  • The title should no longer freeze for a very long time when connecting / disconnecting peripherals
  • Fixed freezes happening when using the flight assistant when setting a new destination

Hope those aren't the only freezing scenarios to be fixed because mine certainly happen without those conditions.

Darn, what hoping the biggest annoyance for me in SU5 so far was among the fixes but doesn't look like it. The %'s missing from the tooltips in legacy mode, eg like throttle % or the heading degree on the AP.

The thing for me is the altimeter setting , other than the B key, there is no way to set it once you take off. Obvious that a pilot didn't design that.

Slightly off topic but does anyone know what setting removes the feature where the panning slows down if the mouse passes over a select-able switch or button? It makes panning around the cockpit jagged and unintuitive, but I dunno how to turn it off so the rate of panning stays constant no matter what my mouse is doing.

Take-offs are optional, landings are mandatory.
The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.
To make a small fortune in aviation you must start with a large fortune.

There's nothing less important than the runway behind you and the altitude above you.
It's better to be on the ground wishing you were in the air, than in the air wishing you were on the ground.

It might help selecting switches to Legacy mode under Accessability menu.

Yeah I did that, which stopped the blue glow and I also got rid of the big in your face UI text popups. The only issue left between SU4 and SU5 for me in this regard is that panning comes to a halt as the mouse passes over a switch or button.

"We have temporarily reverted the LOD selection mechanism to its previous state on PC"

Anyone know what this means ?

I second this, simple question:

Is this expected to increase or decrease frame rate?

So even the day one patch is delayed haha, when are we going to give them a little slack. Good news alround! 👏

Yep, but its pretty common really, nothing to worry about 🙂

Without trying to break the NDA, simply put, the LODS were much worse, and due to its poor reception, at the 99th hour they reverted the LOD's to the SU4 version. What we currently have in SU5 already is the reverted version

Mistakes in software development are plenty, but prompt feedback, commitment to the product and its costumers are much harder to find.

I hope it doesn't decrease the FPS to what we had before SU5. That would really make me sad.

I saw it, but didn't quite understand it. Does that mean the FPS will be the same as it is now?
