All jokes aside, I don't have DLSS5 but I wonder what results you guys are getting! Post your screens below if you're using DLSS5 or if you've got some graphics you think are damn good :)

Flight Simulator 2024 Current state of MSFS2024 and XP12 gaining traction

14 Upvotes

There's something I've been observing over the last couple of months and just wanna know what you guys are thinking about that.

With the releases of SU5 up to SU7.1 now I'm seeing people getting more and more frustrated about where MSFS2024 is currently heading.

latest SUs all felt kinda half-baked with lots of small bug fixes but nothing meaningful, long standing bugs and requested features are yet untouched and SUs overall feel kind of lacking a real target.

also it seems like it's now a standard to push .1 releases after a AU to fix game breaking bugs that have been introduced with the actual SU releases that haven't been identified or remained unactioned during beta cycles although beeing reported in the forums.

Also communication from Asobo reduced to basically almost zero and people more and more get the feeling they don't really care about what the community actually wants and needs.

On the other hand XPlane is gaining more and more traction, the latest betas significantly improved performance and overall experience of the sim, bringing a very detailed weather depiction and radar etc., people generally have very positive attitude towards Laminar Research for listening to the community and bringing meaningful updates to the sim over the last couple of updates.

Then the latest news of IniBuilds returning to XP12 after having abandoned their products for MSFS got me thinking quite a bit.

I myself made the switch from MSFS2024 back to XP12 when SU5 released due to for me unacceptable performance issues and I can't be happier right now because of what I already stated above.

What's your opinion on this topic? Is it just me seeing this recent shift due to my own experience?

Question Anyone do custom skins?

Hey all,

I lead a project to restore a Red Tail P-51 in honor of a local MIA Tuskegee Airman. Our Mustang is named 'Lucy Gal,' I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a creating a custom skin for MSFS, X-Plane, DCS, IL-2, etc. as a way to help us promote our project. We are a 501c3 called the Keep Them Flying Foundation (lucygal.com)

Any interest of leads would be helpful and appreciated, thanks!

Rant A slight rant regarding cabins

65 Upvotes

I saw the recently uploaded video by BlueBird simulations and they talked about how they don't have a modelled lavatory and got a basic cabin, and this made me happy and think about the whole in general.

I absolutely hate it when addons keep boasting about cabins and their functionality, it feels like a waste of time and resources to me, why should I care that the bathroom flush works or that the overhead bin opens up or whatever? how much time do you actually spend in the cabin using all of this stuff or just looking at it?

Sure some offer the option of removing the cabin for performance which I like, but I still do think time and resources which could've been possibly be re-allocated towards the plane itself are being used in useless things like the cabin, and I feel like it's somewhat of an excuse to keep prices high.

Only functionality I see in this is for GSX Seated passengers (and in which they never use the lavatory they just sit there) or for when a youtuber is making a dramatic video about an aviation disaster and keeps recording from the cabin.

I feel like all is needed is just the windows for you to get those wing pictures and that's it. Does anyone else feel the same? I'm curious as to what others think of this, some of my friends did disagree with me on this so I want to know what others think.

Also if you are going to ask which video I was talking about, it's this one.

Flight Simulator 2024 New G1000 apps for MSFS 2020 & 2024 available now od iPad and Android

Post image
11 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

A physical G1000 setup was far too expensive for me, so I thought: why not use a tablet - the kind many people already have at home or that their kids might own? I tried you use others apps, but they dont support most of the MSFS G1000 features, like checklists, custom engine pages, SVT, charts and MFD map panning etc so I decided to develop my own as my university degree project.

That’s how the FlightSimGeeks project was born. It’s the first product on the market where all features that works in your sim works on your tablet.
Every knob, every button, all functions work on any G1000-equipped aircraft in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 & 2024, including third-party add-ons on you tablet!

There are no hidden in-app purchases, no subscriptions, and no ads. You pay once and get lifetime access to all features! Price is 15USD + VAT if applies to your country for both PFD and MFD.

Work with PC Version of MSFS 2020 & 2024 on iPad and Android Tablets.
I spent almost 2 years on that including development, testing and tens of hours on call with Asobo about features that SimConnect dont support (app don't require WASM at all).

I released this app this week so I am very open for any feedback.

Enjoy your flight!

✈️ HEADWIND SIMULATIONS — DEVELOPMENT UPDATE

No, we're not dead! 😄

Hey everyone!

We know things have been quiet lately, but rest assured, development hasn't stopped! We've been extremely busy behind the scenes working on the A330-800neo, A330-900neo, and Sukhoi Superjet 100.

Here's a quick look at what's happening!

🛫 Airbus A330-900neo (A339)

Our current focus includes reviewing and improving exterior geometry, landing gear, animations, materials, and overall model structure. We're also evaluating opportunities to take better advantage of MSFS 2024 while maintaining our existing systems architecture.

🛫 Airbus A330-800neo (A338)

The A338 hasn't been forgotten! We're reviewing its unique geometry and configuration differences while working toward a more unified development foundation with the A339, allowing improvements to benefit both aircraft.

🇷🇺 Sukhoi Superjet 100 (SSJ100)

The Superjet has been receiving significant development attention!

Our work and research include:

• Cockpit displays and avionics integration.
• Authentic electrical, hydraulic, fuel, and flight control systems.
• Evaluating native MSFS 2024 functionality versus custom systems.
• Reworking 3D models, animation hierarchies, and Blender workflows.
• Improved PBR materials and LOD optimization.
• Planning a dedicated Superjet EFB.

Our goal is to build an authentic Superjet, not simply an Airbus wearing a Sukhoi exterior!

❤️ Looking Ahead

We're prioritizing accuracy, performance, and solid development foundations rather than rushing releases.

Some of the most important work isn't immediately visible, but it's essential for the future of these projects.

The A338, A339, and SSJ100 are very much alive!

Thank you all for your patience and continued support. We'll share more as development progresses!

— Headwind Simulations Team ✈️ @everyone
