I mean failures

In 2024 it is called wear and tear. You can read the SDK about it and you will find plenty of information.

Ahhh, personal insults/remarks now then? I'll just leave that here... 

Blind to its own personal insults and remarks that it started the pompous pot once again calling the kettle black.  

The more I use MSFS 2024, the more I’m liking it and is now my “go to” platform.  I was really impressed with the night flight I performed … my aircraft and the AI aircraft where lighting up the clouds as they/I flew thru them (something that is available in P3D V6 but has an FPS cost).

The Controller setup is still a nightmare, but as I work thru its interface, I’m getting used to it.  Button/Axis conflict resolution should NOT be something I have to manually correct, but at least it does show me what the conflict is and I can easily uncheck the conflicting assignment (click the gear icon on the assignment row).  But just overlaying a number on the assignment with no context of what that number means (the count of conflicts) is poor design.

The “hardware” area in the lower right is bizarre, it seems to be presenting controller events but it always shows an axis event when nothing is happening?  Or when I click a controller button it takes a few click before I can actually see the button number in that tiny single line (under “Hardware”) … maybe I’m missing something, but that one line window is far too small to show controller events.

I’m hoping when SU3 goes “live” (not Beta), some of these issues get fixed, but visually MSFS 2024 (using SSAA) is better than XP12 and P3D on my PCs.

LOD Radius is still the “missing” part of MSFS 2024, needs to be further out even at the costs of more VRAM and FPS, let me decide as I’m not an FPS chaser, I’m more a image quality chaser, 30 FPS is fine even on my 5090 … which might get replaced with AMD 9080XT or 9090XT 32GB … 32GB VRAM is a must.

OMG, another 'delusional' MSFS 2024 user!  

I'm struck by the fact not much of my 24Gb of VRAM is in use even in pretty complex terminals.  It was much higher initially when I first installed 2024.   I guess that is back to tuning for Xbox?

I am an IQ chaser always, with a minimum native frame rate of 50 I'm able to meet with 10% headroom over that in the Fenix 320-200 in most settings.  Landed just now in 3rd party KSAN in that plane and it was smooth to the gate at 50FPS-native.  The headroom undoubtedly shrunk but never looked.

If you haven't done this yet check it out it's really fabulous for sharpening w/ less artifact.  Read the comments below it first as you may not need to do the reg hack:

Never said all those with complaints have something wrong with their PCs that is your twist.  The red flag in abennet's post was the obviously screwed up drop from 90fps to 10fps during landing.  If that happens to you in 2024 it's very likely your configuration from hardware drivers or your LOD settings or something along those lines.  I don't need to visit forums which are replete with problem reporting so are super biased to the negative.  What I do know is 2024 SU2 has been fabulous, trouble free, visually super compelling and with stellar performance.

Sorry Noel but I completely disagree with you here - I have the exact same issue but it wasn't a problem in SU1 and early versions of SU2. There's absolutely nothing wrong with my computer or setup - Asobo have broken something. Not saying your experience is invalid, but it's certainly more common than you're allowing for - check the thousands of posts about it on the main forum in multiple threads. It is a big deal for many.

SU2 also broke the use of Tobii for me. It was working fine before SU2 (with some workarounds, because it has never worked completely properly in MSFS 2024), but since SU2 it will not work at all, even with workarounds.

Yes, a fantastic method of sharpening.  Both 2024 and XP12 benefit greatly.

This is probaboy the first post of yours I have ever liked. Hell must be freezing over if we are on the same page for once.

I'm using the current SU2 and don't experience this at all.  What's different?  That is the question Asobo is tasked with.  Really challenging to get down to the bottom of largely because the huge amount of variability amongst end user PCs including of course all of the myriad add-on software loaded and setup within them.

I'm not sure - but they can check their changelogs and maybe trawl through to see "what did we do between SU2b1 and SU2b2" to see what might be the culprit. Hopefully it's something daft like telemetry being left on or something, but it's definitely annoying for those of us who suffer with the problem - landings are the best bit 🙂

Yep, this is when it appeared exactly for me. I didn’t have the massive fps drop when about 20ft above the runway on the release of 2024, or in SU1, but it appeared about halfway (I think) through the SU2 beta and has stayed ever since.

I shall ignore the disrespectful nature of various previous comments, but suffice to say, all of these issues are mentioned by a lot of other people on the official forums.

If other users don’t have them, or are simply blind to them, or ignore them on purpose and just want to jump on the bandwagon of MSFS2024 is the greatest thing since sliced bread, then good for them. But they are very real and are documented by many users.

Something like 2020's low power mode option.

The MAX cockpit door jumping you outside prevents exploration of the nicely done cabin with shift WASD.

You only like posts you agree with?  Kinda odd … keep your mind open.  

If P3D V7 or XP13 comes up with something better, that could become my “go to” platform.  Single solutions have NEVER served me well, in fact, software engineering is always evolving (and yes I use AI tools to generate code JetBrains ReSharper).

But for now, MSFS 2024 is my go to platform … but that could change because I embrace change that shows a benefit.

I would jump ship too if there is a signficantly better flight sim and the price is reasonable. XP 12 was not it. Maybe P3D v7 will be that good.

As it stands now, MSFS 2024 is the best for me right now and the gap is quite large. For bush flying, nothing comes close to MSFS 2024, not even MSFS 2020.
