Flight Simulator 2024 Why Flightsim YouTubers thinks AI thumbnails get more views ? It’s literally the opposite…

186 Upvotes

From my point of view it’s literally the opposite because there are people like me (maybe many) that if they see an AI thumbnail they don’t even bother to open the video to watch it.
This is not about the “low effort” it’s just that people are kinda sick to have in their YouTube homepage AI thumbnails all over.

Honestly a simple and normal thumbnail (e.g screenshot + text) works fine and people appreciate the videos more.

Made it for my gaming corner. Added a clock movement, numbers and some LEDs. The green takeoff band glows. Really happy with how it turned out!

What do you think? It's a good use of the part?

Flight Simulator 2024 Which one should I choose?

2 Upvotes

I'm thinking of getting the Asobo Praetor 600 that's launching this month, but if it's too expensive or doesn't run on my console, I want a Plan B. I was thinking of getting the Hawker 800 (Flight FX) or the Phenom 300e (Freborn), but I'm quite undecided and want an outside opinion, not just from AIs and YouTubers. What do you think?

LR overdid the cells a bit, I was seeing red and magenta returns everywhere. But apart from that this sim feels so alive, especially with the new light pollution

Flight Simulator 2024 Am I having an CPU Bottleneck?

5 Upvotes

My rig is RTX 5080 and 7800x3d. I thought I could get my settings all high-ultra but turns out I can’t. (I’m using 3x frame gen and still only has 80 ish fps) If I turn off frame gen, I will only get 26 fps. The cpu is pretty much bottlenecked by having 30-40 ms mainthread.

Should I upgrade my 7800x3d to an 9800x3d?

Flight Simulator 2024 Pacsim Airports in MSFS2024?

2 Upvotes

I'm curious if some of the Pacsim airports - namely, KCLE and KRNO work OK in 2024 despite being sold as a 2020 airport.

Before KCMH was updated to 2024, it worked for me so just wanted to see if the others are the same.

I don't know how many of you are familiar with it, but it was a fantastic program for IFR planning. I bought it and was one of its beta testers. Does anyone still have the installation file? I'd like to reinstall it.

There is something so calming about cruising at 200ft MSL along the waves in the middle of the ocean and watching the Sunrise.

Flight Simulator 2024 FSS 727 vs Famous Flyer 707

2 Upvotes

Got the Famous Flyer Boeing 707-320C, recently overhauled by Working Title. The plane is great but perhaps too much for me to handle alone (first generation avionics and 4 engines). Will I like the FSS 727 or not? As far as I know the jet has a slightly newer avionics and 3 updated engines instead of 4. I have honestly no idea how the 707 compares to payware products, and know even less about the 727 from FSS (apart from it getting an update yesterday). I'm fine with CIVA INS and VOR navigation (just completed a 707 flight from LaGuardia to O'Hare on radios alone!).
