Thank you guys for the incredible support! Did you catch the $10 gift card in this video? Also, I already recorded a precise tutorial for "Your first VFR flight on VATSIM", hopefully that style of more educational content is also something you guys will like! :)
some great suggestions there, sounds very rushed though, may be a 2ms extra pauses so you can breathe may make it sound more natural. I've found the gift card, but it doesn't seem to do anything on just flight, not even it's been used.
@@eddthirty4065 I'll check about the gift card. As for the breathes, we just cut a lot of them out, I do actually think a bit between sentences sometimes ahha. For the giftcard, let me see if it has been redeemed already first, if not, let me know what exactly didn't work so I can email their support :) Oh and one note: the USD gift cards are only usable in the US store, while the EUR gift cards are in the EU store. There's no way to change manually, so maybe that's way. I had an EU card (i think still unused) in my prev video btw :)
Hi, Great Video❤ But Discord says, that the discord invite link is invalid? Could you please Update the link? 😊
hi PYLT nice video thanks can i use mods on the msfs from gamepass do you know ?????
Genuinely surprised to see the amount of subscribers you have. I had this video recommended through the algorithm and based on the quality alone, assumed that you had at least 100k or more. The b-roll footage is all super clean and great, the editing it top notch, the audio is all leveled and sounds really good, everything here felt polished from start to finish. The ONLY gripe is a nitpick that someone else mentioned, the ending felt a bit abrupt. You've earned a sub, and as someone who's just getting into vatsim, I'm eager to see those videos.
Thank you! And yes to be fair, i do run a marketing business as my main “job” so not exactly a newbie, but definitely not a youtuber haha. I’ll add a second or so to the next one’s ending so it finishes properly :)
Another great video. Thanks for all the hard work you put into this. I will keep following.
Thank you for the support, ill keep making these!:)
@8:32 😅haha the Australian region looks spot on realistic ! Great video btw! Szép napot!
Haha, can't take credit for it, it's just in the video from the creator of the mod :D És köszi! :)
Excellent video . Sub'd and happy that YT recommended it.
First video in a long time I've not had to put 2x speed on. Great job. Keep it up.
Thank you!
FYI the Navigraph charts will also display in sim on the G1000, G3000 and GTN in cockpit screens - perfect for VR flyers / The freeware Ski Lifts package shown in your powerlines footage is also a must have if you fly in the mountiains.
Just found this channel today. Super high quality video. Just earned a new subscriber!!
Thank you! If you'd like, feel free to join the discord, just set it up properly today :)
Keep up the good content! I did already know about and own most of these addons, but got myself a copy of the we love VFR package. I do too love flying in VR and VFR conditions ever since I got myself the HP Reverb G2. Anywho, congrats on the 1.38k subs! :D
What Toasty already said: My impression was, that I am watching some video from a much bigger channel. Very professional, good content, good job! Subscribed!
Thank you ❤️! Do feel free to join us on discord (if you’d like) :)
Bored? With MSFS?? Are you out of your mind?? 😅
Hahaha had to make a hook up. But yes, theres no reason to be bored with this epic sim
@@PYLT I thought as much. Anyhow, compared to what others do to theirs, I'm as vanilla as they come with this Sim - and still enjoy it tons. Nevertheless, I understand the spin - and for that you've won a new Sub. Congrats, and soar with the wind, mate!!!
@@kokoeteantigha389 Thank you and welcome here!
Yeah, i got boored fast.. too unrealistic planes.. so i downloaded Flybywire and fenix A320👍 and GSX, now its fun
@@ifjordking9198is GSX a must have to enjoy the sim properly?
This is awesome. Glad I found this channel!
Glad you wrote your comment, welcome here!:)
Great rundown and video✌️👍💜😊
thank you for this!! very well put together
Thank you, appreciate it!
great video bro I will be looking forward to using these addons :)
Thank you mate!:)
Excellent suggestions! Will look into it!
Thanks! Happy i could help :)
Excellent video, thanks.
MORE VR VATSIM content pls! There's not enough of it on KZhead and I'm sure it'll be VERY fun to do.
Your production quality is insane, I bet your channel will absolutely explode soon
Thank you! Kinda already did, 1000 subs in a month, but yes - lets shoot for more ;)
Great video! Thank you for this video. 👌
Thank you for engaging with it! Means a lot to me to have all of you coming here for what is essentially a hobby “only” to most of us :)
@@PYLT will try and help your engagement. You make cool videos. And the flight summing community is great!
@@Itswelshy86 It is really supportive, yes - I'm actually surprised. Happy so many of us are here! :) And thank you again, as you can see with the numbers, it does go a long way :D
Thanks for post. Will subscribe
With this effort and quality I can't not sub!
Thank you haha! :)
you got a like for showing Aus upside down.. classic! cheers from Aus.. subbed.
Hha thanks! But i cant take credit for it, that was in the original video by the creator of the mod :)
Great video man keep it up!!!
Thank you, will do! Already working on the next 2+ did 3 shorts from this one today :)
This channel is going to be on TOP recommendations with millions of views in the near future. Keep up the goood quality and hard work bro😀 Obviously you earned my subscription 🙂
Thank you mate! Vatsim guide & atr review coming soon :)
damn wish i could give you more thumbs up, just getting into modding my msfs i fly vfr so ya some of these are super cool.
bravo, super useful, many thanks
Thank you! :)
quick correction regarding emergency situations on vatsim. As a (almost) daily vatsim user myself, I can say that emergency situations are not always appreciated. While they do try to simulate realistic atc, it very much depends on the atc controller if they have the energy and time to handle emergency situations. But otherwise if they have the time and energy for it they will gladly help you back safely on the ground
Generally speaking it's good manners to ask for emergency simulation. On IVAO we do it all the time, but we ask for permission first and the controller has every right to deny permission :)
Another addon I personally would reccomend is Little Navmap, its totally free and acts as a navigational tool and a detailed editor for your flightplans.
thanks for the updates and video...ill be trying some of these.....LQQKS like fun to me...
Good video. I have many of these add-ons. As a real-world pilot I do prefer pilotedge over vatsim since mainly Fly in the western u.s. I started out on vatsim. It's free and it's very good. However pilotedge in my opinion is the next level. It is so much more like real world ATC. But it is a payware service so for some this may not be an option.
Im planning to test it as well but i fly in EU so need to learn us ATC first anyways:)
Great content thank you. Please dont be offended but one small observation - I feel there is no need to keep repeating "The only reason this addon is not higher on the list is......" Apart from that great narration and look forward to more videos! Gonna check out the addons now :D
Ey, no worries, happy for the feedback! :)
0:04 yes I am bored, ish… L&Sub… staying tuned, thanks for having me. BEER 4(Mike Whisky) over and out.
Yes!
I love how he called in 2th instead of 2nd in the chapters
Great video. What plane were you flying in the 2nd addon. Re lights. ?
Oh nice one! It's the Analgoue Bonanza 36, Black Square one :)
Thank you for video
And thank you for watching it!❤️
I really like Flow from //42 in combination with littlenavmap
Me as a Vatsim ATC controller am really glad you picked vatsim as the number one:)
Haha, yes! IVAO and VATSIM are literal daily drivers for me :)
you should've added GSX on this video, Nice video though
Yeah and some traffic injector too. But the thing is , I don't use either, so wouldnt want to include something I can't actually recommend :D
Subbed
Thank you ❤️
Thank you so much for introducing me to Powerlines and Solar Farms & We Love VFR!
I was looking into the zinertek, is there another taxiway and runway enhancement for Xbox?
Imagine paying $30 for a community addon, to add screen shake that most people turn off, when it's usually a standard option in any game that puts you in perspective of what you're controlling to begin with.
Not having airport lights by default is very odd to me.. good to see that there is an add-on that fixes this weird issue. Does this work for all default airports?
Should yes :)
Can you do a video on how you get such crisp and clear vr fottage? Whenever I try it always either laggy or low res
Hm good question. I was really wondering whether to do settings vids cuz I don't feel like I could add anything new to the convo. Honestly, I just have everything on ultra, 4090-i9-13900KF. Steam VR + Virtual Desktop with the Oculus and Steam VR + DP with the Reverb G2 I recently upgraded to :)
What version is that of KCLT at 2:11?
sneezing and toilet flush? LOL
I am bored about single add ons at all. Whats the price pay one time and have access all plugins?
Would be cool to see a subscription service for EVERYTHING but I don't think that's gonna happen :/
Great info! But… Please, refrain from editing out every natural pause in your narration (audio). Those pauses (punctuation, breathing etc.) are essential (!) for a listener to make sense of all the details - details YOU know, but we as viewers may not (why we watch, right?). Pauses are boring for the creator - but essential for understanding what you create. Don’t let that FOMO feeling overshadow your good intentions… 👍
Duly noted :)
@@PYLT 🙈👍💛💛
The sim already comes with runway centrelines.
im wondering how you got the navigraph app working like you have it done , in my screen looks flat as it is a web page, but,, how'd you do that, thank you
the i-pad
It's because it's open in VR :)
Can any of runs the VR
Let me ask you , can you get remote assistance to tweak a PC for you,, especially in games settings according to your rig,, thank you
Navigraph might be about the cost of a netflix subscription but theres the thing, a movie subscription entertains the whole family. Cancelling it to entertain myself for a couple of hours a week is just too selfish to even consider.
I seldom add free or paid stuff, outside of planes and helicopters. MSFS is moving so fast, in a future update they might update some scenery, weather or more stuff and my addons would be redundant or interfere.
Yeah makes sense. But these small scenery addons for example, theyve been oit for a while but never replaced by asobo. There are stuff that’s just not worth it imo, like the rex weather addon
Woaaa, slow dowwwwn, you don't have to win a price for the fastest topic switching and cuts. =) I can't even focus on something and you already show the next screen, record and even topic. Breath :D The content is really good but it's really hard to follow. This video is 10 minutes long, it wouldn't have been any worse if it was 12 minutes long =) Thanks for the information, didn't know about the airport lights for example :)
Thanks for the feedback! Still dialing it in, next one should be a bit more balanced :)
Since you are taking feedback, the speed was good. Didn't qaste my time and kept the pace up.
Don't forget links to the product pages!
Oh damn thats right. I’ll update the description when i get to my pc
Where can i get the powerlines, I don't know how to search 4 them in justflight.
flightsim.to/file/26186/powerlines-and-solar-farms
Were do I find andre3d's airport lights?
Hey, thanks for watching it! Just updated the description to include all links :)
whats the website that i can download these mods from? im new to this
My bad :) Usually Just Flight for the paid ones, Flightsim.to for the free ones :)
9:05 @ #1. Is this video.
Where to download them? Most of the paid ones are in FL2020 data manager itself in the shop? Or 3rd party sites that provide the software? Does 3rd party software always need to be in community or if you get an addon or I am looking for de 737-800 to buy. Does it has its own download path like thr Flybywire A32NX you install it and it installs the plane automatically in your commodity? And why are some planes soo Expensive like the PMG 737 planes you don't have all the 737's with 1 time paying but for every version thr little shorter -700 or stretched-900. Apart from a plane few meters difference why should you pay soo much for the 2 planes between the 737-8? One plane like the 737 cost you already more than a new game for the PC or next gen consoles. I still don't understand that after paying €120 what is a lot for a game they don't have even something like a 737. They have the A320, however you should expect and get a near to study level A320 and 737-800 for free. And if Flightsim was not able to build 1 properly 737 why didn't they buy the rights of distributing this plane especially for premium players because what did I exactly get more for paying double the price. A shitty 787? I absolutely expected Microsoft to release after 3 years much more planes especially Airliners because there is not much choice. If you release a 747 what is as for a beginner in 2020 very hard to fly, why don't start in a 737NG or MAX.
A bit of frustration but I understand your point. But I can't exactly agree other than yes, this is an expensive hobby. It's expensive for a game. But for a simulator - it's not. Look at hourly rates at simulator rentals. Now obviously it's not the same, but again - way cheaper still. For paywares - we are getting more and more indepth aircrafts, but none are as good as the Fenix A320 or PMDG, or Blacksquare King Air etc... but I don't have any problems with it. With MSFS, I think, You're paying for the platform and some fun aircrafts to fly around in. If you have a taste for it and know what you wanna do, you can get a way better, more specific aircraft for a not-super-high price. If I take a look at something like the King Air Blacksquare plane. For that money, I already spent more time in that aircraft than in any games of similar price. Like Hogwarts Legacy was about 40-50 hours for me and it was more expensive. So breaking down the costs, I don't think it's expensive and looking at something like DCS World - it's still pretty cheap. However, it's a game with a lot of payware, none are necessary to enjoy almost study-level flights (like the free A320). I think however they could've made a better pathway available for beginners to teach them GAs first, VFR then IFR basics, then turboprops, constandspeed vs fixed pitch, then regionals then airliners. But oh well, then the youtubers would be out of a job :)
@@PYLT I agree that FL2020 is more a platform and I put most of my hours flying IFR A320NX A330 A330NEO as airlinere. Problem you finds yourself in is that you think you do everything good but then the G/S didn't pull the plane down in the G/S when appr. Is engaged. Some complete strange way points and especially 3rd party addons don't communicatie always nice with this sim. So I am at a level that I can do certain things real good but some thing as a go around de 320 changes mode ManToga srs Go TK and won't get me back in the 10M pattern to the runway. There isn't a pattern already. Is stops on the runway. So what track does he follow? Understanding everything you must begin at the basics and if you know how to completely fly your plane you are almost at pilot level.
Make sense. Did you try the same thing in the Fenix A320? It has been working fine for me, although admittedly I'm more of a GA flyer.
@@PYLT Didn't buy the Fenix because the FBW was good enough for me. You must be on another level to see te real differences when comparing those 2 and some say the 32NX is better. I would rather invest that money in the 737 and that will cost me some time to getting familiar with it. Where stands GA for in type games in English 😇
Bored with MFSM? Try DCS!!!
Haha i will have to do so eventually i feel like
Is gtx 1660ti and 5600g smooth for msfs?😊
The second im not sure about but should be good enough for low settings. MSFS is super taxing on systems so check some benchmarks before buying. Also plane dependent. Wanna fly the Fenix A320? Or a simple, stock GA? Probably a good 20 fps difference. And the game runs on 40-100 fps on high / ultra with a 4090 so 20 fps is a huge difference. (And dlss&vr etc… lot more with the 4090 but you get the idea)
why don't you post anymore?
Had no time to create videos, I run a business as my "main job". But recently getting the inspiration to do this again, maybe with only weekly uploads, but still. I miss the community.
I always thought that it's so sad that you have to add a lot of mods in this game to actually make it what it's supposed to be from the start. Also, the amount of default aircraft that are "playable" is really disappointing.
As much as I understand you, I don't necessarily agree. The game has a good variety of aircrafts to start with, some good airliners, some good GAs, some good helis, some good military ones. It's more of a platform for simming than a game at this point and it's being developed as that too. So for that I think it's great. Also, many of these mods are free or have a sort-of good free alternative. But yeah, definitely not a one stop shop, so but I don't think it's being marketed as such. Either way, thank you for the comment and love on the video! :)
@@PYLT Definitely a lot of aircraft, but what I meant by playable was the level of realism you get for them. To be honest, haven't played with all of the aircraft in the game, but as far as I have, again, disappointing. I agree with the "platform" you were talking about. The game offers the "bare-bones" of what a flight simulator would look / be like, but is heavily reliant on community and 3rd parties.
Yes, but looking at games like Skyrim, i think its a good thing. Sure, for the money you don’t get 100-1000s of hours of enjoyment, you’d have to spend for that on paywares - but then you dont get that much from other games too. Plus it being a platform, theres a future for it and potential for longevity
What plane is that you’re flying
Bonanza A36 from Black Square :)
These adddons together cost way more than the game lmao
Wait until you see payware airplanes :d
This game is very Cpu and Gpu heavy.
Yes it is, especially in VR :D
It's a shame MSFS came with such crappy Mulitplayer..not even a Radar Scope. It's why I still play older sims with my friends
If youre on vatsim / ivao you get a TCAS and “proper” multiplayer, at least thats what we do. But yeah, would be nice if you could selfhost
Awesome. Mind how you terminate your videos. This was pretty abrupt 😅
Yes the last bit of word was cut off. However thats what the algo really likes, not me rambling on about the ending for like 2 minutes. But yeah I finished this one in a bit of a hurry :)
@@PYLT i’m going to suffer of PTSD for ages !! 😂
😂😂
would be nice to get links to the products...
Thank you for the comment Spybaz! I just updated the description, you can find it all there! :)
@@PYLT good stuff. Thanks!
For me yes I have been bored with it for months… I haven’t played since SU11. I’m bored with the fact the AI traffic is lacking/nonexistent, the horrible default ATC, the horrible live weather that never works for me… it’s just not fun to be at a major airport and I’m the only airplane there. And I have zero interest in VATSIM. Lol
Yeah but then the sim is probably not for you :) There is a solution to almost everything you wrote, part of it is VATSIM / IVAO, but if that's not something you're into there are traffic addons, weather addons, ATC addons like Pilot2ATC and more. Also the last part, that could be just your "ground aircraft density" setting :)
@@PYLT Oh I know, I was using FSLTL for awhile and even they ran into issues with their add on because of the base MSFS. Usually if I fly I use ProATC. So that clears that issue up lol.
FSRealstic is broken bad
vatsim takes so long to learn, it's not really an "addon", it's changing how you fly in (any) flight sim.
I amleary of mods messing things up; I only have payware addons at this point
Thank you for the video. Found this a bit hard to listen to due to the continous stream of words. Maybe im old fashoined but talking should be dynamic. Punctuation is there for a reason.
do you prefer ketchup or mayo?
Actually more of a mustard kinda guy
What? No AI Traffic addon?
No, because I fly on the network anyway, all the time. But again, this is just subjective so if you’d like try them out - i just never tried them, so wouldnt want to review something I no nothing about :)
FS Realistic Pro.....has not been working well for about 4 months....MSFS updates and payware planes used to work great I can not recommend this addin anymore. Plus the author has vanished. Sadly.
I don’t think most of these are on Xbox
Unfortunately most are not, hopefully they’ll be in the future!:)
Oh, you deleted my comment?
Nope, i dont delete comments :)
But its weird I cant find it either. I remember answering you just before going to be and its also not held for review too. Weird… i’ll ask youtube support. Still: i appreciate the time you took to comment - I’m super new and its nice to see people taking their time to engage :)
$45 for just taxi signs and this guy is recommending it 😂🤣😅 You don't need precise placing of taxi signs on VATSIM just use the airport charts 🤭😅
Tbf its pretty low on the list, but its something i use everyday, so yes, to me - it adds a lot
Real Taxiways EU US is JUNK! Thanks for putting taxiway signs in the middle of a runway - KLAX on Bravo C10 B B1 - How about they fix that????
You might want to talk a little slower !!!
Chłopie weź tak nie przewijaj obrazów bo się w głowie kręci
SORRY didnt catch a word of that. maybe talk S l o w e r.....
You can always change the playback speed of the video rather than expect him to conform to your abilities
Never EVER use voice compression. It comes across as total garbage and is indistinct!☹
There's minimal compression on the voice, just to even stuff out, but we'll keep that in mind next time :)
Please slow down. Your 'rapid-fire' delivery is hard to follow.
Can try a bit slower but looking at my analytics most people like it this way. Sorry if it's a bit too fast for you, I will have viudeos taht are naturally slower (like my VATSIM guide e.g.)
It's an advert
For what? Bro I had 100 subs when this video went up. Who would sponsor it? And if it was, it wouldn’t be a ranking video. And if it was, wouldnt I be putting the paid ones on top?
Man why do you speak that Fast !!! not all the people are english spoken like you and speaking that fast make you feel no much pro....sorry ,just trying to help.
Hey, no worries and thanks for the critism. It's something I'm thinking about how to balance, but the thing is most people tend to enjoy it so there's less fluff. Adding subtitles may help?
Dont buy. 2024 is coming soon
I'm sorry - but the REAL TAXI WAYS is a piece of JUNK. Signs in the middle of the taxi way????? No thank you!!! It's a ripoff in my opinion.
Thumbs down, because you talk way too fast, SLOW DOWN
You speak *waaaay* too quickly, its Annoying and very difficult to understand most of what you say, especially as you have a thick accent 🤷♂️...SLOW DOWN !!
Nothing here for XBox. Next…
Yes, I'm a PC player, wouldn't want to make videos about stuff I don't know, better stick to stuff I have experience in :) Still, I'm sure there are Xbox focused channels for you too! :)
@@PYLTYeah. They all explicitly say they are for XBox. Get the hint?
get a pc u 5 iq head
Do you breathe?
Breathing is overrated🤪
