  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

White dot in middle of screen?

I somehow ended up with a white dot in the middle of the screen display after a couple of updates ago. Not always, but it appears when changing aircraft using the dropdown menu in developers mode. Does anyone else have this, and how do I remove it?
 
It's a known bug that Asobo introduced in SU12, kind of fixed, and they're saying it'll be fixed fully in SU13.

If you don't have that beta, there's a file on flightsm.to that helps get rid of it, but it doesn't work 100% of the time.

Thanks - much appreciated!
 
It seems to be performance related. The only time I ever see it is when I'm in the Honda Jet, which is a major hog unless you run one of the "Lite" liveries, but this you give up on some functionality. I think part if it might be the automatic lighting system, but who knows...
 
The dot itself is apparently intended for use with Xbox controllers, to make up for them not having a cursor.

The white box around some avionics is part of the same thing, but I don't understand why Asobo hasn't just added an option to toggle those on or off somewhere.
 
It's not supposed to be there at all on a PC unless you're running the sim with a control pad and using the modern Lock interface - I think. The next Sim Update is supposed to fix the issue.
