How do you get the red written datas in the left upper corner?
Thank you for PC “XBox” app fix. It worked for me.
All - 1st fellow with Logitech 3d pro issue. Try shutting off PC, plug in JS, and then restart PC. If that dont do it (should not plug things in while ports are hot), delete all USB entries in Device manager, restart PC, it will clear out any ports hosed up and only load good ones. See if that don’t help. Regardless of spec on USB, never plug in things while system is on, not good for device, and not good for contacts in the port, although voltages are 5VDC, still think a little sparking occurs, which errodes plating on port contacts. Just plug in with system off. After doing above, if still not working, keep plugged in, remove software from logitech, restart system, reinstall logitech software. I used to use this exact JS, and it work fine until it got sloppy when in center spot. Virpil FSX JS is new and is great.
2nd: I changed render scalling to 200, seems to have cleard up the displays on the 747 but, HAVE NOT flown test flight to be sure. Interesting thread, there is a “new” (WU6) feature slider or something you can play with, cannot remember what it is, nor how to find it. Any help would be appreciated.
Auto Throttle - mostly 747/787 - have not tried it anyplace else. It is a system I find somewhat troublesome. In above planes, not only AP but the FMC also controls it, and during approach, it makes plane go faster than I like, so I usually turn it off 10 or so miles out, to get plane configured as good as possible, regardless at least 50% of the time, I crash the plane because something else is not working right. I am going to get this woking, and have successful flights or all hair will be gone. In FSX routinely flew 747/737 and C-17 around world, no issues. Something is rotten in denmark about this.
It’s a mod called Shift+Z Stats.

The Draw distance is way of today. New bug with bing maps? And i got ctd after 5 minutes.
At first: I waited over a year for MSFS 2020 release, bought a Xobx Series X only for this game and play MSFS now at least 4-5 days a week … big respect for all the developers, IT-experts and additional team-members at Microsoft, Asobo, XBOX, Bing etc. to establish such an impressive FlightSim / Game for a reasonable price… I am a no-pilot with zero-flight-sim-experience, happy to „fly“ in small and slow GA-planes with no crashing, looping, following the basics rules „how to handle a plane“ and enjoy during a clear and sunny sky landscapes or cities … i think someone called this kind of use of the MSFS (maybe with some kind of contempt after many years of complex ATC-IFR-747-intercontinental-bad weather and no view flights on a high-end-PC) „Google Earth with a joystick“, but it suits me and I think many others.
So i am far away from the high level of criticism of many users in this forum and I see more what I have and less what is missing … even sometimes I am astonished how many bugs are even inside the centrally managed and closed ecosystem of the XBOX (for example: There is still no saving of the settings for the HOTAS Joystick …!?).
Additional to all the probably justified claims about bug-fixes for „Real-ATC-IFR-747etc-Flight-Simmers“ I would like to suggest from the „Google Earth with a joystick“-corner: Can we have much more photogrammetry … and less hand-made POI-objects between low-realistic-AI/KI-generated buildings, please?
In general I am quite impressed how realistic it feels to fly with MSFS over photogrammetry-cities, like San Francisco, Chicago, Rome, Munich, Frankfurt … after you know, how it feels and what is possible, it is almost „no-fun“ to fly over an AI/KI-generated city …
I expected high improvements of photogrammetry and landscapes with WU6 and often I see the progress … but often I am disappointed … for example: Lübeck got a POI with the „Holstentor“ (very good made by the artist) but the city is KI-generated-low-realistic and some main buildings are even missing … Hamburg as a „photogrammetry-city“ has only the inner circle with photogrammetry, only 5 tube stations from city hall (Eppendorf-Winterhude) = KI-generated … Bern looks much better than before, but still KI-generated-low-realistic and the river Aare has a strange river course … Innsbruck (very close to the popular LOWI-Aiport) is still KI-generated after WU6 ?! … many more examples like Lucerne, Ulm … and by the way: London without Camden Market…
Normally I would assume, that there are no photogrammetry-datas available MSFS could use, but if you check GoogleEarth you see very realistic impressions of these areas … even the buildings on top of the mountain Pilatus close to Lucerne. I know Microsoft (BingMaps) and Google are competitors and not best-friends and I do not know if you could use the database in both IT-systems … but is it possible to get a payable add-on (maybe via third party marketplace) to get more and better photogrammetry? … I know, some may say „use GoogleEarth and not MSFS for sightseeing“, but GoogleEarth is much more static (always the same time/weather and much less fly-over-illusion like with MSFS).
Also, I ask myself, without photogrammetry-addon … will we have to wait for the next “Austria, Germany and Switzerland” WorldUpdate in some years or will there be photogrammetry-improvements from time to time ?
I never said that you need the Xbox app to run the Sim , i only told you that i had to installatie the Xbox app to get the update since SU3. Never Said anything else.
You may not have had the Companion app in that case. Back then it probably worked for either. Now the Companion app won’t work.
Weird. I fly in/out of Aspen all the time. I have not seen this awesome exploded view in the sky. Haha.
strange, i had to install xbox up only for wu6, how they do so different thing
Is it just me, or is each WU getting less and less attention to detail? Seems that way with all the photos I have seen of the last 2 WUs. Maybe I am just being a cynical old man? ![]()
After the big update, the game will be newly installed to solve all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous problems
‘After the big update, the game will be newly installed to solve all kinds of difficult and miscellaneous problems’
After all my issues that surfaced after WU6, a fresh install of MSFS fixed the lot of them. So I fully agree with the above. But after the ‘big update’…not sure what you mean by that. Do you mean WU6 or something more to come?
Well after a couple of weeks of flying my dreaded CTDs are back. 7 attempts to do a flight, 7 CTDs. Of course, the event viewer tells you nothing, it is always CTD with the same error. Nothing has changed on my end, so I will give it a rest for today and see how it is tomorrow. ![]()
Was it the same flight on all seven occasions, if so what was it? It could be a locational thing.
If conditions permit, it is recommended to install a new game every time the world is updated
Where did you read that? I have never done this.
Me neither.
Sim is working fine since the last update without having to reinstall.
xbox user:
photogrammetry wrecked in germany etc
I mean, if there are inexplicable problems after the game update, it is recommended to install the game completely. If there are no problems, you can ignore this suggestion.
