Audio for VATSIM

Posted on May 31, 2019 by admin

Unless you either have no clue what VATSIM is, don’t use VATSIM or have been hiding under a rock for nearly two decades, you know the audio codec which VATSIM has been using is truly the weakest link of the entire VATSIM system.  While I absolutely love flying on the VATSIM network, in recent months…

New REX Environment Force

Posted on May 30, 2019 by admin

As most will already know, the new REX Environment Force add-on was released a few weeks ago.  Over the course of this article I’m going to share some opinions, show some evidence and basically discuss how I moved from the Envtex/Envshade products to REX and what my overall impressions are.  Spoiler:  I’m happy as a…

Return of the Flight Sim Storyteller

Posted on May 27, 2019 by admin

Once upon a time, a few of us flight sim bloggers were into storytelling through our writings and images. This was really before the YouTube thing took off.  A few years in, I took the turn down the path of Twitch and YouTube and mostly used the blog for “how to” type articles.  Essentially I…

Flight Simulation–The Struggle for Balance

Posted on May 22, 2019 by admin

While I’ll be the absolute first to tell you that Prepar3D, Flight Simulator X (FSX) and X-Plane are NOT video games…they are computer based flight simulators!  It certainly didn’t start out this way.  As I often show my age when I speak about the fact that I’ve been flying computer based simulations since the early…

Political Division–No Place in our Hobby

Posted on May 17, 2019 by admin

I participate in two different hobbies which in the past have always promoted good will towards mankind.  The first is amateur radio (ham radio) which brings likeminded radio/electronics enthusiasts from around the world where we find each other on the airwaves and use our common interests to bridge the issues that divide us.  In this…

A Gamer’s Healthy Life

Posted on May 8, 2019 by admin

I began working on this article to publish on my GrizzlyBearSims gaming blog over two months ago.  I also talked about my weight loss and exercise journey on one of my last YouTube Videos before my break.  As I had over 90% of the article written, I didn’t want it to go to waste so…

ProMods coming to ATS

Posted on May 6, 2019 by admin

I’ve been a BIG fan of the ProMods development team for many years.  Around the time SCS was releasing American Truck Simulator, there was some discussion in the ProMods forums about the possibility of some ATS development work.  But that was over three years ago and I personally hadn’t heard a peep from them regarding…
