>picrel, what your passion and support really pays for

Flying again after a long break. Downloaded more scenery and trying thailand for a change. Takeoff was a mess because there was no ATIS even though charts say there should be and the route is a mess because of my mistake but whatever I'm rusty. Slowly getting the hang of things again, it's interesting how much you forget but it all comes back.

>>534809927
I wonder how many of those projects actually end up becoming successful products. I once played a bit of VBS3 that our Army used in the past and it was shit.

>>534818609
I had troubles trying to make the program remember a custom airplane profile but it now works somehow.

Latest X-Plane 12 has pretty nice graphics sometimes.

>>534822158
Yeah, the problem are the ground textures (I have only Europe installed), the lightning is amazing and much more realistic than MSFS.
I want to give Ortho a try but I'm running out of space already.

>>534835424
what is the appeal of older sims like that and FSX? the aircraft are less modeled than even some MSFS2020 ones, the physics are inferior as well, not to mention the graphics. Is it just nostalgia?

I'm new here.

Flying a fseconomy job from iwo jima up to mainland Japan, hoping to catch the sunrise

>found some old FSX screenshots
Only a decade old mind you
>>534837000
Only literal boomers are still playing FSX and some even play FS2004, I think FlightGear has an incredibly small community that play mostly for a Space Shuttle addon which I believe is supposed to be good. That reminds me, Orbiter is still going, that has a small, autistic community too.

>>534839973
that actually still looks pretty good, disregarding the terrain

>>534840363
It's Aerosoft's Wilga X which was a decent plane, I had fun flying it, not as good as the Got Friends one for MSFS but still fun, this is the only other screenshot of it I have.

>>534837335
>Japan
Nice, let's hope it's the right kind of sunrise.

>>534840363
Also iirc that screenshot was taken in Iceland, Aerosoft had Iceland X which improved the scenery for the whole country and did some airports, it was really good, that screenshot was just some random airstrip though so looks shit. I'm getting nostalgic looking at these.

>>534823009
Do you only ever fly the 346 in XPlane?

>>534841598
He only ever flies that or what the Italian Air Force has flown in any game.

>>534842832
SPOOKY, I'm addicted to rov streams now, I'm watching Nautilis Live, the camera quality isn't as good as the Schmidt one but it's still interesting and I just leave it on a monitor all day.

>>534842832
I don't like it

>>534841598
Basically yes. I sometimes do the tutorials and fly the 172 or the M-345 but that's it for Xplane.

Does 2020/2024 even run in Proton? I bet it's a nightmare.

Just looking at the latest SU3 beta for 24 and it runs very well, over 100fps in London at night on ultra with DLSS. Also whilst flying around in drone mode I managed to see AI plane landing at London City.

I'm not installing or paying for microsoft software. I bet it requires a hotmail account or something to even play? And where does it say that, I can't see.

>>534856869
It require an account yes, most recent review for 24

>>534856952
Well, sometimes windows games run better under linux via proton. Reason is not simple, but I'd speculate sometimes it could be caused by the game's original DirectX usage being somewhat sub-optimal and since Proton translates DirectX calls to Vulkan, it could result in more optimized graphics API calls. Also some games may use Windows API's incorrectly, resulting in unnecessary CPU load and then proton comes along with its own wine based Windows API mock and the problematic call happens to be something wine just discards or whatever so it won't waste CPU anymore. But I'm no expert, just speculating since I've heard many games do in fact run better under linux via proton.

>>534857693
To add to this: performance depends on so many variables it's difficult to trust any claims by randoms on the internet. You could have a different GPU driver version on either OS, resulting in differing performance. Or different Windows version, or linux Kernel version, or you could have sub-optimally compiled Linux kernel or its modules. Or old Mesa3D if AMD GPU on Linux, or whatever. Too many variables.

Science vessel with a big science ROV that does livestreams. There was an expedition near the coast of Argentina for the past 3 weeks, in a largely uncharted canyon. The goal was to observe and safely kidnap critters for studying since the previous way of sampling the area was with nets ripping the sea floor and mangling the whatever animals they catch. It got very popular for a few reasons so there will be highlights reels in the near future.

I'm starting to really enjoy slope lift in MSFS. I don't know how well they nailed the accuracy, but it's as real as I'll probably ever experience.

>>534893604
No, you'll shoot yer dick off!

I feel like the X-Plane 12 ATC is worse than before. It's only giving visual approaches with vectoring, nothing else, even if the weather is IMC. I guess I'll have to bother to look up a good ATC plugin, if there's any for linux...

its a tight fit

Roadcraft is doing an open beta testing for the dlc available for all base game owners. Since it's a standalone it requires a separate download which means it's also very easy to pirate

>>534907053
At least here in Europe you can join a club that has shared planes, costs like 50 bucks a month and a bit of time to do maintenance work. They'll teach you how to fly too.

>I feel like the X-Plane 12 ATC is worse than before
I didn't use it because I tought I was too dumb to properly follow its orders, good to see I'm not the only one having issues.

>>535041812
What do you mean too dumb? You tried it? It was better before these 2 new X-Plane 12 version releases, now it just issues vectors and visuals for me all the time, I don't know why. It also issues nonsensical altitude changes and even if you ask some altitude it will issue an altitude change again after.

>>535042965
I meant that I didn't understand those those things you listed. It would tell me weird altitude changes and tell me to do visual approaches when I was in a thunderstorm and since I know almost nothing about proper ATC procedures I tought I was the one doing something wrong.

early morning bombing

IT'S TOO FACKIN HOT

>>535043610
>visual approaches when I was in a thunderstorm
Does the exact same for me and it's just plain wrong. If you filed an IFR plan (which in x-plane atc means you "requested clearance" after filing a flight plan), you'd assume ATC to issue you IFR procedures, not visual procedures and especially not visual procedures during a weather that's clearly IMC. I guess ATC could give you visuals even in real life even if you're IFR if the weather allows it, not otherwise and even then they would probably prefer to issue instrument approaches.

>>535045331
ATC seems like the one thing no flight sim can get right. Apparently Asobo are working with Vatsim to improve ATC in MSFS 2024, which currently mostly works until it doesn't. Beyond ATC and Sayintentions still don't support VFR for some reason, but I believe you can use either one or both in DCS so maybe you can use them in X Plane too, I'm not sure.

>>535045491
Yeah and it's actually interesting how difficult it seems to be to implement. I've actually wondered how hard would it be to code an X-Plane ATC plugin that somewhat works for IFR but I have so many other projects going on I can't afford to spend time on that. And I'm not like some kind of master programmer so if people who are way more intelligent than me cannot implement it then what chance do I have.... The reason it's interesting is because somehow I would like to assume it can't be that difficult, right? But it seems like it really is difficult.

>>535045770
I'm sure like most things in software engineering, it's a lot more complicated than you expect it will be. I've just checked and SayIntentiions supports X Plane but I don't think BeyondATC does.

>>535045982
>it's a lot more complicated than you expect it will be
Yeah, but naively if you just think about it logically without knowing any better, it seems like you have a bunch of data for an airport and you choose the procedures from that dataset based on some set of variables.

>file flight plan
>atc plugin marks departure, destination and alternate
>atc plugin builds map of route in memory
>atc plugin tracks player location, marks waypoint as checked as long as player aircraft crosses a waypoint with some distance threshold
>atc plugin has database of ifr procedures, selects one based on filed flight plan and current weather
>atc plugin has database on airspaces, commands altitude changes based on this (has to calculate trajectories and shit, difficult)

Yeah well I'm not wasting time on this anymore, it is actually difficult. Still, if I had time, I'd like to try to implement an incredibly simple, dumb, IFR ATC plugin. Dead-simple, so simple it cannot go wrong because it just follows your filed flight plan.

>>535046325
Yeah I think the complexity comes in when the flight plan isn't enforced, you can toggle this in msfs, if it has to take into account weather, traffic, and other stuff then it gets a lot more complicated.

Oh wait, they taught neither of this in school, only useless bullshit like igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rock, or what poet died from what venereal disease.

I remember they stopped the history curriculum at the fall of the Berlin Wall, because "we ran out of time for the school year". And even then, they didn't explain shit, you just had to mantra back "nineteensixtytwocubanmissilecrisisnineteensixtyeightpraguespring" when prompted by the teacher, like a good fucking parrot.

Total waste of time that only exists to keep dangerous intelligentsia elements busy, instead of plotting the replacement of normal society with some pseudo-technocratic socialist cockamamie, where the highest ranking members of state are like philosophers and human-science academics or some shit, like they usually do.

>>535167367
We should be learning about PLANES

>>535167367
This is absolutely the most low IQ braindead argument ever.
School isn't supposed to teach any of those (usually). At my school I learned how to run a business somewhat since we had lessons about ROI ROE and other business basics, but what primary and secondary schools are meant to teach you is HOW TO STUDY and learn so that you'll be able to do well regardless if you end up doing a blue collar job, white one or go to university. And in the earliest years to develop your mental plasticity.
>hurr durr why do we need to study history?
So that you don't end up like a cattle that can't think for himself and can only spew out /pol/troon ready made tv dinner slogans, and because it's just the means to make you learn how to properly learn any subject.
>how to manage personal finances
>actual life skills
>how to fix your own shit
>the importance of honor and integrity
Your parents are supposed to teach you that shit, if your family was useless it's not the fault of school system.
>Name five useful and life changing things you learned in school.

-How to work in a group of people

Is MSFS 2020 any good or should I save and wait for 2024

>>535169016
It makes no sense to buy 2020 now that 2024 is out. Just wait for a sale and buy it.

>>535169016
>>535169123
This, there's no point buying 2020 now. I've no idea when the sale will be, but SU3 'should' be out this month, probably towards the end, and I would say that'd be a good time to get it. Just remember that most of the bugs people talk about relating to 2024 are with the career mode, which was the main selling point for a lot of people.

Stopped reading there, teachers pet, since you're clearly a moron, who's only "book smarts" (i.e. learned how to memorize key magic words that the when recited you were rewarded with good-boy points).

I bet the rest of your babble is how about it's your parent's job to teach you actually important things, while not seeing the fucking connection in your mind, that school is therefore mostly useless.

I solve problems. Using skills and knowledge school never taught me, since it unfortunately doesn't involve reciting dates, the rock cycle, or identifying poetic forms.

Oh yeah, and I run my own business, and earn my own money, unlike teachers who only eat because the government graciously gives them money.

First year would have been easier if they taught us basic income vs expense in school, but alas it was more important to know that there was once a sick fuck drug addict named Baudelaire and he died of syphilis.

To which I responded with a sound argument. But since you couldn't come up with a counterargument that supports your own viewpoint on school you preferred to immediately resorts to insults and shittying up the board with your wojack dolls.
You simply ran away, and that's okay.

Holy reddit.

And I bet this is actually real in your head.

Who knows, maybe shithead was a special little boy finger-painting away in Waldorf school with the other little indigo-children, but to others, once they taught you reading and math, school was mostly a waste of time.

>>535176042
Did you at any point try to argue against even a single one of my arguments? Your counterarguments could've even been a simple

Which would've been a valid argument. But instead your immediate reply was to simply project, insult and run away.
You're doing the same thing now, instead of actually standing your ground you run away with passive aggressive remarks, just like a chick.

Again, maybe Reddit is more up your alley.

You're not entitled to have you every argument attempted to be comprehensively deboonked whenever you demand it. Maybe this is how it went in the classroom, but once more, this is the real world now. Time to grow up.

Again, my point still stands, that the only thing school teaches you is to be an obedient little trivia machine, a thoughtless parrot Since if it weren't the case, and it actually teaches you critical thinking skill as you claimed (it doesn't) you would have learned the critical thinking skills to realize to cut your losses long ago by now, instead of impotently stomping your feet that we must play by classroom debate rules. Again, like a child refusing to except the big-boy world doesn't work like his safe rounded-corners classroom world.

I mean, if you want to play that way then feel free to run away like a scared chick. You're most likely a sub 80 IQ retard who got held back in HS and developed a deeply rooted inferiority complex towards the school system. You're basically a nigger.

the argument was never about teachers, it was about school. He then constantly bought teachers in the argument probably because his whole issue with school was in reality an issue with a teacher who he thinks had a grudge against him.

You refuse to accept that and kick and scream that we have to play by your preferred rules, or else they're a poopoo meaniehead. Again, grow up.

So case closed, you're a seething teacher, bitter about being nothing more than just barely necessary.

I'd wanna say "get a real job", but we all know if that were possible, you wouldn't be a school teacher.

>We learned bullshit trivia, not real life knowledge and skills.
To me this is either:
-you were too dumb to understand why you were taught certain things (most likely)
or
-you're sadly an american whose entire school curricula is in fact simply repeating things mnemonically without understandy why because the US is a failed society.
If it's the second case then you are right in the sense that school in the US is mostly useless outside of universities (where the only students who are thriving are international ones).
But the US is not the world, so saying that "school is useless" just based on your anecdotal experience is wrong and just the opinion of a salty retard, having a meltdown on /simg/.
>not real life knowledge and skills
And like I said at first, your parents should've taught you those. Go complain with them. School doesn't need to teach you how to change a lightbulb.
>So case closed, you're a seething teacher, bitter about being nothing more than just barely necessary.
I still don't understand why you think I'm a teacher, nor why you are so obsessed with them.
To conclude, you're free to keep seething at me, at schools, at teachers, at female F-35 pilots or whoever you want.
After almost 100 posts of running away you still weren't able to prop up a single sentence that supported your argument beside "huuuuuh my feelings were hurt!"
You won't get another (you) from me and I graciously accept your defeat. feel free to reply with yet another reddit tier quip to hide your shame, you deserve to get the last reply after all the crying you did

Before the Shoreham crash there was this one and my dad was actually there as a child when it happened.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1952_Farnborough_Airshow_crash
>In less than a second, the aircraft disintegrated: the outer sections of the wing, both engines and the cockpit separated from the airframe. The cockpit, with the two crew members still inside, fell right in front of the spectators nearest the runway, injuring several people. The engines travelled much further on a ballistic trajectory; one engine crashed harmlessly, but the second one ploughed into the so-called Observation Hill, causing most of the fatalities. The rest of the airframe fluttered down and crashed on the opposite side of the runway

Now that you have defeated dumb American F-35 poopdickschizo, it's time to burst your bubble, like life usually does for you, teacher-kun. I'm neither of these things.

You think I can't sniff your samefagging teacher ass however I like?

I have never in my life met a teacher who wasn't purple on the lips from the hypoxia of living on Mount Stupid their entire life.

My three favorites were the literature/german teacher who was a 100% certain Chaplin spoke perfect German in the dictator, the "biology" "teacher" who told us animals don't have souls, because god only gave humans souls (ahem, biology), and the physics/chemistry teacher who grades us on whether we can recite definitions verbatim (and I mean absolutely verbatim, like you're reciting a poem), but was shocked that we didn't understand what any of these actually meant.

Teachers are literally the dumbest motherfuckers alive, if it weren't the case, they would be doing anything else but teaching.

>>535183243
I don't know which one you are but you definitely sound like a schizo, what do you think of x plane?

Also it's interesting how teachers are the only labor class that have nationwide unions in pretty much every country, yet broke as fuck in almost every country.

Trucker, taxi, construction etc. unions will shut down the entire country over a 10% pay cut (or even an annual raise that's not big enough), meanwhile the apparent high-IQ megabrain intellectual scholar teachers are incapable of earning a living wage anywhere. Curious.

>>535182205
I just remembered back in history class. We were told Mussolini won with demagogue promises, that was the keyword, "demagoguepromises", "demagoguepromises", like a trained dog, if the teacher said Mussolini, you replied with "demagoguepromises". Except most of us either didn't know what the word demagogue even meant, or if they knew, why exactly it was a bad thing that a totalitarian gangster won by bullshitting through an election campaign.

And school teacher are the first to gasp in shock, that students will rather believe le ebil disinformation websites than them, the minimal-wage government worker.

I've become a bit autistic about these ROV streams, I've had the Nautilus one up all day, it's been running for 12 hours. They're really interesting to watch.

>Nookop dev stream
Holy shit the Vortex was HUGELY buffed. It'll sustain 7.5g now where it would struggle to hold 5g before

Drag and lift coefficients have been altered. The old lift curve had AoA peak at 30 degrees (for fighters at least) and then go down from there, while this new curve has an initial dip followed by a second peak, due to vortex lift. Is this accurate? Vaguely heard of LERX doing something like this on the Hornet/MiG-29 but

>>535234431
I feel like 95% or more of all the ROV usage worldwide is for oil, and oil companies are very secretive about their setups and won't share what they see. Every now and then some footage appears though, particulary when it's a scary animal

Does that wing shape make any sense?

What was that comfy looking indie flight sim that focused on civilian jobs? Not Deadstick, the other one

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>>535357841
Are they ever gonna make more maps for it? I like the map as it is, but it would be nice to have something with less twisties and more straightaways. I want to send a million tons of American Steel barreling through the desert at night.

Time to rush through learning everything about flying this thing before I lose access forever soon!

I first saw a Harrier in a 007 game and I thought it was fictional because a hovering fighter jet was just so cool

Continuing the Colorado River journey and decided to take a little side stop before Vegas.

Is this some sort of buckbreaking simulator?

Any sci-fi game that has us living in space implies that all bucks were broken beforehand.

i have tried it, it's actually nice

>>535418712
I agree. Have you used it recently? Last time I had it installed the flight computer wasn't fully fleshed out, but apparently it would be in future updates.

>>535416329
>>535418225
I forgot to add that even if it would be kinda neat, I still see no fucking reason for a transport module in current DCS. And I have zero hope of DCS ever actually moving foward from being a deserted sandbox.
>>535418938
No, It's been quite a while. I remember that it used to crash my msfs2020 randomly tho.

Kek yeah I don't even play dcs and it makes no sense. Unless they went nuts and made some loitering gun truck version like an ac-130 or some shit

>>535419368
I think the ac-130 would make sense but beyond that people are going to pay £70 for a plane that will just be takeoff, paradrop, land, repeat.

>>535419368
that would require them to improve their ground units, currently DCS ground asset logic is less advanced than 90s sims

It's kinda funny how you can immediately spot if a livery maker is also a plastic model builder lmao

Crikey I see what you mean, you can barely see them irl

>>535420374
Sometimes you can see IRL jets with those lines, but they are rare and usually old as fuck and from countries known to be a bit lax with their planned maintenances. which sent me down a rabbit hole about some issues the greeks claimed with the M-346 that was instead due to them not following procedures

>>535420682
Holy sovl, how is that thing flying?

>>535420858
Sheer stubborness and good olive oil

>Plane lands in cornfield after hitting turbulence

>>535421316
Can't really blame him. If I was in his situation I'd rather do the same.

>>535421403
You'd probably end up landing bloody anywhere with that, getting blown by the wind and crashing into trees most likely.

Anyone here seen animals in 2024? I was just flying around bazingaland and saw nothing.

I'm not sure if they're randomly placed or in certain spots. I've no idea how the Jurassic Park addon will work, if they roam around and can attack you then it'll be amazing.

>>535424693
I heard the greeks claimed they already had 2 FOD damage (very minor thankfully). When asking someone in the known they told me they didn't do all the proper maintenance for both their runways at LGKL and the M-346 tried to blame improper communication and manuals, but the manuals are the same for every member of the M-346 JUG. I then started following a bunch of greek M-346 pilots on social media and from the stories they posted I often saw stuff like doing engine tests inside the hangars (should be done in a specific clean area of the base), cold and dark but without mass cable installed or like vid rel, where they do engines inspections without the proper and required soft and anti debris suits. Doing an engine inspection dressed like this is just asking for trouble.

>>535424693
pic rel is how it's supposed to be done.

>>535419240
Man I really got to try flying this thing. It’s been sitting in my hangar since launch and every time I see an update it’s been massive

>>535418690
Hell yeah

I doubt clothes and boots can really damage an engine

>>535420682
>ahegao face with mascara tears streak running down face
hot

>>535435323
Its about losing a little piece of something thats will get sucked through, not directly damaging the engines with the clothes.

>>535435323
like the other anon already told you. plus look at him, boots that could have small rocks in the sole threads, sharp metallic zippers and other random stuff. One of those gets in the engine and it could cause catastrophic damage at the next take off or down the line. It's pure idiocy.

I love K&N filters, when they get dirty you just flip them over and reinstall, and you're good for another 100k miles!

>>535484390
Is this in multiplayer? Otherwise how do you get the AI to launch simultaneously? Imo the game also needs tools to have AI form up with you and coordinate. Stuff like saturation attacks are simply not possible intentionally, your only hope is to look out for an ally attacking your target and using that as cover.

>>535483414
No big loss if true, DCS does that better anyways. MSFS is for gliders and pretending that you're not a broke retard who sold his massive Chainlink stack at 35 cents and also slept on Bitcoin despite knowing about it a few weeks after it was created.

thread saved by my good graces

Coming soon to an overly serious server near you!

NO update fucking when.
I wish the Ifrit looked more like this, not gonna lie.
Also i want a Mig-25/31 equivalent and bigger maps.

For WW1 plane flying should I go with WOFF, Rise of Flight or wait for a sale on IL2 + Flying Circus?

Can't help you, i haven't flown ww1 stuff since forever.

Dang. Okay then.

I'm actually pleasantly surprised X-Plane performs way better on gentoo than on debian for me. Something was wrong with my debian install, I don't know what.

>>535593170
Welp, otherwise nice flight but my approach was skewed horizontally and I don't know why. I guess I should read the Baron 58 manual again, maybe it requires setting the HSI course properly even when using GPS nav? I have no idea.

>>535596335
This is what happens when you only fly randomly and take random 2 month breaks. You forget stuff, or at least I do.

>>535596561
And by this I mean the autopilot couldn't follow the course properly during initial approach, for some reason. I found myself way too far to the right, even though the approach should be straight from IAF to FAF to RW according to chart.

>>535591287
>fair

There's your problem.

>>535596789
>>535593170
Maybe it's just the airport? I've noticed that when I do an ILS approach some airports are wrong and will have me land a good 50m to the right or left of the actual runway.

How? Didn't they disband due to bankrupcy?

>>535599584
I've never even heard of this plane before, and now some future-Razbam wants to release it right around the time people will be trying to figure out where the C-130 fits into DCS, after outright failing to figure out how the CH-47 fits in for over a year.

>>535599584
Why is this slop? I thought you'd be over the moon at a C-27 addon

I can't find anything on this C-27J

>>535601603
>CH-47
did people really buy it?

>>535602468
The only info I was able to find was on instagram from 2 accounts with no website and they never answered to my questions.
It's either an internal project where they'll just make an external 3d model for their shows or hopefully a community module.
>>535601686
nta but It would be neat to recreate the RSV demo team manouvres, but I just think it's useless in DCS, especially if it would be a paid module. With trainers you can learn the basics etc, but with the C-27J or the C-130 what do you do? DCS doesn't even have a functional ATC.

>>535601548
>Maybe it's just the airport?
Maybe, I'll do another flight now and see what went wrong or if it was just the approach/airport.

>>535601548
it's rievocazione storica virtuale, just taking the piss since it will suffer the same fate as if it was built by veao (you'll never fly it)

>>535606768
Ah, yeah. It's the most likely scenario.

>>535605025
Very cool screenshot.

No problems this time, but I did set the HSI bearing to match the FAF heading, no idea if that has some effect in GPS approaches. Oh and the wind was blowing from the left this time...

>>535612129
