NEWS: Render SCaling is Broken
Informed by Nicoooo! in the Discord Server that Asobo has confirmed the “Render Scaling” in SU6 is broken. Night Lightings will disappear when the scale is set below 100 and lights will float when the scale is greater than 100. The error will be resolved in the coming hotfix.
Since I mostly fly in day time, I’ll keep the scale at 90 and change it to 100 when necessary. Thanks Nicoooo!
735: My SU6 Settings with AN RTX3080 Ti
As the price of graphics cards goes down a bit lately, I decided to replace my 3-year-old GTX1080 Ti card with an RTX3080 Ti card last week. I was planning to get the ASUS ROG version but it was out of stock and no schedule for next shipment at that moment. So I got the TUF edition instead.
Frankly, with 12GB GDDR6X memory and a 1,755MHz over-clock rate, it is still a very powerful card to be used in MSFS for the next few years…I guess.
In general, I got an extra 75% to more than double the framerates with the new card straight from the box. Not to mention I pushed many settings to Ultra in the Sim.
Here’s the update of my Graphics Settings in SU6 with the new card. And I listed the framerates I roughly got from various activities and locations at the bottom of the table. Continue reading

733: A Possible SU6 Fix to Store Users
While I was staying up late downloading the SU6 in the middle of the night, I received an email from John H. Helms saying that he couldn’t get his MSFS (Store version) updated to SU6.
He said the Sim notified him there was an update and took him to the Store. But there was no update option at all.
He tried resetting the MS Store and logging off the Store, rebooting computer, and logging on again. Neither worked. He added that all previous updates worked without any problem.
While he was a bit confused about it all, he thought he did the followings to get the update eventually: Continue reading
732: SU6 IS Good
After spending about 2.5 hours completing the SU6 Update, I played with it for 30 minutes with all addons and settings I last used in SU5. Although I couldn’t tell what differences are exactly made, I am pretty impressed that the SU6 is quite good.
Regarding the update process, Continue reading
731: MSFS PA28R-161 Warrior II Gauges
The FIP Gauges for Just Flight’s MSFS PA28-161 Warrior II have been released.
Compared to the company’s earlier Arrow III and Arrow III-IV Turbo, the ASI, ATT and Engine Gauges for the Warrior II are largely different; the ADF, VOR1, VOR2 and RPM are slightly varied; and the ALT, HDG, HSI, TCR and VSI are identical. 
Therefore, for those who own the Arrow III-IV Bundle Gauges, there is a special discount to these new Warrior II Gauges. Anyone insterested could click here Continue reading
