More info will come in the update next month Q: Will the July update include information about the A380? A: The focus will be the A350. Some work on the A350 is by relation also work on the A380, stuff like BTV, OANS etc. Not to say that they will feature in the update, but just to say that almost any update on the A350 is by proxy an update on the A380 Re: timeline they are still on track per their initial announcement, A350 is first priority on track for release before end of this year, A380 afterwards. Thanks for the update. I wonder if they're aiming to release it for both 2020 and 2024 because that would be awesome.

June 22, 20241 yr Seb is with him... 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel. Crystal Light VR.
June 22, 20241 yr Jorg just said the plan book for msfs2020 (not 24) is now filled in up until 2028 and the plans include: city updates 18 world updates 38 local legends 49 famous fliers 22 sim updates 24 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

June 22, 20241 yr Fielder, wasn't it you who said not long ago you would wait and see before you upgrade to MSFS 2024. still ? I was most impressed with their new ray traced smooth cockpit shadows and the new cirrus clouds, finally. Joerg said " the new Diamond PC12 NGX by Carenado" I think he meant Pilatus instead. new 3D trees, here seen at El Capitan, or was it El Copilote? new improved atmospheric lighting 3D trees, 3D grass that gives way as your wheels roll through it and 3D ground surface Edited June 22, 20241 yr by turbomax AMD 7800X3D, Windows 11, Gigabyte X670 AORUS Elite AX Motherboard, 64GB DDR5 G.SKILL Trident Z5 NEO RGB (AMD Expo), RTX 4090, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 2 TB PCIe 4.0, Samsung 980 PRO M.2 NVMe SSD 1 TB PCIe 4.0, 4K resolution 50" TV @60Hz, VR: Pimax Crystal Light + HP Reverb G2 @ 90 Hz, Honeycomb Bravo Throttle Quadrant, be quiet 1000W PSU, Noctua NH-U12S chromax.black air cooler. 60-130 fps. no CPU overclocking. very nice.
June 22, 20241 yr Day 1 for me now. Fabio is the guy doing the new replay. Air races in base sim (Roswell, New Mexico), lots of free stuff inibuilds and Carenado, some of the payware planes are free and improved in 2024, alligators, mustang horses, deer, cirrus clouds, new lighting systems. Seb is lead man on lots of this stuff (as we know he will retiring in the near future). An extensive flight planning tool on the map start page, very detailed. I forgot half of the other stuff just shown. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

June 22, 20241 yr Seb says the problem with clouds in 2020 is that the lighting system isn't deep enough. He showed how the new lighting system in 2024 makes the clouds look more real. The new flyby view is for the replay system only. Gaya the new partner is doing the new KJFK, KASE (aspen), and Donnegal (Ireland), ground markings in every airport. All the oil rigs in the world in the game, all heliports too, and all commercial ship traffic in the world (this is by a partner that sells the data to Asobo). 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

June 23, 20241 yr Have they said anything about performance when compared to MSFS 2020? All of that procedural stuff and ray tracing is presumably going to require significantly more power, and whilst my i5 7600k/GTX 980Ti system is doing a fantastic job with 2020, I am not certain how well it will cope with 2024.

MSFS 2024 is being released for XBox X and XBox S. Since XBox S is the weaker XBox, that's the one you want to compare your computer to. If you computer's specs are comparable or better than XBox S, MSFS 2024 will probably run on your system. This is an educated guess by me though - we don't know the actual minimum PC specs until MSFS 2024 is released. Having said that, stuff like ray tracing may not be usable by weaker computers without torpedoing the frame rate. Ray tracing will probably be an option in settings. So you can tune the settings to get the best performance for your computer. Edited June 23, 20241 yr by abrams_tank i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM
June 23, 20241 yr The ray tracing is also only for shadows, which is significantly less performance heavy than than full on raytracing light and reflections

June 23, 20241 yr I hope that the new version of EIDL Donegal has terminal interior modelling. This should (IMO) be standard for MSFS 2024.
