... And the target date for the public release of SU3 is "We hope it for next week" 07/29 (source https://www.twitch.tv/msfsofficial)

There was a dev stream yesterday? I thought it was about time for another dev stream, and checked the Twitch schedule a couple of times this week and last week and never saw anything announced, nor in the Thursday update blog posts... They should advertise it just a *bit* better

I just started my PC and sim for the first time since Wednesday morning and the sim did not update.  I am still on beta 1.5.18 (MS Store version).  Any idea how to get this new beta to install?

for MS Store through MS Store --> Updates --> Check for Updates, that's how it works here.

Thanks, I'll try that.  Strange though.  Every sim update (beta or standard update) has been installed automatically when I start the sim.  I don't think MS/Asobo wants multiple versions of the beta running at any given time...

Hello @pstrub,

Yesterday's Developer Livestream was mentioned in the Thursday blog post last week:

 

Quote

As a reminder, our next Developer Livestream is next Wednesday, July 23, 2025 starting at 10:30am PDT (1730 UTC). You can watch our panel of Jorg, Seb, and Martial respond to questions from the community, discuss the upcoming development roadmap, and reveal other changes coming to the sim live on our official Twitch channel. If you’re not able to watch the broadcast in real-time, we’ll also upload the VOD to our YouTube channel afterward.

 

And also in the Thursday blog post from the week before that:

Finally, we are now accepting questions for our next Developer Livestream scheduled for July 23, 2025. If you’d like to pre-submit a question to the panel, you can do so at this link.

 

Additionally, we announced that the Developer Livestream was starting on all our social platforms (@msfsofficial on Bluesky, Facebook, Threads, and Twitter).

Kinda low key enjoying the responses from the MSFS team 😁

The overexposed landmarks at night are still there. I guess that this is OK for Asobo and is gonna stay this way...

It’s not

Ok, thanks! Seems like I missed that - would be nice though to make sure it's scheduled on Twitch ahead of time too!

You're right, of course! Stupid me, must've been too distracted!  😅

I didn't see this mentioned anywhere.  In the .19 beta, in VR, you can popout the MFD and/or GPS and drag it to an external monitor.  No big deal except that it now works/updates.  Thinking it was a fluke I flew one flight with the PA28, exited the sim, restarted with the 172 and it still works.  This is a game changer for me as I use mixed reality in VR.  Since I haven't tried to do this in a long time, I'm not sure which update this was implemented.

That's cool, be good if they can fix the long standing bug whereby the toolbar windows don't remember their position when you move them, they broke that early on with 2020, is that fixed now? (Not currently in the beta)

How far away is this from a release candidate condition? SU2 BETA at the end ran well for me.

A new SU3 Beta update is expected next week:

The team is currently preparing a new pre-release test build which will include performance improvements and new options to reduce/eliminate static aircraft, fauna, etc. as discussed in the recent Dev Q&A. This beta update is targeted for middle of next week.
