Nvidia Game Filters on X-Plane 12: I followed this forum forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/292029-…

Flight requests: Please use this form www.bravo77whiskey.com/flights. You can post a comment but I prefer using the form to keep track. Please consider the descriptions on the fields.

Gameplay capture software: OBS Studio

Video editing software: Free edition of Davinci Resolve

Sim camera software: I manually create my camera presets/views. I use the default camera systems for both simulators. On X-Plane, I use A-Better-Camera plugin specifically for airports that have bad tower views.

Where am I from: Nairobi

Am I a real-world pilot: No, not even in my dreams.

Do I have any real-world aviation experience: No

Do I plan to get a pilot's license: No

Which sim do I prefer: The one that is most suitable for the flight I want to do, considering the availability and quality of the add-ons. I love MSFS2020's visuals and X-Plane's aircraft handling. I am looking forward to MSFS2024 with the hope that it has the best of both worlds.

Do I know what I'm doing: Probably not

Do I welcome feedback: Constructive feedback is welcome, but remember that my combination of flight simulation software and hardware will never match the real thing. I can only be as good as the tools I'm using. I also don't aim for full immersion or accuracy and will forego some things for convenience. My real-world profession (software development) is demanding enough for me therefore I will always use flight sims for entertainment/relaxation rather than for aviation proficiency. I'm also dumber than a truck tyre and have a few disorders that make things a little harder. That being said, many thanks go to the people who have tried to help me fly better. I may not always be able to follow the advice depending on the effort needed to apply it, but I try where possible.
