  • well beta is for people who want to test, not for people looking for a stable platform I get the logic of people wanting in on the beta, but i'm mystified by people who are horrified at bugs and

    This thread is about SU3 not SU2

  • Software Development is oftent multi streamed. This SU3 has probably been in the wings for a few weeks now.  My take, -B

When I unselected Foveated Rendering, I got less stu-stu-stuttering

And it finally happened to me... I opted out of the Beta before firing up the sim as I wanted to stay on SU2. It downloaded an 8.4GB update and my entire Community folder is gone and all settings reset. Just wonderful.

mine went past languages for the first launch but then CTD'ed. second try went fine, loading now the fenix at EGLL. Luckily all settings and profiles are there, but I never had an issue with that during any previous betas or updates

Just curious as to why you would use the Fenix as a starting point when testing a brand new Beta? Would you not be best to clean out your community folder and just use default aircraft and sceneries to check actual sim functionality?

Use Add-on Linker. You can restore your add-ons in a few seconds, it's as easy as a click of a button.

MSFS can wipe my Community Folder with each update and I just restore it with Add-on Linker in seconds. It's not a big deal if you are using Add-on Linker and you are storing your add-ons outside the MSFS folder structure.

the ini Builds Airbus A321LR is now called that on the UI, instead of just 'Airbus A321'

They also added a KLM livery for it (I think that's new at least I could have just forgotten it was there)

I'm happy they're working so hard to fix things now.  SU2 is borked for me lol.

It's just not only the community folder that gets wiped, though. Custom a/c camera and a/c state files, exe.xml, and user config with graphic settings get wiped too. All of that needs to be backed up before leaving the beta program.

community folder that gets wiped

out of curiosity, those facing reinstalls or empty community folders, do you have a default MS install or did you install it - like me - in a custom folder/share? just wondering since I *never* had my community folder missing or MSFS reinstall but I always have my custom install path on drive F:/ like Flightsim...

I too have my community folder on an F: drive and never had any problems with it during installs/betas.

Moving community folder from the default install location should resolve the erasing contents when updating. AddOn Linker is basically doing the same thing!

There are generic versions of ZBAD and LTFM now

edit: those may have been added with SU2

Thanks, yeah I'm using Addon Linker but I still spent an hour reinstalling my camera profiles, startup states, overwriting the Tobii profile that was overriden (and still can't be configured in the UI), relinking AIG and GSX, reinstalling Fenix, ini A350...
