Ah, Italy, a beautiful country!
(But I still don’t understand why you cannot have pizza for lunch 🤔)

What in the frozen hell, who stated that bull? 😂

(but yes, you'll be prosecuted and shot on sight if you attempt pizza for breakfast. With extreme prejudice.)
 
Cooee, Mr Grizzly!

New version came out yesterday. It's now the standard ~300MB download, and a further 7.5GB in-game. I had a problem installing it initially, apparently because I have about 30GB of free addons in my Community folder, but the solution was simply to move that folder out & then do the update. Afterwards, just move it back in and it works fine.

Anyway, bunch of fixes. Nothing earth shattering I don't think, but maybe fixes one or two pet peeves.

Patch notes 1.10.7.0

Did you notice if the Drunk Thor bug is fixed? Didn't had the chance to try it yesterday.

I love updates and bug fixes as much as the next guy, but why is every update so HUGE? I'm not seeing anything in the patch notes that implies the addition of tons of high res textures.

I haven't actually flown with it yet - just did the update and checked that it worked. I'll get to it this weekend at some point.

Only thing on the weather is this:
  • Metar data refresh issue has been fixed
So if it's that, then yes, if not, no. 🤷‍♀️

Oh, one thing that did jump out is that they've rewritten the TAA algorithm in the game. Be interesting to see how that looks.

They've improved the night lighting, which probably involved a lot of models being shifted etc. Also a big hole in Brazil which presumably had to be filled with something. :ROFLMAO:
 
The weather appears fixed - breezy night last night in London, I should have taken something larger but this was my landing in a 25kt wind, fortunately it was almost head on, but getting to the airport was all over the place!

Also pre-patch, I was flying the 747 from O'Hare to Toronto and had a HUGE tail wind - look at my IAS and then the GS in the second MFD (top left corner) - it went over 150kts at one point. No wonder I thought I was getting there quickly! :D

Also the new weekly challenge is a stormy landing where the runway is in a field and the lights marking the runway are pumpkins - you have a big flash of lightning and some of your instruments stop working... (Need to get a screenshot! ;-) )

Autopilot is much better now (at least in the TBM 930), much smoother when transitioning out of climb and leveling out. Flew a few times yesterday after the patch, but nothing earth shattering, still it's nice to see them rolling out improvements.

I don't think my 1080 does justice to the graphics, but in general I'm pretty satisfied with the game, and looking forward to continued improvements, and VR! Will be updating the GPU for that, but the 3070 (which is what I think I'll probably get) was sold out a few minutes after release. :rolleyes: No hurry, the Reverb isn't set to arrive before December...
 
We don't need to, we already know there's a special circle waiting for you in hell. Right beside the circle for those who drink cappuccinos during lunch!
Reminds me of school mate. Half Italian, half German. We'd never noticed his Italianness weren't it for the little completely inconspicuous detail of preparing a tomato pasta sauce. It took me years to understand him, but when we put in the cream he went nuts on epic rant how we Germans would prepare EVERYTHING with cream. He even did the gesticulations and when I remarked it makes the sauce stick nicely to the pasta and how else would we prepare a proper sauce - well, I maybe shouldn't have said it, but I fondly remember it still.

Perhaps this video sheds some light on it... I say perhaps because I haven't watched it yet, saved it for later as I'm still finishing "work"...
