To be fair and play devil's advocate (because I do like stirring the pot and then walking out of the room) the whole premise was that the #2 issue with the release #1 being the servers was that it was rushed out the door with too many bugs so we can't now criticize them for delaying a release to get it right.  The flip side would be to release an SU that requires a maintenance release because it was rushed out in which case they would be criticized for not taking more time...

I know people don't like when developers are ambiguous about release dates but on the flip side (again to play devil's advocate) maybe just maybe Asobo should become a bit more ambiguous because they don't seem to be doing well in either case when it comes to release dates LOL 

I never criticised them for delaying the update, I was being facetious about the walking speed 😉

I would rather they walk and get to the right destination than pull a hamstring running and never get to the finish line like the original release 😂

 

I think they've addressed this in their podcast. But never release a piece of software without more especially as complex as this is. The proviso should have been Alpha build! It was deceptive to release this half baked product without more. There's two developers which for me have salvaged this software - Fenix and Just Flight with their RJ series for 2024. I fly almost exclusively commercial planes. Rarely GA. If it weren't for these two developers I would have written off this software  as one of the worst releases ever and come back to it in 6 months.

Add FBW. Just today deleted my 2020 installation. Don‘t regret it.

I am still having Major memory issues on medium to long hall flights. Starts stuttering horribly. Yes goofing around in the duke or fs500 it seems ok I just have to put on sunglasses at night because the Globe runway lighting but I like aspects of 2024. Just no for commercial flights.

The issue on my end remains the same, FPS cut half when getting out from helicopter cockpit after a solid 50fps during flight. It never goes back until I restart the sim. It also happens when changing aircraft without restarting the sim. In 2020, I got solid 48-52fps in all phases and conditions.

Started the sim yesterday and was getting awful stuttering. Checked the frames and it was around 30-40. Restarted the sim and stuttering had mostly gone, just the usual left, and checked frames and it was back up to 100+. So must be some issue within the beta.

Yes,

I'm experimenting something like that. Fps drop and rise randomly!

I only have this behaviour when VRAM maxed out. After that it's not possible to return to stable fps, even when settings are lowered by a lot. So I have to monitor VRAM usage on my meager 8GB GPU. If it goes near 7.8 GB or so, I immediately lower TLOD. Especially in career mode (and of course with FG activated) this can happen quite easily. 12 or even 16GB are not necessarily safe of getting entirely used up.

This behavior most likely is a bug. A bug that can luckily be avoided but is still quite annoying. 

VRAM issues are being addressed for SU2

Yeah I have a 3090, never any VRAM issues and never experienced the problems referenced here.  Can't comment on DX11/12 differences because I've always run in DX12 both 2020 and 2024

After carefully reviewing Sim Update 1 Beta feedback to ensure the best possible experience for all simmers, we have decided to take a bit more time before its release. While it won’t launch on February 18th, we appreciate your patience and look forward to sharing another update in next Thursday’s Development Blog.

Gotta make sure that walking speed is just right, good job Asobo!

This will definitely take a year plus to get fixed. A long road ahead unfortunately. 

Can’t be vram for me I’m running a 4090.

Have you checked? If you max everything out filling up 24GB on larger airports are absolutely possible. I have seen YouTube videos where people used 22 GB in flight over London or New York.

This is happening over EGNT in the Cessna 172…
