I just stumbled across this news item....

Martin Mars bomber coming to Victoria’s B.C. Aviation Museum - Victoria Times Colonist

I never got around to loading MSFS 2020, due to OS and hardware limitations, and will have to sit this one out too, as I still have the same old computer. But still, I'm excited to see what MSFS 2024...

A slight thread veer...

I think I spent more on HOTAS and Rudder setups over the years than on the computer/monitors themselves. My rudder setups were always problematic due to quality control of...

My Cooler Master HAF 932 full size tower unit (35 pounds give or take) came with removable wheels. On a cushioned rug (that I have) it is still hard to move and requires a good tug to get it moving....

I just hope that MSFS 2024 won't be dependent (to some degree) on their upcoming Windows 12 operating system.

Tommy

Hope all goes well with the new rig as I will be looking for one too. I'm open to AMD too but will wait until the dust settles on the MSFS 2024 release before moving forward on this. That may be a...

Thanks so much for the clarification!

For us rivet counters....

Are the rivets on the real bird, raised, flush, or a combination of both? When I painted in FSX, that drove me nuts, as I need to modify alpha channels, bump mapping,...

Just out of curiosity, are both sides of the prop mapped to the same texture? Just wondering if you add those subtle bands (of the logos on the prop) to the front of the prop without showing up on...

For that price and what I'm seeing in the screen shots, I'd pick that up in a heartbeat.

This might be old news to some, but the first time I've heard of this.

Is this a real time fly-by view, or a video replay fly-by view? I typically don't record my flights.

Tommy

I think Phil is just getting up to speed with MSFS, so these issues appear to be teething pains, and not the end game.

Tommy

I've only had one computer drive me nuts (20 years ago). I did clean reinstalls of the operating system, sim software, removed and reseated all connectors within the computer, swapped memory modules,...

With all of the flying boats that are available for MSFS, I'm hoping that the "Mighty" Martin Mars might someday make it into the lineup.

Looks interesting! Must be a precursor to more Sci-Fi releases! Something for everyone.

Tommy

I went from FSX to X-Plane 11, while I waited for the dust to settle on FS2020 so I could finally spec out my new computer hardware. Seems I missed the boat.

Tommy

That's where the A-10s come into play.

Tommy

Thanks for the replies! Lots to think about.

Hi all,

I'm looking to replace my Windows 7 Pro based computer system with a new Windows 11 based computer system. I'll probably reuse my monitor/keyboard/mouse. Are there any companies that...
