Ok so when I try to launch the sim I get a message that there is a mandatory update. It sends me to the MS store. In the MS store, in my library, when I click ms flightsim,  there is no update. I've restarted my pc, but still nothing.

Another joke of a hotfix that can't manage to fix basic broken jetways and missing terminal walls and roofs....

It Is not mentioned in the changelog so is not meant to be fixed in this HF.

Terrain from above - much better

Trees and building shimmering - same as before

Clouds overexposure - Fixed

Haze - still there. look the same to me.

Panning redraw - same as before

These are just MY experience.

Clouds overexposure - same, for me

Better than SU4 (sorry I don't have access to my PC for this weekend)?

Just make sure that your LOD sliders are not on 100 after SU5... move them to 200 for an equivalent look.

The performance improvement in SU5 is undeniable though.. looks pretty good, performs great, and feels solid right now.

Getting approximately 5 to 7% worse performance with this hotfix. Running @ 4k with 3080 and a 5900x.

- clouds overexposure fixed 

- lod is a bit better at high altitude

Couldn't care less about that. I want the constant CTDs to be fixed, then I can worry about roofs on jetways.
