I'm curious to know what exactly this means

seems like this whole release is fubar (again) according to one developer, we might be seeing b16 very very soon

“(Word most definitely not allowed)-ed up beyond all repair”

The acronym dates back to at least WWII, commonly used in the military.

I always thought it was recognition

apparently "all reason" is also an option.

anyway

most likely snafu.

These guys are trying hard I'm sure, just seems like they are the gang that can't shoot straight.

I just completed a flight from EGPH to EGLL in the IXEG 737 1.32. Beta 15.

Also running simlink and navigraph, ASPX, Traffic Global at 50% and True Earth for all England/Scotland.

Great flight. Cloud flashing much reduced. Locked FPS at 30 and maintained that on final approach into Heathrow.

I've been seeing scenery tearing (white wedges toward the horizon) since the Vulkan beta's but did not notice it on this flight.

I need to test more but I would say this beta is pretty good so far.

Crashing on load, failing to allocate GPU buffer.

B-16 should be coming out early next week with fixes for most of the things brought to light in B-15 according to Ben.  Please be patient guys.  Remember that this is beta and Laminar is letting us participate in their build programs.  I have never known any other developer to allow this.  We are being allowed to be part of the developer team.  Enjoy the ride or go back to 11.41.
