Has the situation where some of us have been unable to access the MSFS2024 beta three been fixed or acknowledged by MSFS?

  • Wow, getting amazing thunderstorms now with live weather, with lots of lightning. Try KCRG now. Finally!

    YES! They slipped that short line in the patch notes but WOW what a difference I'm seeing in the storms. One step at a time, I am very happy and impressed that they are finally making some updates to

  • I see lightning at KSFB, not over the airport but 5 or so miles away. Edit: Getting lots of turbulence inside the thunderstorm clouds too, this is awesome.

I have not been in any of the betas, and yet I am seeing this too. It started at the end of beta 2. Using CapFrameX, what I see is ultra-brief periodic stutters every 10-20 seconds. I've been calling them "hitches" because it's not a long-lived degradation in performance that we see with an overloaded system, but instead these very brief glitches that cause a momentary (but massively annoying) interruption in the otherwise smooth flow. 

 

On my 2024, hitches are always related to sound settings. In Windows control panel or in the msfs Sound options. I change things around in those 2 areas and then the problem goes away. Stutters on final is not a sound problem on my msfs. But periodic hitches throughout the flight always are a sound problem on my msfs.

A different kind of hitching (on the edges of the screen) results for me if I turn off HAGS (in 2024). So I turn it on.

I did one of my preferred magics 🙂 - uninstalled FS 2024 and reinstalled it .... No error on start after the reinstall.

You mention the "controls directory" (?) Which one is this ?

Thx!

The Controls directory is <Appdata>\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_xxxxxxxxxx\SystemAppData\wgs.  To backup the General | Graphics and some other settings, you need to backup file usercfg.opt in directory <Appdata>\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_xxxxxxxx\LocalCache.  These directories might vary a bit depending the MSFS 2024 version you have.  Mine is the MS Store version.
