I'm afraid there is not a tidy solution... In my Steam install, the MSFS 2020 joystick controller profile is stored here: D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\424538193\1250410\remote\ inputprofile_0637663488 There are profiles for keyboard and mouse in the same folder. I have copied and saved these in a desktop folder called, well I can't tell you, because the forum software won't allow the language usage. These can be opened with Notebook, the contents for my joystick are as below. Turns out the quickest way to change this is to overwrite everything below the first four highlighted lines,...

Add-ons like AIG can put a huge performance hit on airports such as LAX, but you have to try and be sensible and tone down the settings on traffic (framerates can drop to 20-25fps at LAX). Although nice to see it in action, dealing with a busy airports with 50-100 flights all moving about (on the ground and in the sky) is a bit of a nightmare if all you want to do is fly. And, I don't want to spent 30 minutes plus, waiting to take off. Less busy airports like Auckland and Wellington don't suffer from that problem. I haven't invested in any add-on aircraft for MSFS yet (but I did have a lot of...

*DO* figure out the bit about linking GUIDs to letters so you can refer to your USB devices by a letter instead of device number - it's not hard, and it will save you HOURS of frustration when (not if) your computer decides to renumber your devices because they didn't all clock in in the usual order one bootup.

Dbcunnz, Sorry to hear about your problems with MS2020. I would have helped you but I am still using FSX and have ZERO experience with MS2020 or MS2024 When you see specific error message number, why not use Google to see what results say about the error messages and see if there are solutions for the error messages?? Another suggestion is to join any virtual airline that has extremely active community forum and see if they can help you. Also maybe join Avsim and SOH forums to see if they can help you? Regards, Aharon

Disregard the post as it’s back to CTDs. :wacko: It's been interesting observing pilots on Vatspy disappearing from the screens when they encounter the "Marlborough triangle" and disappear. I think that I may have sorted the issue. I used Corsten's cache removal tool (in the UI mode) and selected items 1 to 6 in the list. I had done this previously (after a new GPU driver release and after the update) However I did not use item 6 ...clearing the scenery index. Since doing this I have successfully spawned and flown at NZNS and completed a NZWN to NZCH flight that caused CTDs...

You might want to try out Tiny Windows 11 then. I'm actually quite happy with Win11 on both my work laptop and sim PC. Neither have missed a beat. I have an older laptop - currently running Linux Mint (Ubuntu), which behaves 90% of the time but installing a new(er) Wi-Fi printer was a bit of a mission. I wish I'd seen the video in your link before!!!

Thanks guys...the Honeycomb ones look very good but a bit beyond my budget...and maybe not available here? Might just go with new logitech ones. My other pedals have been second hand so it would be nice to just get some new ones.

Yes, plenty of people upgrade things like monitors so have some nice gear for sale, it's probably the way I'd go these days. I was thinking that if I still lived in Canty I'd pop around with my old one, but that must be 10 years old now, so probably not the best solution anyway:)
