X-Plane is great, but it's missing a crucial feature: auto-save during flight. Often, when flying for an hour or two, the game can crash due to a power cut or PC failure. If auto-save were implemented, it would allow users to resume from where the sim or computer had shut down, rather than starting the flight from the beginning. Therefore, auto-save is a crucial feature that needs to be added to X-Plane.

[@Mr.Martini549]

I gave up on XP12 about a year ago. The software crashes were too much. All of my purchased add-on/plugins that claimed they were certified to run on it, well several don’t. If and when I give it a try again I’ll probably start with plain vanilla X-plane. Get it stable and add one add-on at a time to see how it performs. For now, I’ve been on MSFS.

I have been using Xplane since #9 in middle school! It’s actually what got me into aviation! I am now in IFR training and I like using it to run approaches and holds, arcs. However, the C172 G1000 has several issues. I’m using a new MacBook Pro so it runs fine, but the knobs on the CRS/BARO or the FMS or the HDG on the MFD get stuck or lag or take forever to use. They’re not easy to control with mouse and keyboard. It took me almost 10 minutes to input my minimums into the approach using the FMS key because it was going 10ft at a time.. click click.. lag..click.. undo..click..

Glad to hear that the shadows have been smoothed out. Long overdue.

[@piloto_loco]

so glad you do something for the helicopters. whiteout/brownout improvements are welcome, but what we also wait for is a major improvement to the downwash - which sould create a move from center out spiderweb animation on ground moving tons of air and material away from underknief into all directions, That effect should be brought into relation to planemaker's aircraft data, including the power produced by the actual rotor. a blackhawk pushes far more mass than a robinson. best seen over water (turning the surface into white circles double the size of the mainrotor blade disk), visualize it. But even more i plee for a more non-linear velocity vector. Mind the macro-dynamics of the air mass onto the airframe is not only responded by its cross sections, that would be too simple, but forces center line side- and upwards without actually losing the flight direction. this non-stabile attitude behaviour should become part of x-plane's heli flying. thank you austin.

[@flyblackhawk]

@@americanboy48 clear your memory, if you use windows, check your ram settings that can use a lot of your system resources. i set it to 5 minutes so RAM can add new scenery while flying larger distances. That also prevents from CTD. Not sure why this hack is not being told by laminar, but every pc user should actually know about such basics. Autosave which you request was meant for games back in the 80's of last century. Memorizing terrabytes of data during a longer flight would not only make your pc slower but require massive storage and processing resources. You don't want that. Try the memory clearing instead and get at least the rid of crashes so you don't need to replay things. By the way, x-plane does have a replay function, so flights are in fact recorded and progress is autosaved. however, a CTD would clear that memorized data. saving the flight progress must be done manually which is easy to do.

[@flyblackhawk]

helicopters have less carrying surface than fixed wing, the main rotor delivers the energy instead. Yes, they are less stabile during forward flight, because air can cross the object from all sides since there is no such flat surfaces. Only the fuselage's cross section. wind whirls can therefore push the centerline much more than with fixed wing aircraft, so the velocity vector travels quite a bit. Either planemaker seems not calculating this, or x-plane does not have a sophisticated wind model. simply pushing air stream from the front onto a cross section is probably only half the job.

[@CubPilot84]

Been back flying the Beta lately and XP12 is coming along really nice team! Way to go and keep it up.

[@WalkrFilms]

I have been using xplane since xplane 9 in middle school. It’s actually what got me into aviation. Now using xplane 12 for IFR training, but the buttons on the PFD and MFD in the G1000 get stuck when selecting a course or HDG, or using the FMS knob. It’s super difficult to use and could be improved a lot to help me load approach plates and procedures. It takes way too long to input the minimums from an approach plate! Im using a 2024 MacBook Pro so other than that it runs great. I really hope you guys take this into consideration and keep up the great work!

Going in the right direction but scenery needs further improvement. Some of us are VFR/student pilots. My practice area has chimneys, fuel farms, water towers you won't find in x-plane. MSFS tends to have more accurate VFR scenery depending on where you fly!

[@paulsaulpaul]

I wish the OSM scenery was double the current resolution (selectable when downloading would be even better) and updated much more frequently. Bodies of water, rivers, etc. are just way off due to the low mesh resolution. My understanding is that the low resolution was picked originally due to physical media distribution. Most people download it online now, bandwidth and storage has come down in price, and computers have more power these days. The OSM data changes frequently for some areas. Would be nice to see that updated monthly or every quarter.

Hello. X Plane 12 is a great flight simulator. I only have one more request: fix this error when the plane is in the middle of a cloud and from the external view I can see the nasty white-gray outlines of the plane. It has been this way since the very beginning of XP12. Other than that it's ok.

[@rodriosss]

Congratulations, your work is incredible. Really sensational. But I would like to question something that has bothered me for years. When will we have more reliable avionics that are not from third parties? For example: I have Carenado planes with G1000 avionics that work but leave much to be desired. The system is incomplete because it lacks features. I bought it to try to better prepare myself for obtaining my type rating, but it ended up not being very useful because my focus is on the operation of the aircraft systems and avionics rather than the flight itself. Will we have, at some point, something viable for pilots to better prepare for exams?

Simply put, the pedals are used not only for braking but also for delicate correction of direction changes. You won't get this on one axis for both pedals at the same time. If something like this is enough for you, use the parking brake button. Alternatively, assign two buttons as left and right brake on hotas or use the keyboard.

It uses both data from tables AND actual simulation from surfaces of the airplane and weight distribution; and add to that the weather system (wind currents, cloud behavior, etc). which is, simply speaking, outstanding. For example, flying a glider makes sense in fs2020, since currents and terrain interact. Also, the terrain tech is amazing.

Please add some missions if I am flying I would like to feel accomplished by delivering the president or having a engine failure that I did not expect

[@TFJjaag24601]

I love the sparks but on every aircraft I turned off failures and my gear still wouldn’t drop

[@topgungrandpa1]

how do you make it so that when you break the wings in the fails section it renders it?

[@Unknwon__now]

I have a question, is it possible to make a 3 spool jet engine in plane maker?
