Is the beta stable enough to fly without any addons? Or does even then the sim crash? 

I haven't removed any of my addons and so far most are working fine. Only crashes I've had (so far) are with AIG/FSLTL models and the Fenix. But as long as I don't load any of their art assets the sim won't crash.

Next thing for Asobo is detailed biomes with correct species at correct places 🙂

It's probably next to impossible to do 1:1. I imagine the best they can do is find the ranges/heatmaps of where species belong.

Are people getting CTDs without the Fenix installed? I had some CTDs yesterday with, and without, it installed. However the scenery I was using was an older .to one and I had some Fenix liveries installed as well.

So, I am curious if I ran into more of an "outdated community folder" issue.

I did for the first couple times... then renamed my community to .BAK and created a new one...

Had an event free flight with default airbus... Fenix CTD (but ONLY if i tried to use a livery instead of default livery, this is due to the textures etc)

Started to introduce various addons to see if they CTD the sim... MiniCockpit works fine on default and Fenix; Bijans trees etc works fine, couple of addon airports work as well..

Started another flight yesterday, 5 minutes from landing, and had a CTD..sound went wonky then froze then CTD... turns out it was the blasted AutoFPS app! Grrrrrr

So until that's updated i wouldn't use that...

more added info

First time in a long time I've opted out of a beta. I can't get into a flight without a CTD, and I'm not in the mood to deal with this for the next few weeks.

That said, during the time I spent testing, I did notice an uptick in performance and reduced VRAM usage, so at least the team is heading in the right direction.

 

If you're getting crashes try testing with an empty community folder, it could be an addon issue.

Also try clearing your streamed assets folder

Where is the streamed assets folder? I have the MS store version.

Thank you!

I didn't notice any changes in the graphics, scenery. Performance is better in the BETA however. And hundreds of little fixes here and there. But if the GPU gets a heavy load, CTD's may happen that would not happen in the non BETA.

The same location as your community and official folders

If I had to choose to fly this BETA forever or the non BETA forever, with no further changes, I would pick the BETA version to use.

Thanks for your reply!

I am using the beta with add-ons I normally use without issue - FSLTL, ATC Chatter, ATA Comanche, Honda Jet and others.  Performance is better than non beta and I just remembered I probably need to re-enable the latest DLSS4 model (so performance should get even better).

default or Ini?

BTW for the record, landed the 320 just fine and then CTDed when parking at the ramp... must be something fishy with the SU2 beta as we all realized by now 😉

Default Gaya, it's a stuttering mess. Nothing in community folder and default 737 -Max, still the same results, as with the fenix.

I went looking for ideas on how to fix the CTDs i am having in SU2, and on the official forums lots of posts confirming CTDs, but no real help other than make sure your community folder is empty. A few Youtubers i follow also reported CTDs, which got me thinking.

The number of people getting CTDs is widespread. How was the QA team at Asobo/MS not seeing these? What XB do they have not to see the unplayable state SU2 is in on the console? Because clearly they would not have released SU2 had they witnessed these things. The xbox issues are particularly curious to me. It is the same hardware and software. How are they not seeing these issues?

Numerous CTDs, freezes, here. This happens using default assets or not. Interesting i've had none while using missions.

 

This beta version is terrible. I'd call it pre-Alpha.

SU2 works perfectly fine with only BATC (exp.) and Simbrief EFB plugin (latest version). It has some great new features. Loving it already. Seems in my case only AIG (models only) results in CTD's. Only tested with AIG once though. Been using BATC without traffic for now. Might even prefer that btw lol
