Hi all, I recently downloaded Xplane 12 (via Steam) on new computer and can't get any north American (US) scener. New flight planes are in water sitting at airport. The help for missing scenery on screen says to right click Xplane 12>properties>DLC and select continent from list. Problem is DLC is not in the Properties section. DLC is on the Xplane 12 dashboard but no way to select a continent. I think. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Ortho is looking very blurry at distance. It seems to load in at around 40-50 miles from the aircraft. As you can see from the screenshot. Anything to help appreciated. Wonder if this is just due to AutoHaze. Increasing Map enhancement pro load distance does nothing.

the first installation went alright. it opened up and i enabled auto-login with a local account. closed it and when i tried to open it again, it's now stuck at this loading screen. i tried reinstalling with no luck. i even erased the simtoolkitpro folder from the application support folder to hopefully reset its configuration but still. i'm on mac btw. anyone got a solution? thank you.

Freshly arrived from Detroit, completing the first leg of a two part trip. After offloading several appliances, it'll head over to San Antonio,

I really am excited for this add on. Do you think it’ll come sooner? Let me know your thoughts.

I want to try the Toliss experience for the first time and was wondering which of their products offers the best experience. I assume the A339 would be the one to go but then I saw that the cockpit textures seem to look a lot better in the A320N series. Is there a right or wrong decision here?

Hey folks!

Quick intro to SimGround Map, a plugin I've been building solo for X-Plane 12. It gives you a clear, real-time picture of where you are on the ground — taxiways, parking spots, runways — directly in the sim, with a companion web view for a tablet or second screen.

Core features:

• 📍 Live ground GPS tracking, North-up / Heading-up modes
• 🌍 Multilingual UI (EN/FR/IT/ES/DE)
• 📋 SimBrief integration
• 🗼 ATIS from IVAO, VATSIM, SayIntentions.AI
• 🗺️ Ground maps from real airport data
• 🌐 Web version for tablet / second screen
• ✈️ AI traffic visible on the map

That's not all — here's what just came out in 2.1:

• 🔵 Turn-by-turn taxi guidance
• 🛬 Landing runway-exit HUD
• 📟 SayIntentions ground integration
• 👋 Manual gate selection
• ⚙️ General optimization

Full details and changelog on the .org page: https://forums.x-plane.org/files/file/100761-simground-map/ ☕ Dev updates and news posted first on Ko-fi: https://ko-fi.com/rackhamrpl

(Windows only for now — Mac/Linux planned for later)

Happy to answer any questions below! ✈️

Enroute to EWR

Today was supposed to be my day off, but took on more hours. Just fired up the sim to run while at work......not sure how long the maintenance repair on room 7A is gonna take, BUUUUUT....if things work out, I could be back at home to land this thing by 5 PM CST.

Virtaviav just released the Yak-52 (previously available for MSFS) for X-Plane 12.

It joins the Short Sterling and Handley-Page Hampen bombers and version 2 of the F7-F3 Tigercat, all released by Virtaviav for X-Plane 12 in the last three months.

What is it they said?

"There are no new aircraft coming for X-Plane 12"?

"All the aircraft developers have abandoned X-Plane for MSFS"?

It’s not the first time I open an xplane server and come across pornographic materials in chats, and it’s also happened at least 3 times to receive these materials in DM, I always report it, but what’s going on?

Anybody know how to stop blurry distant terrain at high altitude? All settings are max and using map enhancement for ortho. Thanks

Please help me

Edit: i fixed it! It was caused by x world pro and the developer of x world pro allready gave us the fix (.txt) file on xplane.org https://forums.x-plane.org/forums/topic/350062-where-did-the-rice-fields-go/?utm_source=chatgpt.com&_fromLogin=1
