no clue. Their website says they're hard at work setting up a new server but I'm not sure how long ago that was updated.

It is a great airplane.  Though, I still manage to have some difficultly with ground taxing and braking.

Amazing update. 

Just did some initial tests and performance is amazing. Very close to NGX
Even with 4.5 installed ( reports of FPS issues) performance seems to be fine on my system.

 

Engine sounds are now DEAD ON..

For me the new version A320 is  harder on FPS than the previous version. 

As good as the pre-flight detail is I doubt I'll go through all that for  many flights. Sometimes you just want to fly. 🙂

I find this version on 4.4 brings a new performance boost.

After 4 flights I now have the push back time to 20 mins which is my VA min prep time.

Will it get better? Yes with the A321

The 321 with PBR frame and VC, CPDLC and god knows what other goodie they have in stock is going to be glorious.

Don't forget FS2Crew , 90% finished according to Bryan York.

The 320 seems to be harder on my system than the previous 319.  After the 319 was released I flew that exclusively because of the icing, etc.  Going back to the 320 in 2 flights was harder on the system.  In fact, I had a mere 3 fps sitting on the groud at the new LatinVFR KMSY.  Granted, the weather was overcast with storms around but I haven't had that low of frames in a very long time, even in worse condidtions.  I'll figure it out though.  The new features are awesome.

Funny, I had a similar experience with the A320 at the new LatinVFR KMSY on the 13th.  Not 3 fps, but definitely dropping way off my normal locked 30 fps.

Further troubleshooting led to a combination of issues not really related to the FSL Scarebus...first, the weather was a harder than usual hit--there were 3 broken/overcast cloud layers.  More significantly, my GPU overclock software apparently got borked after a recent Win 10 update, which resulted in setting the GPU's power target to 60% instead of 115%.  So the combination of hitting the GPU with a heavy load from the weather, and having the GPU throttling the clock back to try and stay at 60% TDP under that load made things pretty unhappy.

Re-installation of eVGA Precision X1 (the GPU software) got my 2080Ti back into the game, and now things are locked at 30 fps again in the same scenario (KMSY at 1600Z on 13 Apr 19).  I do note that my CPU loads seem higher with the post-update 'bus, but not so much that it impacts my 30fps frame rate lock.

I did my first flight since the update last night(just did the ATSU tutorial flight). And for a person that isn't usually easily impressed, the new features are excellent. The ATSU and integration with GSX will completely change the aircraft for me, its now absolutely head a shoulders above anything else on the market.

Just a question (not intended to be a FSL vs PMDG debate): But is the ATSU/AOC functions in the FSL A320 something that PMDG will have (amongst others?) once Global Flight Ops is released?

Probably, But were the 747-8 has an EFB for PERF cal. FSL Perf is done like IRL though ATSU/AOC Boeing Airbus different systems etc. It seems since FSL come along competition has pushed everyone onto a higher level.
