r/MSFS2024

Im currently playing MSFS 2020, but I feel like something is missing from the sim. That’s why I’m thinking about switching to MSFS 2024. I’d like someone to help me over Discord with installing all the addons together and configuring the sim from scratch.
If there’s anyone Tunisian who could help me with this, that would be even better

Can't seem to activate or find any areobatic smoke generator for the Asobo L-39 albatross

Is it not included, or has someone managed to find smoke effects for this plane?

If not, I'm unsure how to add a suggestion on the msfs forums, since this plane is iconic with areobatic teams and smokes seems like a no-brainer for this plane

I know nothing about flight so my favorite thing to do is go cold and dark on commercial jets and try to fly them from YouTube videos. I tried career mode but it seems kind of tedious. And unless I’m missing something it doesn’t let you do a full “cold and dark”

How do you guys personally enjoy the game and how can I enjoy it more?

Hey everyone!

Should I buy the 9060xt 16gb or 4070 super 12gb?

5 7600x
A620 pro
32gb

Fenix scenery :)

this is paid ini A340

this is free A330

I would really love to experience a realistic loading time in the A340 just like many other addon aircrafts (Fenix or FBW for example), but it seems like I have no choice other than 'instant', I wish inibuilds also changed it in the A330 or any other aircrafts that may be this way from them, because it really doesnt give you all that immersion, its either instant, almost instant, or close to an hour long

I would really appreciate any help if someone knows how I can load the A340 a bit more realistically, not just instant

Looking for some advice from anyone who's made the jump from MSFS 2020 to 2024.

I used to play MSFS 2020 on Xbox Series X with a Turtle Beach VelocityOne Universal FCS + mouse/keyboard. Mostly flew airliners, but never really got into jets or helis since I only had a yoke.

I got a PC last year and tried 2024, but couldn't get past the button-mapping setup and eventually gave up. Now I've recently been gifted a Quest 3, and planning to get my hands on a VKB Gladiator EVO + STECS throttle (mini plus), so I'm thinking about giving 2024 another shot.

For those who've made the transition:

• How different is 2024 from 2020?
• Any tips for setting up the VKB controls?
• How difficult is Quest 3 VR to get running well?
• Anything you wish you'd known before making the switch?
• What kind of VR performance/settings should I expect with my PC?

PC: Ultra 9 285K | RTX 5080 16GB | 32GB DDR5-5200 | 2TB SSD

TLDR: Basically going from MSFS 2020 + yoke → MSFS 2024 + HOTAS + VR and wondering what I'm getting myself into.

So I’ve finally moved over to a VKB Gladiator and STECS throttle from my old Saitek X56 Rhino HOTAS and… oh my god.

I genuinely wasn’t expecting the difference to be this big.

I paid decent money for the X56 a couple of years ago and, to be fair to it, it’s done alright. I never really thought there was anything massively wrong with it. It was just my HOTAS and I got on with it.

But the VKB stuff is on another planet.

I’ve been flight simming since Flight Simulator 98. Pretty sure I’ve owned basically every MS Flight Simulator since then, plus dabbled in X-Plane and P3D over the years, so I’m comfortably 20+ years into this hobby!

And genuinely, this is probably one of the biggest upgrades I’ve ever made.

The precision is just ridiculous. For years I’ve wondered why my landings were always a bit hit and miss, why I struggled to hold a really smooth approach, why flaring sometimes felt like complete guesswork etc.

Turns out a massive part of it was apparently the controls - even though I never pointed the blame at them.

It’s honestly turned the sim on its head for me. Tiny corrections actually feel like tiny corrections. Flare inputs feel predictable. Throttle movements feel deliberate rather than vaguely asking the aircraft to do something and hoping for the best.

I’m absolutely blown away by it.

My only complaint so far is I really wish Asobo/Microsoft would just include some decent default VKB profiles in MSFS 2024. Getting the STECS throttle properly going from 0-100% was a bit of a haphazard trial-and-error job at first. I figured it out pretty quickly, but I can imagine somebody completely new to flight simming/controller setup having absolutely no idea what they’re supposed to do.

But once it’s set up… wow.

If you’re currently using an X56 and sitting there wondering whether the VKB upgrade is actually going to make much difference, I can only speak for myself, but it’s been night and day.

All these years flight simming and I feel like I’ve suddenly discovered what the controls were supposed to feel like.

Hola a todos!

Va a ser mi primera vez en comprar un sim de vuelo, y viendo todas las ediciones que tiene en Steam, no se por cuál irme…

Quiero decir, soy novato y quiero aprender. Mi idea es iniciar con el pack estándar, para aprender sobre el A320 y el Boeing 747, que son los comerciales que más conozco, pero si quisiera en un futuro volar un ATR 42-600 / 72-600 que son los que llegan a la ciudad donde vivo (incluidos en el pack Aviator), o el An-225 por su historia, puedo comprar solo ese avión para volar con él aún teniendo el pack estándar? O debo comprar desde un inicio el pack Aviator? Y no existe el A380?

Y también he visto algunos post de algo llamado Marketplace, y que los aviones son costosos… me podrían explicar, por favor? Y qué aeropuertos están disponibles? Se pueden comprar también? Es que no quiero gastar mi dinero y después arrepentirme de la decisión, agradezco cualquier información

As the title says,

Should i buy a 9060xt 16gb, a 4070 or maybe save up for a 5070?
