Ms2024 - can't get rid of static traffic

Hi

I am struggling to remove static a/c in 2024. I only ever fly on VATSIM, & these area an unwanted nuisance. There’s even a GLIDER with a Push Back Tug at YSSY Sydney!!! REALLY?

Can anyone offer advice?

Regards David

SOLVED (thanks)

REALLY? That’s mad!!

Yes you can… Set “traffic airport quality” to “off” in global rendering quality in the “graphics” submenu.

Yeah, hopefully it gets turned back into a slider instead of “all or nothing”. I don’t mind a few statics, particularly at GA airports.

Hi.

Many thanks for this. I have nothing enabled & can’t see Disable Thermals!! Thanks anyway. Regards

Totally agree!

Wow! That worked. Thank you so much.

My beef is that I know what I’m doing (to some degree) But what about those poor newbies.

2024 gets an Oscar for making something sooooo complicated!!!

Regards

I’m afraid that this might be the only way to completely disable traffic and static aircraft. Unfortunately it seems that Asobo overlooked something and I hope they will address this by adding separate options that we can disable individually.

Yes the problem is that you also have the airport detail on off (also the vehicles) - I already asked for an option in the wishlist to simply deactivate the parked aircraft - if the wishlist is online, please vote !!!

Then there are still the generic static traffics there like MSFS2020 (asobo-aircraft-generic-airliner-twinengines, asobo-aircraft-generic-airliner-quadengines…)
