Really look forward to this patch. Thanks for the work on it and making it happen. Most importantly , finally some proper winds.

The reports on wind in most of the world don’t actually match what you will experience which will basically be a non-existent wind component. MOST people around the world have been flying with a 3knot wind from 225 (which is like the CALM setting). So in other words most people around the world (excluding parts of Europe) have NOT experienced real winds until hopefully after this patch. The other side of this is also the reports from ATIS/World Map don’t even match not to mention the actual local (LIVE) weather most of the time either. Having actual crosswinds, tailwinds & headwinds in LIVE weather have been mostly non-existent unless you were flying in parts of Europe or setting your own weather parameters. It will be nice to finally actually plan a flight and have it match the numbers or be very close hopefully.

lol… sure you are not an xplane user… we have recently done a 6 months testing for Vulkan on XP11 man… software works like that.

Hi! I’m really happy with FS2020, but I would like to se some improvements!
At weight and fuel, I would like to see a way to change units between KG/LBS/GAL.
Baro units could have a way to set a default unit, because the standard is always IN HG
The A320 / B747-8i / B787 FMS/FMGS are very weak and I would like to change things like a complete PERF functions, where I could insert by my self V1, VR, V2, weight, CG, etc…
Independent FMS, because actually both FMS (left/right) shows the same option.
Independent PFD / ND actually, Capt and F/O shows the same option terrain on/off and range.

Kinda agree here. It would be helpful is the mods would consolidate like threads into a more generic thread with details inside maybe?

How about printing of the flight log, deleting of flights not completed (not because of crash) time constraints and inadequate training on navigations systems is the reason. Not trying to bugger the log, but should not be penalized for not completing flight because it’s my fault on time and training. Some downloading issues still experienced by several folks. Something to do with download/content manager. File size causes reset and it gets into a loop or something. Please see posts on this subject.

I hope will be able to save and load any profiles I create.

Great news! Now when you start work on patch 3 can you include triple monitor support equivalent to the ā€œviewgroupsā€ facility in P3D :grinning:

Sure hope Force Feedback capability is disguised in there someplace.

Hopefully I get my new Airbus Joystick for when it comes out then perhaps I shall be able to try it out properly.

Super nice update, now we’re getting there.

In fact it can be done via developer menu but every time I try this approach, I end up with CTD.
Perhaps they’re not resetting the flight parameters during the reload…

go fly around in XPlane there pal.

Good! Thank you, Asobo, for collecting feedback from the community – the key to success.
Any news about the DVD1 requirement for poor creatures as me who is being punished for having the expensive DVD version?

With the world updates and weather/wind sorted out, I hope planes get even more attention in the future in regard to G1000 updates and functions, performance, fuel consumption and engine workings, to bring them closer to real-life performance. Especially the premium aircraft which are not accessible to modding community.

In the list I do not see that it will correct the installation problem! People who still have problems because of their loop failures! 1.61 fspackage 002! We cannot install the game, what should we wait until November when they make another update?
