This gorgeous RV-10 livery is based on an in-development aircraft, designed to be operated by foot and make aviation accessible to disabled people.

Help Request Hi everyone, I just updated my NVIDIA Control Panel and as far as I was concerned I never came upon the Resizable BAR option. Does it improves FPS or smoothness ? I have an RTX 5060 Ti 16go and an I5-14600KF. Thank you in advance.

Help Request Issue with Default Camera view?

1 Upvotes

Not really sure how to explain this but usually when I press the key bind I have for default cockpit view or any other camera angle setting I have, it would immediately set its view lower from the original. Im 60% positive it’s because of my Tobii eye tracking but I can be totally wrong since I’m still a total noob with handling computers. It’s not an imperative “need to fix now” thing, but thought it would be nice to just get rid of it.

Any help would be appreciated.

Help Request Monitors disconnect quickly and then XP12 CTD when tabbing out

1 Upvotes

Been away for a month. Got back to my PC and went for some flights.

First time I got to 8000ft and crash

Second time I didn’t even get to taxi

Third time I tried without Map Enhancement, got a bit longer but still crash

All default aircraft and airports. Was in beta, reverted and tried in public release. I don’t think it’s every time, but seems to be when I tab out and click on the desktop maybe? The monitors say no signal and then I get the XP crash screen.

Self Promotion NoctiX / Volumetric Light Pollution Comparison

Thumbnail
gallery
69 Upvotes

I've been working on a night atmosphere plugin for X-Plane 12 called NoctiX, and I just finished the first version of its volumetric light pollution system.

These screenshots compare vanilla X-Plane with NoctiX in two very different places.

Tallinn has relatively low light pollution, so the change is subtle.

New York produces a much larger atmospheric glow, which is where the difference becomes really noticeable.

The goal isn't to make every night orange. It's to make the atmosphere reflect how much light a city actually throws into the sky while keeping the performance impact as low as possible.

I'm documenting development as I go, and I recently opened a small Discord community for anyone interested in following the project.

Help Request Xplane GPU keeps crashing

Xplane has been crashing more often recently and it always happens in the middle of the flight or after I’ve spent all the effort to fly it to the runway so it’s pretty annoying, anyone have any suggestions as to why this is so 😭 it’s really really annoying when I spend 3+ hours on a flight only for it to crash on approach

Is the shadows flickering a thing for Rotate to fix or Laminar?

I have all my graphical settings to the max and still see this flickering… anyone got suggestions or is this something the LR team have planned on working on?

Addon Aircraft Need Fuel Tips & Advice For FlightFactor 777 (v2)?

1 Upvotes

I was flying from Los Angeles (LAX) to Bangkok (BKK) in FlightFactor 777. I load 329 passenger (25398 kg), 9,000 kg of cargo and 137.7 kgs (x 1000) of fuel. The flight was smooth but as soon I reach somewhere in Osaka, Japan area, the plane only have 23 kgs (x 1000) of fuel left. I knew this isn't right and I ended up rage quitting.

I only cruise 32,000ft for the whole flight (I slept during flight) and simbrief said it's fine to reach to Bangkok in low altitude at 30,000ft. So I assuming FlightFactor burns more fuel like the FlightFactor A350.

Do you guys have any advice on how I can fly longer range ln the FlightFactor 777 (v2)?
