One observation. Winds aloft have no effect on the aircraft ground speed. 20knt tail wind and the GS matches the IAS. C208 FL6000.

But does it match your TAS, which is the actual value you should be comparing?

Got me. TAS is reflected.

My graphics are all messed up now. I have blurries all over the place and it seems like missing textures. Frames are way down too. WTH did this patch do?

That's a pity.  The vast majority of reports are completely opposite to this, and with your PC spec it should really fly!

Some people are reporting it settles down after a reboot.

Totally hosed. The textures load in blurry right when I get near them. It's like FSX in its day. It only downloaded a 600mb patch and then installed it. Some people are seeing 15gb? Mine did not download that much. This is all messed up now as is and runs like butt.

I accept your points, and most of the update work is excellent - the sim is excellent, but the regression on the control sensitivities panel is not good and is hard to understand, as they weren't even working on it.  Hopefully, as it is a UI issue, they can put it back quickly with a hot fix.  It is really important to have this especially due to the current over sensitivities of the aircraft to control inputs.

Edit:  On second read of your post it comes across as a bit offensive actually.  I don't often agree with RY, but on this point he is right.  Telling someone to go back to their old sim and come back in a year, when they have paid good money, had something that worked and is now broken, is out of order.  They are right to complain about this and ask for it to be it put back quickly.

Totally on point...I can understand new functionality not being 100% (not ideal) - but some of these issue should have been able to be seen with a simple sanity check of each aircraft type.   Again I don't know if it was just missed or not enough time was given for testing.   I just hope that this will be a lesson and that something will be learned process wise to make improvements.   

That being said - its not stopping my enjoyment of the product and I just hope that this will be a lesson and that something will be learned process wise to make improvements.

That's not right.  My download is now at 20.80 GiB and still going.  Not sure if you are steam or MS store, but i would reboot and restart to see if it picks up the download.  Not sure what else to suggest.

This is messed up. It seriously looks like fsx now and when I change graphics settings it makes the game turn into a slide show. My patch got messed up. I rebooted and still nothing. How do I delete the cfg files in this thing now? Is there a graphics cfg file I can delete and then recreate?

Downloading 19.24 GiB (and still going) of 15.69 Gib...  I must have one of those premium deluxe patches!  The trouble is I just don't know how much to expect.  It's 3 in the morning here and I need to go to bed! 

 

I had my patch stop at 36% of fs-base.005 file, it had dl'ed about 12gb of the 15gb. After about 20 mins of it not doing anything, paused it and restarted. Nothing again. So exited out and restarted patch DL. Was "glad" to see at least it started back on the same file it was stuck on even though it was now @ 0% of that file. Now it had 18.82gb to DL. Wait what!?! I only had about 3 gb of my patch left and now it DL'ing the whole patch again plus the 3gb left from the 1st time. 🤪 Right now it's on 11 of the 18.82gb it's DL'ing. So don't know if it really need all 18gb or may even go past that.

Literally took me 5 minutes.  Just download the xbox app and click two buttons, close, open sim lol 

Not sure which 2 buttons you mean? It udpates via the MS store not the Xbox app?

Interesting! Perhaps a surprise Asobo has been keeping under wraps? What area were you flying in that screen shot?

Bush trips are now broken also...submitted that one also.  Was halfway through the Sanatorini one and it didn't mark the arrival.  Noticed that when I backed out and got back in to it the nav log went blank.  

This build is getting stranger and stranger for me.  More stuff is actually broke now.  I've been ZenDesking like crazy.
