MS FS 2020 Update # 5 Now Available

Featured Replies

On startup I get a CTD if my Saitek Yoke and Rudder Pedals are connected. If I disconnect them, the sim opens, and then if I reconnect the yoke and pedals I get a CTD again.  Hard to understand how so many can have startup CTDs and controller issues even though this update was 'more thoroughly' tested. The Community folder was empty during the install, and I have not installed any new drivers. I'm not using a separate USB hub although the rudder pedals are plugged into the Saitek yoke. Very frustrating for all concerned, including Asobo!

I said lightning was something they didn't fix, not the lighting, I am aware they fixed (or changed) the night lighting.

I am talking lightning i.e. the electrical discharge you get in storms.

 

I am talking lightning - its raining here was asobo perfect depiction and no lightning - I understood you

Patch day... always an adventure! I guess I will roll the dice and see what happens... woohoo. Who needs the excitement of flying right!

Theres a showstopping issue with the latest patch for some users. The fact that you cant even update right now may be a blessing in a weird way

Theres a possibility MS took the server down to halt the update and inject an updated patch? (fingers crossed for all who have issues atm)

Their thought was that it was not easily reproduced.  I have never seen any inappropriate discharges of electricity either.
