what do you care if it was missing ? it means you didn't make it in the firs rows and maybe now you will but you need to upload a fresh dxdiag.

Because the deal was that you only had to sign up once and if you didn't make it you'd automatically be considered for future alphas or betas. The site is suddenly acting like that may not be the case without any notice. The way the site is behaving is as if they no longer have a dxdiag on file and the application that you'd assume is complete isn't actually completed.

I need one of those photos with Jean Luc Picard with his hand on his forehead! Calm down Boys, the girls will be here soon enough.

I uploaded my dxdiag when the process was first open to sign up.  I updated my dxdiag because I didn't have my joystick plugged in (for TA2).  Today I checked and the dxdiag was missing, yet if I clicked on my profile it still said survey complete.  I just re-uploaded my dxdiag file again.  I think the website is having some issues.

Nice to see UK style autogen.

Interesting...Ryanbatc.  What an interesting username!

I saw that and had no idea you were a tester, congrats.

Two technical things I especially like about this update:

>> FLIGHT MODEL / GROUND HANDLING

Listed as issue. That's good. It shows that they are still improving the aircraft physics.

 

>> ... a new in-game aircraft editor will allow configuration tuning for aircraft parameters including the flight model with onscreen debug support.

😲

Now that sounds really great.

I really liked the POI markers in one of the screen shots! A great idea for those Round the World sightseeing flights a few of us have been talking about!

Look under your profile, if it gives you the option to "Opt Out" and says that your survey is "complete" (as mine does) then I think it means that you are still on the Alpha list. Well I hope so at least 😉

that is one confirmed device in an as yet unconfirmed series of xbox2020 devices.

We dont even know for sure if its the high end or the low end of xbox2020. ill probably start using actual device names after XO20.

Personally Ill want more than the announced specs of series x to consider replacing the ps4. They seem a marginal upgrade at best.

You were speaking as though you were taking about one device, that would be the Xbox Series X. 

Marginal upgrade? Is this another attempt at trolling.

What caught my eye was the promise of an in game aircraft editor. That will be great. 

Yep, pretty exciting. It's one of the selling points of X-Plane that it has an advanced aircraft editor, so MS aren't messing around

I could imagine that being able to observe parameter changes live inside the sim will greatly enhance development.

Now you are talking... that was one of the things I asked for in the "what we want" thread. 👍

Now this is confusing. On my profile (still can't log-in via Chrome by the way), I had the "Flighting Survey Status - Survey Complete" text, but clicking on Flighting Signup I would be redirected to the DxDiag upload part. After reuploading it, now I have the "Your DxDiag File Info - You can change your DxDiag file by clicking here again." text again on my profile, which wasn't there before. I wonder how long it has been like this...

I urge everyone to check on this and reupload their DxDiag file if necessary.
