Fenix V2 B1 Released

[btacon 1,832]

Via Aamir and the Fenix Discord:

@everyone - V1.5.1.198 is now available via the Fenix website dashboard!

In-App update will be pushed shortly 🙂

In anticipation of V2B1, a couple of recommendations for smooth sailing:

- Reset your stick's sensitivity curves to linear, that is what we've built the FM/FBW/handling around
- You can put icing back on, it should work about as well as it can in MSFS right now. No visual icing yet... yet...
- Turbulence slider down to medium based on IRL pilot feedback, hoping we can uncover some voodoo for better control on this in the future.
- Using any cockpit texture mod can and will have a negative impact on performance. Please try vanilla .196 first to see how you get on, as we've made some optimisations and changes.
- Lastly, consider taking the extra effort to do a clean install: Start Menu > Searchbar > Add/Remove Programs > find and uninstall Fenix A320. Delete any Fenix folders left in C:\Program Files and C:\Program Data, then run the new .196 installer.

EDIT:  Changelog

„Reset your stick's sensitivity curves to linear“

Everything to 0? doesn’t this depend on the joystick?

Hey guys, in anticipation of V2B1, a couple of recommendations for smooth sailing:

- Reset your stick's sensitivity curves to linear, that is what we've built the FM/FBW/handling around
- You can put icing back on, it should work about as well as it can in MSFS right now. No visual icing yet... yet...
- Turbulence slider down to medium based on IRL pilot feedback, hoping we can uncover some voodoo for better control on this in the future.
- Using any cockpit texture mod can and _will_ have a negative impact on performance. Please try vanilla .196 first to see how you get on, as we've made some optimisations and changes.
- Lastly, consider taking the extra effort to do a clean install: Start Menu > Search bar > Add/Remove Programs > find and uninstall Fenix A320. Delete any Fenix folders left in C:\Program Files and C:\Program Data, then run the new .198 installer.

Think they mentioned earlier that PAX capacity will be increased with this version. They planned to give Simbrief a new profile but not sure if that happened yet

I got a 4090 about 4 months ago, it’s been the best piece of hardware I’ve ever purchased for my sim. I can get 70fps at KJFK on the 738 and it’s so smooth.
