I do enjoy these 30 min shifts series adds a bit of difference to whats out there so hope to see more.
I have Burbank on the list as I'm just going through the career airports atm.
Never thought to use basically all the F keys for cameras. Nice video and some nice little tips as well.
Thank you so much. So glad the video was benificial!
Thanks so much for sharing this with the community. Much appreciated. Might be a dumb question but how do you get METAR information to populate on the display. All I get is ATIS: Bravo etc. Appreciate your help here thank you!
Not a dumb question. Is your question how to get it to populate because you only see 000 ? On the display
@@realgenxgamer Thanks. It is just blank. Do I have to switch it on somewhere. Are you using weather and visuals DLC? Maybe that is it.
Looking fwd to following this series. What are the ingame settings you have setup for graphics etc?
More of these please!
I have just purchased the game what buttons do I use to set my own camera angles please.
Use AWSD to move around. Hold left shift while pressing one of those to move faster. Press CTRL + F1 thru F11 to save your camera. Just don't forget that your inside tower views for your screens are typically F1-F5 so you may not want to use those.
Great tutorial, had a quick question - Is there a way to set a controller key as the Dispatch Key?
Come back to youtube
Could you please adjust your sounds?! The game voice is much louder than yours ❤️
Absolutely, I will work on it. Every time, I update OBS it messes up my settings. Thanks for mentioning it.
Why is the a red blinking light on the vertical stabilizer?
His vid
Bro why no one liked😢
I do love KBUR when I need a nice relaxing afternoon controlling. I enjoy using 08 for the arrivals, and 15 for the departure. A bit of cross runway action to add some interest to the session.
What headset do you use for good voice recognition with the simulator ? Is there one headset better than others that you recommend ? Thank you.
I actually use a microphone and a boom. The ATR2100 mic . I do have an ESKA headset but I have never used the headset mic. So, I'm probably not much help when it comes to headset mics.
@@realgenxgamer oh no it doesn’t have to be headset mics just whatever works best for the simulator because I’ve heard others having voice recognition issues with headset mics, so I was wondering if a microphone or headset mic would be better for the simulator. Thanks for your reply and great video by the way!!
@@antonioportelli1002 I have always had good luck with ATR mics. They are affordable and voice rec seems to be on point with them. Plus with some tweaking they sound good when recording too.. I have always thought that stand alone mics were the way to go although I know tech has come a long way with headset mics now too. VR has been good with this one. Thanks for the kind words and for watching!
want to do co-op sometime?
Sure, that would be fun. Just a matter of me finding a spot in my crazy schedule.
Well that's terrifying. I guess that's what literal zero visibility looks like.
Yeah right, It was pitch black for sure. Would have been more to see if I did it during the day. At least I didn't crash the thing. Thanks for watching!
Nice sim!! Hey in Career mode at Raleigh the departing Fronteirs do not respond. This would be the first Raleigh challenge. Do you have the same problem?
You know, I actually have never played Career mode. So I don't know (however it wouldn't surprise me. But when I do I will let ya know. Thanks for watching!
Seagulls
All day, everyday!
Awesome commentary!
So glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for watching the whole video 😆
Nicely done. I hope the 'new arrivals' in particular benefit from these shorter, super specific Tutorial format videos. I do have a question (as always). At 3m26s you say "we need them facing in a southerly direction - in the direction of 22L - to go down Taxiway Kilo to 4R". I'm not getting this. Did you mean to say "in the direction of 4R"? The pushback they execute doesn't leave them heading in the direction of 22L, so far as I can tell. In the scenario after this one you have them facing North to make their way to 22L.
What I was meaning to get a crossed and maybe didn't say it well. I was meaning that it would be in the same direction as if you were on 22L. 🤣
Can I ask you a question. In the settings what are your levels for sound. My sound of the planes is very low or disappears after awhile.
@@kreggsmith2505 When I get back in my office I will check and let ya know. I do know sometimes plane sounds randomly disappear on some aircraft. I'll let ya know what they are when I get in.

@@realgenxgamer ok. I’ll try that. Thanks.
How do you know that runway 4R is facing north? Where does it tell you on this screen or do you have to refer to the radar screen?
Great question. There is no reference on any of the screens. I basically go by compass headings. 360/0 being north, 90 being east, 180 being south and 270 being west. So I know that 4R is a heading of 40 which is departing North / East (more north than east) . Another example would be if there is a runway 27, it would be at a heading of roughly 270, which would be a west departure. Hope that makes sense.
@@realgenxgamer I wondered why the runways had ‘random’ numbers. That’s two answers in one. Thanks. I have Sim3 and I love it.
In addition to realgenxgamer's answer, CGP Grey has a great video on runway numbering. But, yeah... the 4 means it faces (approximately) direction 040, which is north(ish).
Excellent video. You are really getting good at production. Interesting series.
Thanks for watching Bill. I figure I would give it a shot!
How did you download and set up the custom rosters?
@41:38 and onward ... 🤣 "Controller experiencing an aberration. Similar to hypoxia, but more like inner comedy coming to the surface." The De-Brief ~ " I really tried to stay focused in the midst of my own chaos. However, I chose to ride that wave. " - Gen X Gamer circa 2024
Inner Comedy for sure. Sometimes all you can do is laugh..... While in a state of hypoxia😂
While watching this and seeing some issues already addressed in the comments, I had a "pipe dream" and wondered if this simulation could simulate a percentage of "bird strikes", aborted take-offs, mechanical failures, etc. Have an 'Arcade Style' Chaos missions section. 😂
@@stewiepid4385 That would be 😂😆😂.... Arcade Style Chaos... It would be nice to have a very rare failure happen once in a while to deal with in the sim though.
Life saver Godblessyou brother onelovemuchlove believe 🙏
That turboprop looks so beautiful
Agreed!
Why does this look like a Fedex passenger airliner?
Your correct. They must not have made a cargo one in the sim. Just used a passenger model and reskinned it with Fedex
My radio is now not working what should I do
@0:28 Hey now! That "Hoopty" is getting you from point A to B. Needs a Rubber Chicken mounted somewhere on it. Just can't decide where ... I did not know you were showcasing this game. I turned my notifications on. Good stuff.
Glad you enjoyed it! Deep down I love the "Hoopty" even though I rag on it all the time. LOL
Does it really pick up the "Good Day" for you? I always try and use it and end up having to resay the command
No it doesn't. Sometimes I just RP it. It use to let you say additional stuff in Tower!3D Pro without it messing up but in this new version it doesn't. Sometimes if I say it fast enough I can get away with it. Or I release the talk button and say it. Just for Role Play purposes when I feel like saying it.
You may have cleared Blue Streak to land, but didn't listen to his reply. Probably didn't understand the command. Your tag was red when you said Blue Streak was on short final. If they are cleared to do something i.e... Take off or Land, their tag turns green. They will be the only thing on your screen that is green. If you have a plane approaching the runway with a red tag, the AI thinks it hasn't been cleared.
You are exactly correct! Thank you, that was my bad! 😜
100% correct!
Hello! Michigan resident here. Irl, KDTW rarely ever uses 4L/R. Then will mostly use the North/South runways for departures and arrivals
Thanks for watching and the comment. I wasn't aware of this. Every time I have driven down there plane spotting they were using 3L/R and 4L/R. I didn't realize they primarily use N/S. So I just kinda defaulted to it unless wind is an issue. Appreciate the comment.
@@realgenxgamer no worries! I live only a few miles away from the airport so they’re always flying over my house whether it’s north flow or south flow lol
How come your ADIRS Map looks different from the one I have in the game that's super dardk and hard to see?
I went in and modded the color settings. I changed the colors about 3 or 4 episodes ago. These colors help me see it better for sure. Maybe at some point when I have time I will do a video on it. It would have to be done on every airport.
@@realgenxgamer yeah the higher contrast would be really helpful
Where can you find the name of the type of plane each is, this game screams for a tool tip. I like playing without the tags but I'm always fighting the camera, it frustrates me.
If I understand what you are asking. There should be a name tag on the center of the strip when you are controlling. For Example Delta 1433 (Delta | A321) Look at 2:42 in this video. Second red strip down. Again, if I am understanding what you are asking. 🙂
This is a LOT like how vatsim controllers work. This game would be great practice for folks wanting to get into controlling on vatsim.
Very true, thanks for watching!
this game is a lot better than previous iterations
@@michaelfries1443 Yes, I never thought it would be this good coming from Tower!3d Pro.
@@realgenxgamer I just bought it and MAAAYBE LAX at 100% wasn't the best idea straightaway
@@michaelfries1443LOL! Nothing like getting your feet really wet right away! 😜
This video featuring the newest upgrade was the motivation I needed to purchase this and walk away from FeelThere Tower 3D Pro. I have been following your KDTW series and taking a LOT of notes. Going to try some of your 'mods' too. @21:40 "Sky West should stop ..." As I watched, I thought it was not going to stop!
That is awesome! I think it is still on sale today. You will definitely enjoy it. Thanks for watching as always and yeah he looked like he was going to taxi through that runway and I knew I had not instructed him to do so. 🤣😂🤣
Such a fun sim. Great upgrades to it. Enjoying this
So glad you are enjoying it. It is a fun simto play. It helps keep the mind sharp. LOL! Thanks for watching.
The graphics oh my lord
Right! Thanks for watching 🙂
Where did you get this simulator?
www.atcprosim.com/ This simulator is no longer supported and no other airports will be added. It is my understanding one of the main developers became I'll. So if you buy it just understand there will be no updates or anything. Thanks for watching and for the question!
I was skimming this hoping for a walk thru on modding ADIRS 😇. Had to smile at the UAL 1957 / DAL 492 flustercluck. If that's a conflict then there's not much that isn't.
The good ole conflict that wasn't.... Maybe at some point I could do a tutorial on how to mod the ADIRS in the future. It would take a little time to put together.
@@realgenxgamer I got to Digging into the Discord later last night. It's complicated enough, but not insurmountable. I managed to get the background color to look like yours. Decided to hold off any further ambitions for a bit. I imagine a tutorial would be well received.
Could you please refresh my memory on which setting in Camera Look at Plane Mode you were using for this vid. Congrats on the new system. I am guessing that anything you could provide in the way of overviews for the Video settings in particular would be appreciated by a lot of viewers. BTW - in addition to expanding the horizon lines for at least some of the facilities I've opened since upgrade, there are some where the max. Shift+E gives a 'way up high in the sky view'. Try it at VRMM, but go for a sunny day. Hard to believe it rains in Paradise.
Sure, here are my settings for the camera... Look at the Airplane Key - Right Alt (I use this one because I use Right Shift for Push to Talk) This keeps them close and I can use my left hand on those (middle finger on R-shift and pinky on R-alt) while using the other hand for the mouse. Camera look at airplane mode - On/Off Smoothness - 0.10 Sensitivity - 1.00 Speed - 1.00 Camera FOV - Keep I know it is more than what you were asking for. Consider it a bonus. LOL 🤪
@@realgenxgamer Hey I'll take all the bonuses you can send our way. Where you lead, we will follow. You could add a little commentary on these guys if you did a Video Settings tutorial. Hint, hint.
I had to smile at your 1610 hrs 'timed' departure on your strip. That's been around for eons. The catch is that it only shows if you have your Game Setting for Runway Separation set to Time Based. I 'grew up' on Time Based, and then somehow switched to Distance Based, lost the time displaying on Departure strips and was none too happy til I got help getting it back. Check it out but I suspect you have been playing Distance Based. FWIW I found Time Based really helpful at OMDB where mixing J's and H's left me getting conflict notices without Time.
So much to say. Update - jaw dropping. Entirely. Re. Data Tags on/off - for those new to the game, a quality of life essential. The more one plays, the less one needs them. That said - I can easily see their benefit when cutting teeth on a new, large facility, just to answer questions of 'what is where'? Their drawback - clutter. Thank goodness they had the presence of mind to have an on/off toggle, and to make it immediately available. So for your work, run with it both ways - on for a bit to make a point, then off for a bit as you wish.
Yeah, loving the update. Thanks for the input on the tags... I will take that into consideration
I just loaded this sim and for the start the data tags are good for the beginner (especially cause I am non English guy). Two things I am missing are more shortcut choices and the sim remembering multimonitor settings.
Thanks for the comment. Remembering mulitmonitor settings would be a nice thing to have!
FINALLY
Thanks for the video, just set it up as you said and work perfectly, even the second monitor. A shame it doesn't save the settings though, but still makes the game much more enjoyable
So glad it was helpful. I am with you on the save settings part! Thanks for watching
