October 8, 2025Oct 8 Thanks Tuskin - I forgot about this. Going to bring it up on the TV with a coffee a bit later. Rob (but call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind).

Just watched it, no, he said they have a backlog, they'll go through everything on the wishlist (including weather / clouds) and everything will appear in subsequent SUs. Basically same thing he said last time. No dedicated weather / clouds SU that I could catch. i910900k, RTX 3090, 32GB DDR4 RAM, AW3423DW, Ruddy girt big mug of Yorkshire Tea

October 9, 2025Oct 9 Author the new night light texture in SU4 is 4million by 4million pixels if I understood Seb correctly, and yeah it works just how I thought, they just rendered in the lighting of all the existing 'real' night lights into a texture. I wonder how long it took to render that. I imagine they did it in smaller chunks on linked machines or something. Edited October 9, 2025Oct 9 by Tuskin38

I wonder how long it took to render that. I imagine they did it in smaller chunks on linked machines or something. I thought it was a great example of how far more challenging and complicated developing a sim like this is than people realise. It goes for all sims really. It seems an obvious solution to the sepia mask problem – just remove it, keep the lights. But you can't really do that, as actually rendering this many lights would affect performance too much. So okay, let's up the mask's resolution. But wait you're not done yet, you also need streaming tech. Because actually, you can't just keep it locally – it's far too big. So now you have to make sure it correctly streams on the fly. And you need to make sure the streamed chunks fit into vram, but also not for too long otherwise they'll overload it with everything else going on. It's really quite amazing just how many different systems this "simple" fix affects.
October 9, 2025Oct 9 Author ini builds is helping fix up the art of bunch of default aircraft that are considered subpar, like the Boeings. The B747-F's nose door will work in SU4 by the time the beta is done. The Praetor will be out sometime next year Blackbird is doing the T-38A, they've been working on it for around a year. The XB-1 Boom will be free for everyone. Edited October 9, 2025Oct 9 by Tuskin38

October 9, 2025Oct 9 I must admit whilst this Dev Stream did contain a lot of the usual "We're looking at it" and "its in the pipe" I found Seb's explanation of the optimizations they made to the main thread processing really interesting.

Put yourself in my shoes, I have never even played X-plane, or MS2020. I'll try MS2024 for the first time after many of your experiences have been somewhat or entirely ironed out.
