Although I’ve been very cautious with face mask on all the time when going out and seldom go to crowded places , and had 4 doses 
of vaccines last year, I eventually failed to avoid from Covid-19 infection two days ago after nearly 4 years.
Thanks goodness my wife is safe.
According to scientiests, the current virus is less severe than its early existence . But I have to say that it is still a very uncomfortable experience.
Wish you all good health.
Stay Safe and Happy Flying
The GENERIC G5 PFD and HSI for MSFS have been updated with not only the RNAV compatibility but also many bug fixes and feature enhancements.
Following is a quick video showing the Generic G5 PFD, HSI and Multi-Shared VOR1 on a C172 flying from 5WA8 to KQHM with RNAV approach activated under auto-pilot mode in doubled or quadrupled speed.
After the recent Sim Update 12, some of my nVidia Control settings have been modified a little accordingly.
The Shader Cache Size in the Global 
Settings, for one, has been changed to 10GB from the “Driver Default” which is set to 1GB.
The increase is based on an assumption to avoid slow startups, performance issues and stuttering once the cache size is reached.
And second, the Monitor Technology options in both the Global Settings and Program Settings have been changed to “Fixed Refresh“.
As from the description in the nVidia Control panel states, the “G-SYNC Compatible” option is best for demanding games with highly variable FPS. Since MSFS is the only game in my system and I don’t see its FPS fluctuating greatly, I therefore set it to “Fixed”.
The results from both changes seem to bring additional enhancements in smoothness.
You can find the details of my nVidia Settings in full here.

Download links for the updates have been sent to all users earlier today. If you have not received it, please check your spam folder first.
Following the release of the Multi-Shared VORs updated with RNAV compatibility last 
week, the MSFS DHC-2 Beaver VOR1 has been revised similarly with the same capability.

Thanks to Bryan in the US, the long-missed vertical guidance on my Multi-Shared VOR1 and VOR2 FIP Gauges under RNAV approach has been implemented finally.
Furthermore, as the NAV/GPS toggling of the VOR2 on the C172 Classic is now independent from the VOR1, an extra NAV-only VOR2 is therefore included.
This is done so because Continue reading
The C172 Wet Compass+Annunciator (CMP+ANPL) FIP Gauge for MSFS has just been updated.
Function-wise, the update is of no difference to its earlier brothers.
Layout-wise, the sound panel, the OMI and NAV/GPS indicators of the new version are still situated at the bottom of the compass, and the annunciator panel will pop up under the compass window when triggered. It also comes with backlit.
However, the sizes of the sound panel, the OMI and NAV/GPS indicators on the new version have shrinked significantly and dimmed a little to give the overall compass+annunciator design a more balance and sleek appearance. In comparison, the earlier design looks a bit bulky.
Furthermore, Continue reading
Like many friends, my system has an Elgato Stream Deck so that I can minimize the needs of using keyboard and memorizing hotkeys. The device had been working pretty well until recently I found it behaving erratic with intermittent non-responding 
errors when switching profiles.
I tried reinstalling the app and restoring from previous profile backups. I took various ideas and suggestions from the Internet, too. All attempts were futile.
After many weeks of trying, I decided to reinstall everything and create all profiles from scratch again, hoping that would solve the issue.
During re-creating the first few profiles, I eventually found out the real cause behind the non-responding errors that was troubling me. Continue reading
I always start my flight with a fixed weather preset, and then change it to Live Weather or another weather preset when I want to.
However, I keep forgeting how to configure this very first “set-and-forget” preset. So here’s an image to remind myself just in case. You probably don’t need it.
