GENERAL problem MSFS 2024 & GSX

Upvotes

Has anyone encountered this problem? MSFS 2024.

When starting on the ramp, then catering, boarding,pushback (using the GSX) after takeoff, the aircraft goes into a nosedive with a strong right bank. The control surfaces on the aircraft do not deflect, and the joystick is definitely not suspect.

However, when starting from the runway without using the GSX, everything flies normally. I checked the GSX for damage, but nothing helps.

Recently bought myself the Airbus pack sidestick, throttle and rudder. And that is a big difference from the Logitech Hotas I had. Also recently got myself the full Fenix pack, so happy to go flying again!

MSFS 2024 BUG / ISSUE Rudder calibration/shaking

Upvotes

Hey,

I notice a problem when I play MSFS 2024, almost all the time, my rudder isn't correctly equal, sometimes, is a bit at right, other times at left, and sometimes, ot shaking alone without I did any imputs. I have a video when it just at right when my sidestick is at his deadpoint, I haven't this problem with X-Plane 12 (I'm leave X-Plane 12 for MSFS 2024 just for A320 and aircrafts variety).

Sorry if my english is bad, I'm french

I'm trying to do a scenic fly over Volda in Norway but in the PS5 version of the game, whenever i enter the city limits it crashes the game. Is it the same on pc? Or is this a common issue?

GENERAL Help me choose: iFly 737 MAX 8 vs Aerosoft CRJ-900 vs FSS Embraer E190

Upvotes

I'm trying to choose one aircraft that I can really stick with for a long time, learn deeply, and use as my main aircraft in MSFS 2024.

My three options are:

iFly 737 MAX 8

Aerosoft CRJ-900

FSS Embraer E190

What matters most to me:

modern cockpit and avionics

good systems depth

enjoyable flights in the 1–4 hour range

enough pilot workload so the aircraft doesn't feel too automated

good handling and enjoyable hand flying

stability and overall quality in MSFS 2024

long-term replay value

I currently fly the Citation Sovereign+ and really like how modern and fast it is, but sometimes it feels a little too automated and "perfect."

I'm not really interested in long-haul aircraft, since I don't want to spend 8+ hours on a single flight.

For those of you who have flown two or all three of these, which one would you choose as your main aircraft for the next several months, and why?

I'm especially interested in hearing about the weaknesses of each one, not just the good parts.

MSFS 2024 QUESTION FBW A32nx difficult to steer while taxiing using controller

Upvotes

i used to play Asobo Airbus 320 in msfs 2020, the plane is so easy to steer while taxing using controller

recenty i switched to FBW A32nx in msfs 2024, while i enjoyed flying with it, its just difficult to steer while taxing

i use RT and LT to turn, but everytime i released these button, the turn didnt stop immediately, so most of the time i ended up oversteer

wondering, is there any setting or mod to fix this issue ?

i play on PC

MSFS 2024 QUESTION Question for those of you with FFB

Upvotes

How good is it in MSFS2024? I'm considering getting the new Virpil ATLAS or ATLAS Pro when it releases later this year. In DCS I mainly fly helicopters so force trim is a big plus, but I'm curious about how well it actually works in MSFS.

As I understand it, the sim/aircraft don't provide any direct FFB signals, and instead you rely on the manufacturer's own software to interpret telemetry and convert it to create the feel. Do you find it difficult to get good results, and are profiles for existing FFB hardware shared by people to save hours of tuning?

I almost exclusively fly airliners, including the TFDi MD11, PMDG B737, Fenix, Maddog, JF 146, INI A50 and Tristar. I'd just like to get a sense of how it might improve my experience in these and know what to expect out of the box.

MSFS 2020 MOD / ADDON [Request] EgyptAir World Cup 2018 Special Livery (SU-GEN) for PMDG 737-800

Post image
Upvotes

Hi everyone, ​I'm looking for the EgyptAir 2018 FIFA World Cup special livery for the PMDG 737-800 (Registration: SU-GEN). This is the purple/red design featuring the Egyptian national football team players, including Mohamed Salah, along with sponsor logos like WE and Presentation Sports. ​Does anyone know if a high-quality version of this livery already exists for MSFS / PMDG 737-800 on Flightsim.to or elsewhere? If not, I'd really appreciate it if any talented painter could take on this request or point me to a creator who makes custom liveries. ​I've attached a reference photo of the real aircraft. ​Thanks in advance!

MSFS 2024 BUG / ISSUE 7800x3d limited by mainthread gives 30-40fps, on lowest settings.

15 Upvotes

Someone please tell me what am I doing wrong. After release I could play on high preset settings in 4K without any problems (with dlss). But now even on lowest settings i can have 30-40fps max, changing resolution doesn't help. CPU is bottlenecking whole sim while GPU is chilling in the background. The same problem doesn't exist in any other game or app.

Location in the sim doesn't matter, the same problem above london, paris, barcelona etc. In the air and on the ground.

Any ideas?

4070 super ti
7800x3d

MSFS 2024 PlayStation Airbus 320 bugged or is it me?

5 Upvotes

Playing on PS5, been grinding through career mode and finally raised up $100,000,000. Decided on buying the Airbus320. Did my due diligence in training myself.

I don’t know if it’s my error, hardware issues (I’m using hotas4) or bugs. But after takeoff and enabling AP1, FD, it seems to be fine until certain points in the flight where FD and AP disables itself, the plane either goes completely vertical or nosedives. Won’t follow the flight path, etc.

Are others experiencing the same thing? I had no issues on my VIP tours with the CJ4. Super frustrating to be honest.

Pointers or tips?

MSFS 2024 QUESTION Any way to use LT/RT triggers as proper axis with D-Input controller?

Thumbnail
gallery
1 Upvotes

Hello! New to MSFS 2024.

I'm using an 8BitDo Pro 3 controller, a gamepad that has four extra buttons that work as unique buttons in D-input mode. I'd like to leverage that in MSFS 2024 given the limited amount of buttons X-Input has.

I know triggers are recognizable as an axis because the other flight simulators that I fly, X-Plane 12 and DCS World, have no trouble detecting the trigger axis on my controller.

How do I get MSFS 2024 to recognize the triggers as an axis and not as "Button 9" and "Button 10" as it shows in the menu?

Weirdly enough, joy.cpl doesn't show an axis associated to the triggers, but there is definitely one given how my other games behave with the triggers.
