On top of that, msfs2020 feels way more alive, while the other two sims feel like dead worlds. Both P3D and Xplane feel like there’s no actual atmosphere, but just a gigantic windtunnel, it’s in fact the first thing I noticed when trying Msfs2020. There is no other reason to keep using Xplane or P3D, both graphically outdated by A LOT, compared to Msfs2020, both lacking of scenery, unless you do a ton of work yourself, and even then it’s not the same, both lacking of an actual atmosphere, compared to msfs2020’s organic flying feel, even Xplane doesn’t come close compared, in that organic aspect. Msfs2020 is the new kid on the block, meaning we don’t even know what a halfway ‘finished’, version of msfs2020 will look like, and despite this, the only, and I mean only, reason to still fire up either of those two sims (right now at this point in time) are airliners, specific 3rd party planes and choppers. Xplane and P3D are established sims with a 20 year legacy. You’re comparing apples to oranges though. Now what can I add to break this.For some P3d and X-plane 11 will probably still be the ‘go to’ for certain sim aspects Together with Zibo 738 and OrthoXP or Orbx we’re living in the future man.

Those three changes made a huge difference to how these things work together, and although I can see some steam leaking out of the PC now and again, does work well. The one downside is that you will need PDFs in X-Plane AviTab Virtual Tablet as the parking to gates help that P2ATC gives you won’t be there. Makes it so much easier in VR that you essentially don’t ever need to see the Pilot2ATC window anyway (if you must there is MoveVR that does work, but it a real framerate drain - X-Plane MoveVR Plugin). ‘WS11 - Established on the ILS for 26R’ and then the co-pilot will read back any confirmation radio messages (plus change frequencies for you if you’re lazy like me). These two settings make a huge difference, as you can push to talk, say a command verbally, i.e. In VR that ain’t happening (well, not after the flight planning stage on the ground), but you can use it with the help of some really important co-pilot options. The last tip is that Pilot2ATC usually expects to be seen on a desktop on another monitor or something.

Here it is (use your own windows username of course): X:/Users//App Data/Roaming/HiFi/AS_XPL/Weather/current_wx_snapshot.txt The tricky bit was finding the Active Sky Weather folder. To do this, click in the ‘AI Aircraft’ at the top of the flight planner: Yes, you can now sit at 26L and hear ‘You are number 6 for takeoff’ and ‘Traffic alert, 3 o’clock, 270 - do you have them in sight?’. This allows Pilot2ATC to ‘see’ the aircraft, as they are X-Plane AI (minus slow drawing model) which means we get TCAS and routing. To fix that you can add ‘dummy AI’ aircraft, that World Traffic 3 draws but X-Plane uses a tiny one line icon for. One problem is that Pilot2ATC doesn’t know about the WT3 external traffic. So the goal is to get them all to play nicely.

It doesn’t really do this that well so far, but it is certainly an upgrade over the default clouds and winds. I really only wanted it for the ability to do historical weather, but the feature that caught my eye was in being able to plan a route and have the weather transition better. More info here - World Traffic 3 for X-PlaneĪctive Sky XP | HiFi Simulation Technologies Active Sky XP was recently on sale, so I picked it up. World Traffic takes a lot of setting up (a post of its own) but once using the AFRE Real traffic data pack here things look alive. World Traffic I got fed up with empty skies and my system crawling to its knees with 3 AI flights.

I use it in VR via a button here - X-Plane VR Push to Talk and a general overview here - Pilot2ATC. The speech recognition (all Windows stuff underneath) is great.

It’s good because it is nice at both ‘do some patterns at the local field’ GA plus the full IFR SID/J way transitions/STAR of the heavies.

I really enjoy jumping to IFR Route Analyzer - FlightAware entering a common route and then setting it up in Pilot2ATC. It provides the missing GA and IFR ATC communications so sorely missing in X-Plane. Despite the crimes against humanity of the home page web design, behind that facade there is a really nice ATC and speech input/output tool. My latest pain has been getting the following to all talk to each other: My sub-conscious plan seems to be to keep adding stuff until the PC starts burning like blow-torch thrown at a magnesium depot. I think I have a masochistic streak when it comes to X-Plane and trying to break it.
