  I understand there may be higher-priority updates, but I think this particular feature deserves attention. The shader-based prop animation introduced in msfs24 is, in my view, a significant step forward. It removes that harsh and unrealistic transition between a static propeller and a spinning one, which has always been visually jarring. Beyond just looking smoother, it adds a real sense of volume to the prop disc—both from external views and from inside the cockpit. The way it interacts with lighting is also a big improvement. Reflections from the sun and other light sources feel much more natural, which enhances overall immersion.

  Those SDK changes seem promising to my untrained eye, hopefully they're a step towards fixing things in the sim like how you can't reduce RPM in the TBM and compensate with torque; you'll just bleed off airspeed anyway. Of course, I'm sure they're subject to change without notice (or documentation) until SU5 drops

  Hi, thank you for your reply - it is really interesting how MSFS provides the data differently. I found a way to get the name easily, cause I am also using Simhaptic with a Buttkicker - and this software is more...let's say intelligent than the Moza Cockpit. This detects automatically which aircraft gets loaded (on MSFS, X-Plane or DCS) and it shows the internal name. For your aircrafts those are: bksq-aircraft-baron bksq-aircraft-baronpress bksq-aircraft-baronturbo bksq-aircraft-turbineduke And those names work as well for the Moza presets.

  @Jiblet said in In Praise of Starship - Thank You Nick!: I don't suppose you have a usable list of the airports you visited do you? As a matter of fact, yes. I got the original off of flightsim.to and made a few edits to suit my trip. I can't swear to it, but it sure looks like every country with a landable airport is represented with at least one stop. I added Reunion Island because the original flew right past it, and even though it's a French dependency and thus technically redundant, it's right there! How can you not go? I also added a leg to Antarctica, you can't really call it a "world tour" unless you touch every continent? I don't think it's in the flight plan, but I also threw in a helicopter side trip to Monaco's heliport for completeness, since there's no airport there that Starship can operate out of. Anyway, here's the link. Enjoy! Epic World Tour Cheers, Mark

  So now I had time to check - sorry it was my bad. Too stupid question. In the failures tab there was activated "1x Realtime" and so I had a failure with this compressor. I did not expect this. But now I know that I should check this each time I fly. I love the study level details of your aircrafts....was just too stupid to realize this.

  @Black-Square EGDR Runways 18 & 24 have their signs swapped as well.

  Thanks for the great offer, but it's a little too far away... I'm from Bavaria/Germany. And my wife is terrified of spiders So maybe in the next life - but who knows....

  Just sharing my experience, something I haven't encountered for a long time now, a gradual performance degradation over long flight. TLDR: reset the weather radar if sim become stuttery/crawling slow Was doing a long vatsim flight today and after around 2.5 hrs encountered stutters that won't go away. [image: cc8d0502-2e93-466d-8ca7-d0c1ae04db7b.png] After an hour or so sim came down to crawl, tried changing settings/clearing rolling etc/nothing would affect this [image: 9b599774-66de-4dff-a7b5-0c1c7dfb1306.png] Suddenly I recalled posting here ages ago about some constant FPS loss when the wx radar is turned on...so I turned the radar off, eureka!! [image: 780602a3-06e4-4fee-9bf2-54b06b5c1642.png] Now during that flight I still saw gradual performance degradation and luckily another WX reset did the trick. I do however think that the radar range also affects the performance (usually using 120NM in cruise) so I've reduced it to 40NM and that seems to be stable till the end of the flight. Just wanted to share this in case you will encounter this, not sure if this is a bug that manifests only with the TBM850 or a global sim issue with the last beta. *( and didn't reported to MSFS yet.... sorry but I've lost my faith in their bug handling and lacking communication)
