April 8, 20206 yr Wouldnt say it was 2 steps back it fixed a number of things rather quickly, That may be a simple fix and being common mat get fix over night.
April 9, 20206 yr Beta 2 fixed the black screen issue for me, so i finally managed to load it. Going from Opengl to Vulkan raised my fps by 10-15, which is a welcome thing. Of course this is with Vanilla Xplane so who knows yet what happens with all my addons.. Chock 1.1: "The only thing that whines louder than a jet engine is a flight simmer."
April 9, 20206 yr Actually being going reasonably well today managed a few short trial flights lets see what b3 fixes.
April 9, 20206 yr Well, I loaded b2...it kept my ground textures crisp...right up to the 7 minutes into the flight...where I heard a chime sound...and the sim froze. Fatal CTD...that was it. So, b3 is coming out today? Good! 😉 Edited April 9, 20206 yr by Sesquashtoo

None of the above on my system. Great FPS...stayed at my locked 32. No stuttering of any kind. But what happened to me..is that 7 minutes into the flight while at 3,500 at cruise. I heard a chime sound from the speakers...and the sim froze,like I'd hit pause. I didn't. Then...30 seconds later...a CTD.
April 9, 20206 yr It feels like X-Plane 10.0 all over again. Great prospects, nothing works 🙂 - here we are again, no AI traffic, no weather add-ons, ect. Edited April 9, 20206 yr by Colonel X - Currently giving X-Plane 12.10 a spin on Shadow PC. 10 years with X-Plane now, since 10.20

April 9, 20206 yr The problem might not necessarily be all the sims fault. I am having none of the reported issues, but I also notice the sim is happily using almost 19 gigs of ram......... And 10 gigs of video ram. Edited April 9, 20206 yr by HiFlyer We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

I was checking out Luna's videos as well as his specs and he seemed to have no problem running vulkan. I'm hoping that I don't have to upgrade anything. I might add 16 gig of system ram if I can find two identical chips. MSFS

I'm not an alpha tester, but I wonder if MSFS (whose previews appear to look better than XP) uses such huge amounts of RAM and especially VRAM.

With all due respect to your posts, Colonel, but it's a beta ... and the first public beta at that. Add on developers will provide their new version at the end of the beta run. Any fix is a moving target now, for developers it is not a good time to update, unless it is confirmed that there will be no changes. You are free to stay with the stable 11.41, everything continues to work as is there.
