Re: MSFS Latest Update Available

A320 is now unflyable with the autopilot on. With the AP active the plane just increases turning until eventually it screws itself into the ground. And that's with or without a flight plan loaded. Follow up to this... I set 10% null zones on all my controller axes and that seems to have cured it. S...

Re: MSFS Latest Update Available

I can understand why they make these updates mandatory but oh my giddy aunt this one has been an epic disaster for me and of course it can't be reverted. A320 is now unflyable with the autopilot on. With the AP active the plane just increases turning until eventually it screws itself into the ground...

Re: FS2020 Mach Loop

You're right about the auto generated buildings. Where there is 3d data (as in some US cities and for some peculiar reason Portsmouth and Southampton in the UK) the sim generates using that. Elsewhere it just does the best it can. Sometimes the buildings can be a bit odd if you know the area! For ex...

Re: OrbX London for MS2020

One thing that Orbx hope to be able to remedy in future is the slightly annoying problem that vehicles crossing the river use the flat default bridges, not the 3d bridges that Orbx provide so they look as if they are running underneath. Apparently they can't fix this with the current SDK bit it is a...

Re: OrbX London for MS2020

I think they have done a decent job with a fix release. They have allowed the higher resolution Asobo objects (such as Tower Bridge and the Shard) to remain visible and they have fixed HMS Belfast to point the right way! To me it's a big improvement on the out-of-box version of London and, for the m...

Re: Head Tracker for your smart phone...
