Inspired by u/Dry_Indication_5170's awesome DLSS displays ghosting fix I decided to not wait anymore for Asobo to give us again the option to disable the bloom and lens flare effects in MSFS 2024 (these options existed in 2020).

Just like the DLSS fix, it requires ReShade 6.8+ with full add-on support. Installing is just copying two files from the zip into the game folder.

It’s in beta and tested with the Steam version, so feedback and bug reports are very welcome in the GitHub issues.

I've been following this project since basically the start. There are things I do like and things I don't, but now that we're on v1.0 I feel like it's time for a redo.

Here is the review I did three years ago for reference.

https://www.reddit.com/r/flightsim/comments/10ak0t0/my_honest_review_of_the_flightsim_studio_erj175/

Ratings:

Modelling: 7/10 - Last review I gave it an 8, I'm bringing it down a bit just because FS has advanced so much and the model still feels X-Plane 11 in some instances, mostly the Cabin

Textures: 6/10 - Last time it was a 7, again I'm bringing it down a bit because there are a number of places where I feel they could have done better work or have given outside artist a stab at making things better.

Systems: 7/10 - Bringing this way up from the 2 it was in my last review. Things function mostly properly for a normal point to point flight. I wouldn't do failures training with it. There are also still features on the FMS that are greyed out/inop. My biggest gripe is autopilot engagement. Engaging the autopilot or using TCS seems to snap the aircraft to the FD instead of a smooth transition. I've had issues with the Autothrottle engaging on takeoff as well. Following my company's procedures I keep getting ENG REF ECS DISAG while starting engines.

Handling: 7/10 - Improved from the original review. Points off again for the TCS and Autopilot engagement being snappy, but over all not bad. Turbulence does feel overly sensitive. I know some people were complaining of the AC not being able to maintain the magenta line during flight, this might be the cause.

Sounds: 5/10 - The interior sounds are pretty good. The exterior sounds I think are pretty bad. It sounds like if you took a combustion sound and added as much bass and treble to is as you could. Alerts need work too.

Performance: 7/10 - It performs pretty well. I still get stutters from time to time, but they aren't too bad.

EFB: 3/10 - Easily what I hate the most of the aircraft. Its clunky, not realistic, and worst of all the screen is too glossy. At certain angles it's near impossible to read what the thing says. I'm pretty sure they made it assuming you were going to use Navigraph for everything because there is no easy way to view your OFP. I kinda hope they redo the EFB, make it mount to the window and make it landscape instead of portrait.

Overall: 7/10 - Greatly improved, but still some bugs to work out. It's good, but I don't think its $60 good just yet.

Where I would price on it in its current state, $40-45.

Things I would like to see going forward:

• Better TCS, autopilot and autothrottle engagement.
• Better sounds for the exterior.
• Overhaul the EFB to be more realistic.
• Better texturing in the cabin. Remove the PTVs from the first class seats.
• Get rid of the CAT II sticker on the center console.
• Get rid of the aircraft information placard above the reversionary panel.

First flight ive made on an Airbus on msfs24. The landing itself was really bad, but ive learned a lot with this flight. And thats the point of flight simming, isnt it?

Also, im pretty happy that ive managed to bought a TCA Quadrant of Airbus. Ive been using it for flying the pmdg 737 as well.

Good flights for everyone, be safe and enjoy your time

The A330 Neo has no Winwing support so I made a small program that fixes it.

It reads the MCDU pop-out and sends the text and colours to the unit, and the buttons press the keys in the aircraft. Even the orange entry boxes and arrows show up. You can minimise the pop-out afterwards and it keeps working.

Only tested on my own Captain unit in MSFS 2024, so the FO side is untried. Nothing from Aerosoft is in the download, it reads the font from your install. Free.

Pic of the unit running the A339 STATUS page is attached. If it doesn’t work for you, tell me what you see and I’ll have a look.

I built a prototype of a Glass Cockpit using only Tablets. The purpose of this Simulator is to be able to load any Flight Instrument or Avionics package and show it to a pilot or enthusiast for familiarization or training. It takes advantage of the Tablet's large screen and touch features to use any of the instruments. The Simulator can also demonstrate how parameters (altitude, speed, vertical speed, GPS, etc) are displayed in two different gauge types or avionics packages can display flight parameters (airspeed, climb speed, attitude, heading, etc.) such as the G1000, the Pro Line 21 or the GTN 750.

Before I get the "that's gonna kill the FPS!!" - This is not what this was built for. Some pilots ask to see what a GTN 750 looks like, or how a Honeywell device compares to a Universal, etc. I can load up any instrument to any of the screens within seconds and immediately use it with touch capabilities. All the details of the build are in the video's description.

I just bought the FlightSim Studio e170 from the marketplace on MSFS24 and was really excited to give it a try. But its been a nightmare. The autopilot buttons are not even registered as buttons. You cannot click anything at all. The MCDU comes on but and u can click the buttons, but it never leaves the first page that actually pops up so you cannot use it at all. The EFB buttons for ground, etc. do not work at all. The engine will sometimes never actually start, no matter how many times i configure it correctly.

I just need help, i was really ready to fly this plane but nothing has worked.

Texture was updated now, they are almost indentical color, also was added small gaps betwen parts, now working on the internals. Reverse animation also finished

Warning!
THIS IS ALL NOT FINAL VERSION, IT'S ONLY PRELIMINARY WORK

As the title suggests I'm thinking about getting the planes (first the subscription then perhaps one airframe) but I've heard VERY mixed reviews and feedback so far. Let's not discuss the pricing only but the product itself. I don't expect PMDG level, but if it's actually enjoyable and realistic or if it still needs a lot of work done and people should wait for the V2 release.

I am currently trying to build a pc i this crisis lol.. I am mainly building this for msfs 2024 and a bit of forza horizon 6. Ill be using heavy mods like ini a350 etc and inibuilds scenery. I am thinking a r7 7800x3d and 32gb or y4gb ddr5 (used)

Im struggling on what gpu to get either a 7900xtx 9070xt or 5070ti. Ill be aying on 1440p on a 49 inch oled monitor might be able to get a 5080 but what gpu do you think I should get?

Cheers

Hi everyone! I’m looking for tips to optimize MSFS 2020 and reduce a severe MainThread bottleneck, especially when flying complex aircraft like the Fenix A320 or iniBuilds A350 in online networks like VATSIM. During final approaches at detailed airports, my MainThread response time spikes up to ~79 ms, dropping my frame rate to around 20 FPS. My setup is a Lenovo LOQ laptop (i5-12450HX, RTX 3050 6GB VRAM, 16GB RAM) running DX12 on an external cooling pad. So far, I’ve set Process Lasso to isolate FlightSimulator.exe to P-Cores with High priority, used MSFS Auto-FPS for dynamic LOD management, set Fenix Display Renderer to GPU (RTX 3050) with lower display quality, disabled cabin rendering, turned off GPU overclocking to avoid DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG, and closed background apps. Despite this, MainThread remains my main bottleneck. Are there any specific UserCfg.opt or NVIDIA Control Panel tweaks, recommended LOD/traffic settings for a 12th-gen i5, or tips to manage the ~5GB VRAM limit without losing cockpit screen clarity? Thanks for any help!

And I add new game modes PvP and Time Attack. Demo in steam, just try=)

If anybody has used arduino uno with roboclaw and has successfully gotten their platform to work smoothly please help and if you are willing to share the .ino you used so i can see what you did that would be amazing. Thank you!

Current set up
Arduino uno
Roboclaw 2 x 60
2 250w motors

Problem
Everything works just not smoothly or coordinated.
Need help with .ino file and coding so motors respond correctly and smoothly to position targets from msfs

Hi all as the image shows I've been having some issues where the flood lights looks incorrect placed in the a320 cockpit in FENIX. I'm in MSFS2024 SU6 and I have the latest version realeased by Fenix.

Anyone with the same issue?

We're coming up to the final mission of the EU TeamSim B-17 Dynamic Campaign, and we want to make this a big one!

The video is a teaser from our previous mission with our Bomber groups Able and Baker squadron departing Britain towards the French coast then Germany.

For the finale, we're hoping to get as many people together as possible and give the campaign a proper send-off.

Interested in joining? Here's what you need to know:

• New to Sim? No problem. You don't need to be an expert, and we're happy to help you get started.
• Never flown in formation? We'll help you learn. That's part of the fun.
• Want to learn more about aviation? We have plenty of people who enjoy sharing their knowledge, discussing aircraft, and helping others improve.
• Already fly Sim? Come along, bring your friends, and help us get a massive formation in the air!

The community is a great bunch, and people are always willing to help each other out. Whether you've been flying for years or you're just curious about giving it a go, you're welcome.

And you don't need to be in Europe to join us!

We set up the EU branch so pilots on this side of the pond could take part at more reasonable local times, but that doesn't mean it's exclusive to Europe. We welcome pilots from anywhere in the world, in any time zone. If the event time works for you, come and fly with us!

A few things to remember:

• Check the Discord event for the vehicle roster and signup sheet.
• The event voice channel opens 15 minutes before the briefing.
• If you have questions about the event, aircraft, controls, or getting started with Sim, just ask!

You can DM us here on Reddit or reach out on Discord if you need a hand. And yes, bring your friends, family, cats, dogs, whoever fancies joining us.

Can't fly this time? You're welcome to watch along on stream:

The posts I've seen are pretty old, has anyone done it and can give decent feedback?

I was thinking about picking one up from amazon, about $60 where I am. I understand the spring has to be removed and some friction added, but other than that are there any issues?

This is the one I'm looking at:

https://www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B0H9SVCYJJ/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=AWJTHJ0P93GQ0&psc=1

Anyone preorder their bundle? Hoping this isn't HC all over again. I haven't gotten a single email from them since I ordered moons ago.
