24 hours compared to two years in ASP3D. 24 hours is hardly historical. Name the ATC program that will be as good as RC4. It took several years to get 64-bit Concorde for P3D. I doubt even my system would produce 100+fps with the complexity of Concorde's FE panel. How it looks is surely down to the skills of the graphical artist. PMDG VCs look superb in P3Dv5. I'm not aware the MSFS version is better visually. I'm one of those unusual people who is happy with 30fps. It doesn't hammer my system like a 100+ fps would.

- 24H historical weather : this year - No better alternative to Radar Contact : this year - No Concorde : soon, hope this year Plus the Concorde cockpit will look way way better with a triple digits frame rate looking at your PC config.

I totally agree ray..you know my thoughts on FSL at the minute..I did ask how they’re going to get on with the constant updates but apparently it’s not a problem..we on P3D on the other hand have to wait for an update after the sim update..the same goes for active sky..

There are several key features that make it unattractive for me. Constant forced updates; no better alternative to Radar Contact; Some AFCADs locked preventing editing; no Concorde; loads of time required to reprogram my GoFlight units; having to repurchase (for a third time) PMDG aircraft. Starting afresh with scores of third party airports. Was there any need for your sarcastic comment? I see you don't list Concorde in your fleet. That aircraft more than most requires accurate weather and temps. Taking off from any time zone many hours different to yours may not show realistic weather. And a sim that has only cumulus is hardly depicting accurate weather. I run multiple addon programs outside and inside P3Dv5. All work extremely well. No CTDs.

If this is a key feature that makes you decide not to buy it, then I guess everyone can live without your purchase. I have the understanding that Jörg and also Asobo knows pretty much what the community (majority) expects and thats also why MSFS2024 is a thing. However I personally dont care about historical weather because not even the live weather isn't real and accordingly. Until this isn't even fixed, why would we have historical weather. And we all dont know about the "limitations" that comes from the partnership with MeteoBlue and such. Not having several API's for 3rd party addons to inject something into the core sim and or overwrites stuff from the sim is something I am very welcome WHEN the basic/core sim stuff works properly. And I think this journey is well known and understood by Asobo to deliver better core stuff (for example weather). I dont want external addons to run next to MSFS. It shows how even GSX makes even MSFS still unstable and sometimes to crash. Only god knows if its even more up to GSX for example or not. I rather want an Flight Simulator that focus on basic aviation related topics and weather is one key feature. Including weather radar possibility and that everyone runs on the/with the same weather. That brings SO MUCH more benefits than having an API available and everyone can inject what he wants. Edit: And tbh.. we actually know nothing really technical about MSFS2024. Until this changes, I wouldn't really argue about MSFS2024.

Only for the last 24 hours. About time they woke up to what many were requesting. Still won’t convince me to buy it.

Let's file this one under: "Posts that didn't age well" https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/644304-historical-weather-planned-for-msfs-2024/

Latest developer livestream says there will be historical weather in MSFS 2024.

AF2 - AF1 (LFPG-KJFK-LFPG) Lovely supersonic round trip over the Atlantic, flight time LFPG-KJFK 3:34, KJFK-LFPG 3:23

Improvements include tornadoes. There’s been no indication historical weather will be made available. In fact, it had to be explained to Jorge what historical weather is. It took a while for the penny to drop. That tells you all you need to know. There will be no historical weather in MSFS2024.

I dont see a need right now. MSFS 2024 is approaching and we'll see in the next coming weeks how Asobo is improving the weather. Its clear that it needs improvements, more features and this is also noted by Asobo itself. So actually no need for 23Euro.

I have tried, but there is no option to setup Select engine crank, normal and ign..

Under the addons pull down menu, Flightsimlabs.

May I know where the setting is, so I can try it

Have you tried setting this up under the FSLabs assignments?

Hai all.. I'm sorry if this question doesn't deserve to be on this forum. I just bought a Throttle A320 at FlightPM, but when I used it at FSlabs. I cannot make the options for Engine master Switch (Crank, Normal Mode, IGN/Start) using that device. Maybe some of you know how to set it up? I have contacted them but there is no response. Maybe someone can help me..

Zurich to Bilbao:

Its released now at 23 euros plus tax! Regards Tim

Hi Duncan, I did reply here, but it probably got buried. NDAs are SOP in most industries, even more so in ours, so I imagine it isn't too surprising. I know the team is hugely excited to share details on the projects we are working on when we are in a position to do so. Regards, Dunc

Great thanks Norman I'm not sure FSLABS mentioned the NDA before but this gives us confidence why you can't share news and you will when allowed.

Hi Duncan, Whilst the team do indeed remain under NDA, we have said quite a few times since last August that we are continuing to being our existing product line to the MSFS platform.

Hi Andrew, The community are eagerly awaiting FSLABS products if you are under some form of NDA then please just say you are under an NDA and cannot talk about future projects. The Concorde at least should be able to share since that is public knowledge. Nothing since August 15th 2023 people will start to give up on your products, communication is all anyone is asking for. Kind regards Duncan Odgers

....four years later... After treating myself to all the addons I wanted I finally caused an OOM on P3Dv5.4. Specs: 13600k (OC'd to 5ghz) 32gb DDR5 GTX 3080 (10gb VRAM) ORBX: pretty much everything global REX SkyForce REX WWA GSX 2.0 Concorde x64 AIG Traffic (all major airlines installed, airliner traffic set to 50%, all other ai traffic set to 0%) FPS slider set to 30 Mostly default/high settings in P3D, definitely not max Really I'm just surprised that I OOM'd. I thought for sure 32gb RAM/10gb VRAM would be enough for everything but nope. She runs smooth FPS, even at high settings, yet the memory monster hungers for more. C'est la vie I guess. Time to go to 64gb DDR5 and a GTX 4090!

I thought that this may be of some interest; Advanced Historical Weather In addition to including Live and Custom weather modes, we also offer Historical mode with comprehensive global weather data in hourly archives. Dynamic historical playback provides realistic changing weather as per the archived historical timeline. Optionally lock the historical time to your configured simulator time for easy date/time synchronization and control through MSFS.

Yes, none of the civil airliners in MSFS have a working wxr… …apart from the Maddog MD80, the Inibuilds A300, A310, A320, the Working Title B787, B747, the ATR 42 and 72-600’s, the Asobo A320, and all the business jets using the G3000 or GNXi 1000 avionics suite…
