All I hope for is two things, 1) Autogen loading fix 2) improved performance with dynamic lighting, so I can run SGSS. 

Rob has said the update is for the simmer this time.  Let's see.

There was a post here just a week or so ago where he hinted that a user here shouldn't look to go doing a fresh install quite yet as something may be around the corner.  Not sure if that was a hint to 4.2, or just another update to 4.1

This sounds encouraging. I hope there are some good improvements for the simmer that make a noticeable difference.

Any other detective work out there? Would rather this topic go the route of signs, clues or insider information that it might be coming then a complaint log.

I would think they have to be pushing for end of February to get it out.

I have always thought that everything was for the simmer ...

For the Simmer ?  :cool:

Let me guess... 

.) New Helicopter Flight Dynamics, based on the extensive experience from the in-house knowledge ( it's LM after all behind this sim, and it's a Professional toy ! )

.) Finally fixed reciprocating prop model, such that now leaning gives FF reduction, not initially an increase, above 3000'

.) New turboprop ( free-running at least ) modelling ( it's LM after all behind this sim, and it's a Professional toy ! )

.) Updated World navaids and airport database, including slopped runways ! Heck, even that FSW game did it ( less the sloped runways... present just in games like AEFS and X-Plane ) !

.) TrueSky-like skies graphics...

Is that ( part of ) it ?

I only hope they will not release another couple of more Simdirector features plus a modification of raindrop color in Early Spring but address the acknowledged issues reported on their forum (like autogen loading in patches and late under several situations, blurry photoscenery) for months now.

Kind regards, Michael

Absolutely Michael. I don't want to see a list of little tweaks, I want to have this awful texture loading sorted once and for all!

three things i want to be fixed:

* Autogen loading

* Mesh popping

* Dynamic lighting performance 

That's all i want.

Precisely! These are 3 things that by spoiling the view or by introducing stutters result in immersion being lost. Improving what we have already is what I expect from a minor revision such as ver. 4.2.

Other improvements such as sloping runways, new ATC engine or a new lighting model are major changes that should be kept for a major revision, e.g. ver. 5.

AMD Ryzen 5800X3D; MSI RTX 3080 Ti ; 32GB Corsair 3200 MHz; ASUS VG35VQ 35" (3440 x 1440)
Fulcrum One yoke; Thrustmaster TCA Captain Pack Airbus edition; MFG Crosswind rudder pedals; miniCockpit FCU; CPFlight MCP 737; Logitech FIP x3; TrackIR

MSFS; Fenix A320; A2A PA-24; HPG H145; PMDG 737-600; AIG; RealTraffic; PSXTraffic; FSiPanel; REX AccuSeason Adv; FSDT GSX Pro; FS2Crew RAAS Pro; FS-ATC Chatter

My bet still stands 50 quid or dollars that they don't do the lighting.

I think a new thread should be started on when is the 4.3 update coming.

I would add that nasty lighting bug that goes from darkness to bright day when you change the view angle.

The big one for me is the fix to the number of active add-on packages causing missing textures.  It’s frustrating to finally be free of OOMs only to find that I still need to deactivate packages to avoid this new issue.  I think it was mentioned somewhere this would be fixed in 4.2.
