Stunning shots that make my day. Truly incredible weather dynamics and scenery. In the last gif with approaching weather, it looks like the water (sea?) is reacting to it as well. Overall, I just cannot believe something this amazing is happening to us flightsimmers now. 

A few notes:

- Look at the water effects in the river in the DampfGepard9514 shot (India). At the bank on the left, there are some weird bending effects of the water visible that look unrealistic and have noted these before.

- Rain in the sim is amazing, but I have not seen light consistent rain yet; so far only patches of heavy rain with zero visibility when going through it. 

- Snow looks great, wonder whether there are different intensities of snowfall

- Like to see more color in springflowers. 

That Gibraltar landing gif! 😵

Default scenery baby!

Yes but all the flowers have the same colors. 

JUST KIDDIN' !

Look at the river banks, how the ground blends into the water. Also what seems to be  a path left to right in the foregound. Can't wait to land my Cub to say hi to the lady farmer. 

According to Reddit, the majority of those being invited signed up for the Alpha around the September-November 2019 timeframe. However, all of them have 32GB RAM. If you meet these criteria, chances to receive an invite should be high.

Have you guys still access to "my profile" at the flight insider website? 

I would like to push my question. I am afraid something went wrong with my profile. 

 

This is all I see, when I click to "my profile" in the insider home Menü:

 

"

• GAMERTAG
• FormedFrog "my number"

• MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR INSIDER PROGRAM OPT-OUT

• No longer wish to participate in the Insider Program?    Opt-Out"

Some fascinating imagery this week. I'm struggling to convince myself to believe that what I am seeing is real. Or not real. Well, you get my meaning.

Nice, very nice indeed.

Exactly how I predicted last week. 32gb is still a requirement.

I just checked and it seems the same for me. The extra options probably disappeared because there is no recruitment process going on right now (only then is it possible to change your DxDiag file it seems).

Sadly seems like so. For those with less than 32GB RAM, probably not much reason to hope for an invite until we get patch notes that indicate some optimisation has taken place. Likely not until beta phase.

Now, isn't this nicer than some NDA-Breaking potato-Pics?

In all honesty, as a non alpha guy, I really enjoyed those potato pics.  It was nice to see some off the cuff in game shots of things we hadn't seen yet.

Who does the invite come from?  Just want to make sure to check my spam with wishful hoping I get the invite during this quarantine time we are living through.

Noone has commented on the snow flakes animated GIF yet? This looks almost too realistic to me :-).

Great to see lit up floors in office towers in the Citylights.png screenshot, however, I find the patterns there could be a bit more random, it looks a bit too 'clustered' at this stage.

Mission accomplished.  People are discussing lighting on skyscrapers in the alpha. (Just a little insider joke nothing to see here!)

Please folks dont convert this thread in another Alpha access wining..there is several threats for that already.

Furthermore Alpha is for testers not amusers just in case..

It’s not about wining. It’s about telling people not get their expectations to high. Because 16 GB users like me who signed first days, are in step 2.

So I prefer not to be waiting for an invitation during a week if the instructions says that they are not prioritizing us yet.

If I’m invited this time, much better, but looks like 32GB gang by now. 

There still should be a way to update your dxdiag when you upgrade even though there is no new recruitments.  So those who perhaps upgraded ram or gpu but doesnt reflect on filed dxdiag, get missed out.   Seems that should be looked at.  Microsoft if your listening, please allow updated dxdiag for current registered insiders.

My profile isn't exactly the same as yours, but I also noticed an "!" showing up as well. That used to be the place where you could update your dxdiag.xml file I believe. I really hope that this means something and that we will be receiving our invites.

They did have the option open a while back to update your dxdiag file, i registered the first day when registrations opened up and after that i did eventually upgrade most my system parts. I uploaded my updated dxdiag file when they had that opportunity to upload updated ones... i just hope that doesn't mean the system sees you as registering then! Because that would be a big date difference and wont get us in the pool of early registered candidates!
