PMS50 GTN750 Project

I would be very welcoming towards a lifetime subscription.

Thanks
The black bar is normal and will never change. The GTN has a given aspect ratio that must be preserved. The black bar is also used by some Mods to display an extended engine page menu.
The washed aspect is a Carenado issue. Ask them.

Iā€™m not at home to test this but does the GTN pop out, with the intent of dropping it on to a Realsim Gear 750 panel? For when Asobo sort out the performance degradation issues.

RealSimGear should work here.

I did, but it didnā€™t change anything for me. Still very washed out.

A Carenado issue. Ask them.

Do you still recommend disabling airspace messaging, even after the Carenado updates?

And thanks again for all your hard work and hand-holding.

Just disable airspace messaging until Asobo fix the issue with airspaces.

Thanks again. Hope the update doesnā€™t keep you up nights (or me).

The GTN version is ready for the next update. Asobo works now with a set of beta testers so we can test the update before it is released. A very nice thing.

Yup. I filed a Zendesk.

If weā€™re in the Sim Update 4 beta, do we still need to do this?

Ah sorry, my mistake.
This bug will not not be fixed in the sim update 4. So disable airspace messages until Asobo fix it.

Strawman. I didnā€™t say anything about ā€œhating all subscriptionsā€. I have a navigraph subscription. Jepp charts are updated every 28 days. A subscription makes sense. I have a GTN 750 in my (real) airplane. I have a chart subscription and an updates subscription for that. Again, it makes sense. I have a ForeFlight subscription with a Jepp chart subscription because I donā€™t want to go hunting for information about the alternate minimums in the clouds when the approach lights are out. Makes sense. My life could depend on it.

Letā€™s say the subscription to this is $5 a month. Reasonable, no? Well what if I have it for even just 3 years? Thatā€™s $180. Am I going to pay $180 for the GTN in MSFS? Ask yourself what the only reasonable answer to that question is.

The subscription will be year based and largely less than 5$/month.
Anyway, you will have the choice between subscription and lifetime.

172 and Grand Caravan are the 2 I was using with GTN and on which I noticed the huge fps drop with the mod.
Interesting to know it is FPS optimized and itā€™s very good.

Iā€™ll try installing it back again and slowing down page update settingā€¦

Thanks

I really donā€™t see what could do that.
Somebody else have this issue?

After todayā€™s update Iā€™ve tried to switch to GTN750 on Carenadoā€™s piper, but the map seems to freeze. Fearing thereā€™s a conflict Iā€™ve emptied the community folder leaving only gtn750 mod but it didnā€™t solve the problem. Iā€™m a sim update 4 beta tester btw.

My mistake, itā€™s arrow iii. And I thought the problem he mentioned is already solved by todayā€™s update.

So for arrow iii and seneca, you can only switch to gtn750 after the plane leaves the ground, is that correct?

If you are a beta tester of the sim update 4, this is fixed in v 1.16.2.0
If you are not using the beta sim4 you can switch when you want but read that:

Looks like light refracting from the glass surface of the GTN panel. Perhaps JF is not modeling the glass on their Arrow?
