May 1, 20251 yr RELEASE NOTES Sim Update 2 - Beta - 1.4.18.0 If you are playing on PC, outdated packages in your community folder may have an unexpected impact on the title’s performance and behavior. If you suffer from stability issues or long loading times, move your community package(s) to another folder before relaunching the title. Changes to Career/Challenge League/Multiplayer in the Sim Update 2 Beta Beginning with the Sim Update 2 Beta, Career and Challenge League will have separate progress and leaderboards from the live build, and Multiplayer will also exist in a separate environment. This means Career mode progress in the live build will not carry over to the flighting build, and vice versa. In addition, Challenge League in the flighting build will have a separate leaderboard from the live build. To participate in multiplayer, all users must be either on the current live build or the flighting build (users on different builds will not be able to interact with each other). Making Career, Challenge League, and Multiplayer separate in the flighting build allows us to test additional changes and fixes that cannot be tested in the live build. All Career specializations will be unlocked by default in the flighting build to allow participants to preview changes that might not be available (based on Career mode progress) in the live build. FAQs Will joining the Sim Update 2 Beta (and future Sim Update Betas) impact my progress in Career mode on the live build? No, Career mode progress is locked to the live build. No Career progress made in the flighting build will carry over to the live build. However, all Career mode specializations are unlocked by default in the flighting build. Will my leaderboard records in Challenge League transfer when the flighting build becomes the live build? No, Challenge League leaderboards in the flighting build will always be separate from the live build. Will progress in other game modes (Discovery, Free Flight, etc.) be separate in the flighting build and live build? No, only progress in Career and Challenge League are affected. This could change in the future. Will content I own or purchase in the Marketplace be available on both the flighting build and the live build? Yes, all content owned or purchased in the live build or the flighting build will always be available in both builds. If playing on a flighting build, can I invite my friends on the live build to Multiplayer? No. Multiplayer is now limited to friends in the same environment. To invite to Multiplayer, all participants must be in the same build environment General Bug Fixes Fixed a bug on Xbox where the UI did not reflect the actual settings (sounds, language, etc.). Fixed the popup of the third party notices DevMode Project Editor Fixed crash when creating empty SimPropContainer in the wizard SimObject Editor

May 1, 20251 yr 38 minutes ago, psolk said: If you delete the profile does it still CTD? Never tried that. I only assign the rudder in 2024. Everything else (all hardware) is assigned in Prosim, so outside the sim. With every beta update I assign the rudder again. As long as there is no new beta the assignment remains. 5950x3d 5.4-5.7 GHz - Asus ROG 870 Crosshair Apex - GSkill Neo 2x 24 Gb 6000 mhz / cas 26 - MSI RTX 5090 Gaming Trio OC - 1x SSD M2 6000 2TB - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 1Tb - Corsair 5400 case - Corsair 360 liquid cooling set - 3x 75’ TCL tv. 13600 6 cores @ 5.1 GHz / 8 cores @ 4.0 GHz (hypterthreading on) - Asus ROG Strix Gaming D - GSkill Trident 4x Gb 3200 MHz cas 15 - Asus TUF RTX 4080 16 Gb - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 2TB - 2x Sata 600 SSD 500 Mb - Corsair D4000 Airflow case - NXT Krajen Z63 AIO liquide cooling - FOV : 200 degrees My flightsim vids : https://www.youtube.com/user/fswidesim/videos?shelf_id=0&sort=dd&view=0
