  1. I've never had any problems with 5.4 that have made me to want to revert to 4.5. I think it looks and runs fine. I haven't had any serious freeze or stutter problems either.
  2. I've been using the FFB stick for a couple of years as a nosewheel tiller. I disabled all FFB axes and buttons I don't use, in the P3D controls menu. I sometimes get stick movement, but it doesn't affect anything in the sim. I would make sure your FFB throttle control is disabled. I also disabled FFB in P3D.
  3. In the real world if I made a smooth landing in the B777, I'd say bye bye to the passengers. If the landing sucked I'd stay in the cockpit until all the passengers got off. I never really needed to know what the landing FPM decent rate was, since it was fairly obvious. Same thing in the sim.
  4. Same here. I only use my Flight simming computer for flying and nothing else. I have no anti-virus installed. You just have to use common sense and stay away from garbage websites and their products.
  5. Yea, I've seen clouds slowly drifting by from left to right for years but have become totally desensitized to it.
  6. No wonder so many simmers call MSFS an arcade game for the "pilots" that "fly" with a tight grip on their Xbox controllers.
  7. I heard the entire Orbx library for v6 will be released next week. 😂 I also still believe in Santa, the Easter Bunny, and the Tooth Fairy.
  8. I did a clean installation of 6.1.38. I guess it's just a habit of mine to delete the old stuff and install the new.
  9. I wish Orbx would come on board with v6. The latest v6 stock ground textures and land class don't look nearly as good as v5.4 looks with Orbx products. I know about all the tweaks you can make, but actual v6 products would be a lot better. Orbx said they were taking "baby steps" to support v6, but that's just another way of saying don't hold your breath waiting for it.
  10. I still occasionally get the DXGI error message with my 1080ti, which, of course, trashes the flight. If it happens at the beginning of the flight, it's annoying, but if it happens a few hours in, it really word not allowed me off. I'm going to have new system built soon, so I can live with it until then.
  11. Well, I've read the reviews on the Crucial nvme and although most are positive, several users have said it failed early on. I suppose this could happen with any drive though. I'm planning on two 2 TB drives instead of one 4TB. If I decide to have 2 sims, including that other one from another company on my machine, I can keep them totally separated. I know many simmers do it all on one drive, but I prefer 2. I'll just wait for Samsung, since I also like the Samsung Magician tool.
  12. I'm holding off building a new computer until Samsung releases nvme's that are compatible with PCI Express gen 5. I've had a new 3090ti sitting in its factory sealed box for a year and I'm still waiting. I'm going to get the latest hardware when I build the new machine and will probably get a new GPU when Nvidia comes out with the next series. The 3090ti should be OK till then. I don't know why Samsung is so late to the party. Enjoy your new setup.
  13. From what I've seen on the forums, it doesn't work well in V6. The PFD's and the NDs are blacked out. I have real world experience on the B777.
  14. I don't know much about VR, but I would strongly suggest a 2 TB SSD and an additional data drive. I have a ton of addons on my P3D v5 setup, and my 1 TB SSD is almost completely full. I'm getting a new machine built with all the latest hardware. Finances permitting, I suggest you do the same instead of buying the one you're considering since running sims is getting more and more demanding. " Future Proofing" is always a good idea.
