The speed and efficiency of the guys at Laminar is mind boggling.  Easily the most talented bunch of developers in the commercial flight sim market.  Austin sure knows how to pick them.

Indeed indeed!!!!!

One good thing is that it gets us one or two steps closer to 12.20 barring no other issue. I am looking forward to that release with all the changes that are coming.

Good times are still ahead!!!!!!!!!

Glad to see things like this on the pipeline.

I'm sticking to Release versions, tho - too many other flight sims are always in involuntary Beta 🤣

If you haven't updated to this RC build yet, you might want to hold off for a minute. A number of users over on the .org and on the XP Discord are reporting CTD issues with this build. A few people are helping out LR by running some flights with some test builds (since LR can't reliably reproduce the crash in-house). 

 

This is reported to have some crashes. Laminar are aware and looking for any reports

Well I am getting a CTD outcome with this with the Rotate MD80 - it is the data input and processing side (positional initialisation data entry) on the FMS. 3 times since this release. Does seem to be some thread processing clash!

Also generated a hung system again trying to do some alternative CPU activity via other running windows programs.

Agreed. Not very many, but hand-picked instead 😁. RW pilots, flight instructors, connections with RW aviation etc. ...

Still no mention of a fix for the wrong prop rolling bug 😒

I seriously doubt that rates any where near a sim crash. The less people report it the lower down the ladder it goes.

😒 

For my experience it has noticeable impact... Maybe for 12.2... I believe that's what someone gave as forecast...

The CTD phenomena is widely reported - wide spread of sim scenarios, model types and mode of flight. Few if any errors logged in the txt file - so unk. FMS use or autoflight running via FMS seems common. FMS and GPS (GTN720) etc.  Rest is fine. Maybe their updated instructor station bolt in has done something. Doing other things so will wait out the patch/update.

Yep been following FF 777 v2 videos and from time to time ... cadabum!!! CTD 😕

But one of the youtubers said he thought it really wasn't FF777's fault but rather some problem with core sim, but I wasn't aware it was being widely reported ... I didn't experience any (probably because xp12 is uninstalled for a few weeks already 🤣🤣🤣🤣) and as someone forecasted i've been having a great time on DCS world and Il2 instead 😁

Tried XP after many stable weeks in the other sim and, *bum*, CTD on the first flight with the Rotate MD-11. That’s why I cannot call XP my main sim, event though I really enjoy it.
