No problem here. It did have me update the G3X Avionics Plugin.

So we need to install a G3X plugin from the content manager? Thought the new G3X was the default one now and we didn't need to install anything. 

no way , i was on 23% of update download and switched to 6% and re-downloads again... exactly the same as in some previous SU ... probably  tomorrow finish the 14.51 GB of it

A320NEO V2 Unwanted Liveries

Not a fan of the MS fictional liveries (e.g. XBox Aviators, Aviators, Global, Pacifica, Orbit, etc.)

Does anyone know an easy way to completely remove these unwanted liveries? 

In the OneStore folder (inside Official), find "microsoft-aircraft-a320neo" > SimObjects > Airplanes > microsoft-aircraft-a320neo and delete the models and textures you don't want. All the ones you listed will be 12 folders, 101mb. There's no 'aircraft.cfg' file to be edited.

 

Edit: For the new 'Enhanced' A320, the path is "microsoft-aircraft-a320neo-enhanced" > SimObjects > Airplanes > microsoft-aircraft-a320neo

It is still a simulation I see. Not free of any problems.

SU15 has completely screwed up my installation.  Been using MSFS for over 2 years and know my way around it very well.  Had been on the SU15 Beta for perhaps at least 6 weeks or more.

Started the sim this evening, and as expected knew it would not update as I had the latest beta build.  Installed all the updates in Content Manager and all seemed fine.  No time to fly tonight but loaded up PMDG 737 and weirdly the cockpit was completely dead.   No switches or dials worked, displays all black and yoke turned 90 degrees.  Restarted sim...same problem.  Rebooted pc and same again.

Loaded up xbox insider app and removed myself from the beta preview.  Restarted the sim and all hell broke loose. First it got stuck in a look downloading a 2.1gb 'update', it then tried syncing with the cloud then redownloaded the same 2.1gb update.  Settings have been changed back to default as its asking me stuff about narration etc.  I also see from opening the Usercfg.opt file loads of entries are back to default. If I continue with MSFS options screens it then tries to install entire sim again.  I quit the installer and manually edited the cfg file to the install path the sim was installed.  Starting sim again still loops with that 2.1gb 'update' then reverts to thinking it wishes to install in the default Users folder.  I have never had any issues before with updates and fearing a full install maybe needed.  I dont want to loose all my controller settings and more importantly my flight log 😞

UPDATE: MSFS has completely and utterly wiped my existing Official One Store folder on my D:/ drive, its now empty

just like the real world that it simulates.

"As real as it gets".

🤣

Working very well for me. Download and install was totally swift and trouble free, pretty much max xfr rate over my Gbit connection and no interruptions. I've been sitting here with a flight running (A340 north of out Dallas on AP) for a couple of hours now and it is unbelievably smooth. Not a single stutter for me whereas it had been a complete pain for weeks before. 4k, DX12, HDR, ultra plus and smooth as silk. This may finally have become the sim I hoped it would be.

(as long as it doesn't flake out on me and wipe all my settings again, as it did yesterday <grin>)

It wanted to do the same for me (I also had left the beta before) and I noticed that it wanted to install the sim in the default drive. I simply clicked on the path and changed it back to were my sim actually is. Problem solved. However it still redownloaded a bunch of stuff that I had purposefully deleted beforehand so I had to go to all the installed stuff in the content manager again and delete what I didn't want. Must have deleted some good 25Gigs of stuff.

I thought that if you were on beta you were current.  You dont need to install MSFS.

sp

I'm in the beta so no there was no pause nor update files at checking for updates. But there were 13 new things in content manager "update available" (16 GB). Yesterday there was 0 new things there. Plus the Airbus A320NEO Enhanced in the Marketplace.

I;m getting horrible UI stuttering when zooming in/out of the World Map since I restarted with DX12, anyone else getting this? didn't happen with DX11.

I also am getting stuttering in the map view when zooming (with mouse wheel). I was flying most every day and was in the beta. This did not happen even once. My update today was 0 because the latest beta is the same as the release.

Therefore the map stuttering is because of the new content in the content manager (world updates?) and not due to the SU15 update. Because the map never stuttered for me all through the beta releases, including the beta from 2 days ago.

The "stuttering" is like a 10 second pause for me sometimes. This only happens in the map view page.

 

Update worked nicely for me. First I updated xbox app and xbox authentication provider in MS appstore. Then downloaded MSFS update via Xbox app, launched MSFS. By the way update speed was pretty good unlike previous update. After MSFS fire up menu screen there were about 10+ updates in content manager. So updated all of them. Finally in market place I downloaded FREE ini airbus.

Quick impressions:

- no noticeable loss of increase of fps 

- 42 sim FX is now in full glory

- splash screen is the same LOL But Dune 2 just dropped on HBO - time to rewatch LOL

The pauses in map zoom was happening for me while stuff in the content manager (world updates) was downloading and installing. I think that is the problem. The world updates are doing stuff to files that the map is reading.

EDIT: Yep, now that the new content has downloaded (world updates) the map zoom is back to normal.
