I am excited to inform you guys that FIP gauges under Logitech Drivers can actually be run properly in MSFS without the need of SPAD.neXt or other similar utilities available on the market. In other words, all existing FSX/P3D gauges in my store are MSFS-compatible ready, despite whether Logitech will have updates supporting MSFS or not.
To run the FIP gauges using Logitech Drivers in MSFS, all you need Continue reading
620: My MSFS Update 5
Finally I got MSFS downloaded successfully today.
Probably the issue I encountered were fixed by the recent update since the installation steps I carried out are the same. Anyway, glad to have it installed eventually. Continue reading
619: XPL G5 with GPS Approach Implemented
Thanks to Michael Sühs who kindly explained the operation of the GPS Approach on the GNS 430 and G1000 to me, the XPL Generic G5 HSI and PFD for X-Plane have been updated to R1r03 and R1r05 respectively with GPS Approach capability. In addition, some bugs were fixed on the two instruments as well.
Download Links have been sent earlier today. Current users should have received the email(s) in their mailboxes by now. If not, Continue reading

617: My FIP Gauges and MSFS
The update patch for MSFS is out, which claims to solve many issues in the first 
release. I still haven’t tried re-installing MSFS yet due to various personal matters. But surely will do it again very soon.
During these days, have received many emails questioning about the compatibility of my FIP gauges with MSFS.
Frankly, due to my current situation of not an MSFS user, I am really not a good person to give a proper answer.
However, some users of my gauges have reported successfully running FIP gauges in MSFS Continue reading
616: Integrated Gauges for XP C172SP
In a survey conducted last year regarding the format of FIP gauges, 68% X-Plane users were interested in the Integrated layout of the C172SP gauges. After a year’s waiting, here it comes at last.
Instead of having seven gauges in the FSX/P3D version, there’s only 3 integrated gauges in the X-Plane version: ALVOR (Altimeter with VOR1 and VOR2); VSADF (Vertical Speed Indicator with ADF); and HDCMP (Heading Gyro with Wet Compass, Engine Hours and RPM Indicator).
Nevertheless, Continue reading
615: My MSFS Update 4
I got refund from Microsoft again and it was even faster than last time. Good job MS Support.
During my wait for the refund, I kept searching similar issues on the Internet and Xbox forum. I found that I am not alone but still my case seems to be a little different from others.
One friend in last Post told me not to go for the DVD version. So, Steam may be the only choice left for me.
Some friends commented there’s really no need to rush for it. Yes, after a second thought, why not? Continue reading
614: My MSFS Update 3
I got the refund from Microsoft Support in about a day after my request. A thumb up to their quick response.
I immediately re-purchase the Standard Version again, hoping that it would solve the issue. Sadly, no. Same issue lingers and doesn’t go.
I really have my head scratched. If it is my DIY PCs, the Surface Pro should be good and shouldn’t encounter the same issue.
There are two things I am thinking now: Continue reading
613: My MSFS Update 2
Here’s another quick update to my status with MSFS. In general, I have tried every suggested fix I could find from the Internet and MS/FS site for the error issue I am facing. Unfortunately, all are helpless.
I was suspecting if I had done something wrong to the two PCs, either before or during or after applying those potential fixes. Then an idea “why not trying it on the Surface Pro?” popped up before I went to bed last night.
I immediately jumped out of bed and did it right away. Although the installer warned me that my Surface Pro doesn’t meet the minimum requirement of MSFS and the performance would be poor, it still carried on to putting the initial part of the game to my laptop.
When MSFS was run to the Content Manager stage for update download, Continue reading
