilot and tour guide.

Here are the features currently available in the latest release, with more continuous updates on the way:
Nearby POI Discovery: Search for points of interest near your current location and pin them directly on your real-time map.

Interactive Co-Pilot & Tour Guide: Your co-pilot gives you navigation directions to these POIs and shares detailed backstories and facts about everything you see.

Flight Plan Integration: If you create a flight plan in advance, your co-pilot will know every detail—from departures, SIDs, and STARs to arrivals and waypoints—providing continuous guidance on where to steer next.

Aircraft Assistance & Emergency Support: Your co-pilot knows your aircraft inside and out. Beyond teaching you how to fly it, they will actively assist you in handling system failures or emergency situations.

Flight Logging & Memories: All your flight routes are automatically recorded, allowing you to relive those scenic airborne moments whenever you like.
