What did you do in MSFS today? (Part 1)

I did a flight from Las Vegas North to KGCN as a tourist. Gorgeous as can be expected. Pilot put big me in the right seat, everyone else had side windows. It was as if my explorer had wings and we could feel all the thermals. We flew through a thunderstorm on the way back. He handled that plane well. Cheers.

Yes, those thermals make the172 move like a Dolphin. I don’t believe there is anything in the world that comes close to that view. I flew KPGA - KGCN - 1G4. Tomorrow I hope to go over the Painted Desert, see what they did with that. Visited that also many years ago.

Just finished my around the world trip in the Caravan and already starting planning another one. I’m afraid that this planet will soon start to feel small to me.

Spent my flight time today fault finding, bug hunting and performance tuning.

Managed to verify a repeatable location that crushes frame rate to a spectacular 2fps on an rtx3090 (76t near Dallas) and that turning all data services off is worth about 40fps.

had some kind of bug yesterday, so had a reasonably relaxing flight from Nagasaki to Nagoya.

Went off-roading in the VL-3.

I delivered a bunch of COVID-19 vaccines through the night and not-so-calm weather conditions in the Illinois area. A true hero the world needs. :wink:

Tried to get the King Air to slow down enough to land then standing on the brakes while taxiing so that the ■■■■ thing didn’t take off again. Love the plane but the power needs to be tweaked a tad.

Not all heroes wear capes but I notice you still took money for the gig? :rofl:

Of course! Landing fees, renting fees… Revenue barely covered costs. :smiley: But it’s the type of job where you get way more popularity and reputation. :smiley:

It’s an unnamed, unreleased game written by me. It is in a pretty advanced state (market (importing, selling goods), cargo and passengers jobs are implemented. I plan to implement regular passenger flights and package delivery/courier feature by the end of April (maybe sooner) and then run closed alpha tests. I’ll be looking for testers here on the forum shortly. :smiley:

Wow, great ! Kind of OnAir/NeoFly, right ? :slight_smile: If you’re looking for alpha testers, count me in !

Yes, I love the King Air but its engine logic is totally whack :upside_down_face:

Yes, but a little bit more advanced, with more detail. It’s more an online game than single player. Players moves will influence the economy. Basically, if player A has a regular connection from EDDM to EPKT, then links from EPKT to other places will have more passengers from Germany. There will be supply and demand in a few areas (like aircraft prices, market (goods) prices) etc. etc. There is too much to tell, and we already did a vast OT. :stuck_out_tongue: PS. If you fly carelessly, you can hurt passengers, and they won’t be happy. :stuck_out_tongue: :smiley:

What did you do in MFS today? Well…nothing. Because nothing can be done due to low FPS issues. Maybe in 6 months some miracles will happen. Maybe. One can only hope.

I believe that would be a glimpse of the new MS/Xbox version of MSFS 2020

Complete flight… whahoo! Now to do one with fewer mistakes. Thanks to Filbert for making it possible. Cheers, mate! Also noticed in someone else’s Youtube vid some controller adjustments from the settings. My flap controller needs some help.
