You can do that using SPAD
An EFB app that collects all the things that can be controlled with sim connect or variables but there’s no convenient native way to control, including:
- control/call ground services
- control doors, cabin lighting, and preflight equipment (chocks, covers, etc.)
- toggle ATC assistance (essentially, delegate comms to a copilot or F/O)
- toggle headphone simulation
- toggle HUD
- toggle instrument tooltips
I know that many third-party aircraft have their own apps or tools that control some of the above, but one that applies universally, provided the aircraft use standard config from the SDK, would be priceless.
A standalone flight launcher that lets me skip all those pointless MSFS menus and nonsense buttons.
Great info! I’m an FSUIPC guy, any idea if you can do it with that?
There’s a couple of Lua trim scripts for FSUIPC7 in this thread
Very grateful, thanks!
Not sure sorry but looks like you’re in luck anyway.
I would like an app to adjust the brightness of the sunlight, ground color tones, and so on, in the MSFS world (including in VR). I feel this is a feature that should have been included in MSFS by default, but since it wasn’t, I’m looking for such an app.
Hi @Nahcep4338, maybe you want to try this one: flightsim.to/addon/116122/msfs-interactive-radio-garden
This app streams live, real-world radio into your Microsoft Flight Simulator cockpit based on your plane’s location. It works on MSFS 2020/24!
Hi @EnjonUK, check out: flightsim.to/addon/116122/msfs-interactive-radio-garden
I would like an app or add-on which simply saves all of the aircraft variables/aircraft state and the exact location/parking place so that when I launch the SIM next time it is a continuation of my previous game play i.e. the ability to carry on where you left the SIM last time.
This would improve immersion for me immensely.
On a slightly different note (not really an add on) I would also like to be able to buy Marketplace addons on my 'phone/tablet when not at my desktop SIM. Not sure why MS haven’t done this. I’m pretty sure they would sell a lot more stuff.
