I am still puzzled that they have these hiccups. Anyway, good FPS improvement in the A310 for me, and much smoother. Now at similar level as the Fenix or even slightly better in terms of perfo. 

Well, another official fake update thread. Please specify it's a beta in the title.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE would posters include BETA in the subject line whenever they post a "Sim Update" topic when it applies only to beta versions!

It's a bit confusing though, and probably unprecedented, to have a beta after a final release. But having said that I'm very happy they decided to do it this way. I'm not even going to whine about no AI traffic changes, as I'm too hooked on the A310 right now 🙂

When am I ever going to find the time to try gliders and helicopters?

Nice, maybe I will be finally able to use this aircraft.

Update already available for Steam users too.

hurry, the WorkingTitle AAU1 beta will be here next month. That will be the first time I am seriously considering the Citation Longitude as an alternative for long haul, intercontinental flights. for some light reading, they have already uploaded the 140 pages systems manual so we can make ourselves comfortable:

"This will be the first of several Aircraft and Avionics Updates (AAUs) for MSFS over the course of 2023, so there's even more to look forward to down the road! We're incredibly excited to be improving these parts of the simulations along with our teammates and friends at Microsoft and Asobo.

AAU1 will be releasing in January, with opt-in public beta flighting to begin before the end of this year. This will work just like all the other Sim Update beta test flights, and will be delivered via the normal sim update system. "

IMPORTANT: From SU11 onwards, we added some restriction on allowed files in an Asset Group of type SimObject (aircraft), see here 5 for more info on what files are allowed or not.

Please note that despite what the doc is saying you don’t have to manually edit the definition files to reference extra files that you want to put in your simobject asset groups (the doc will be updated for official release).

• (Systems) Fixed ASSISTANCE_ITEM_AIR_MASS_FLOW_MODE insertion in AssistanceItemID SimProps enum

Can someone please tell me how to get the beta and how to know if I have it.  Thanks.

This is getting really crazy, every few days ANOTHER UPDATE is posted, and it only applies to a few people.

Had no idea it applies to the beta version only when I posted.

Just started the sim and now I'm getting another update. No idea if this is beta or for everyone.

Updated title to add beta

Can anyone who's been seeing the performance issues with the A310 comment on whether this update improves things ?
