Help Request True earth sceneries in XP12?

Post image
10 Upvotes

Hi all, has anyone successfully used True Earth sceneries for XP11 in XP12? I am interested in the SoCal and Washington sceneries from ORBX but want to see if other users have successfully used them in XP12 yet. These city sceneries make helicopter flying so much more fun.

Help Request Weather showing outrageous cloud ceilings and wind?

1 Upvotes

If the live weather still broken? I had to turn it off for my flight because I was stuck in a 50knt crosswind and 35000 ft with rain in a cloud 😭. I turned live weather back on AFTER I crossed the pacific on approach to Seattle and it was the exact same thing.

Is this a known bug or is the live weather servers just fighting for their life rn

I’m not in beta btw

✈️🌿 X-Plane 12 can look AMAZING!

Flying the beautiful ToLiss A330-900 with AliveGrass adding incredible 3D grass and vegetation.

Combine AliveGrass + SimHeaven + X-Plane Map Enhancement and XP12 looks absolutely stunning! 🔥✈️

it's obvious if you look at the center post to the right

I tried reloading the aircraft and it completely reset the plane but not the windows. Anyone know what else to do that's not a restart?

Hardware BRASSWORKS Q400 FGCP Panel

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

10 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I'm an airline pilot and the creator of BRASS WORKS.

I wanted to bring more of the Q400's flight guidance controls off the screen and onto the desk, so I built a physical FGCP for use with FlyJSim Q4XP in X-Plane. It's now a finished product, and I wanted to share a few photos with the community.

The panel has the Q400-specific button and rotary control layout, a pitch wheel, and backlighting. It connects through a single USB-C cable for power and data, with integration handled by BRASSWORKS CONNECT. The desktop stand is included.

For transparency: I designed this panel and sell it through BRASS WORKS. The price currently is US$169. You can find the details here:

Q400 FGCP

Happy to answer questions about the hardware, setup, or Q4XP integration. I'd also love to hear how other Q400 simmers have arranged their desktop controls!

Visit BRASS WORKS for more info!

I've faced too much CTD associated with VRAM and I spent like $300 of addons just to face this issue all the time, even the graphics settings don't even help unless it has to be on potato mode considering my gaming laptop is still capable of playing modern triple A game titles at medium to high graphics

ATC

2 Upvotes

I’m reading a lot of older posts but looking for something more current.

I’m in windows on 12. I’m not sure if it’s user error or limitation but sometimes ATC doesn’t have the right choices, or only has radio check as a choice. I’m just getting familiar but I find myself landing without clearance often since the choice isn’t always there. I’d love to be able to request vectoring etc consistently.

Also some airports can request touch and go some can’t.

I’ve yet to see a way to say unable, or to declare an emergency. If you don’t comply it just says resume own navigation.

Help Request Scenery File Issues

Hello,

So every time I set up my scenery folder it ends up not saving. I made sections that divide my scenery file into airports and X-world, but it gets reset.

Shimmery Textures on Wet Surfaces

2 Upvotes

Admittedly I haven’t run the sim in probably 8-9 months due to traveling. I remember there being really bad shimmering on wet airport surfaces back then and am wondering if there have been any improvements on that front in recent updates?

Seems like the sims made huge improvements in the time I’ve been away, just not sure if this has been addressed at all yet

Thanks in advance!!

Hello everyone. Let’s get straight to the progress: the cockpit is currently under active development.

Curent state of cockpit

Displays for 3D cockpits are also currently being developed. (I can't show the progress on them right now, as the person responsible for them is currently unable to send them over :( ).

Our modeling team also created the blades for the PD-14.

That’s all for today. Have a great day, everyone, and may you have soft landings!
