Maybe in preparation of bringing on nintendo switch next? That cannot seriously be an intended change?? How the hell do they think that they can get away with removing all of the windows on the autogen houses? This is supposed to be a next generation flight simulator, not a pile of garbage like FS5.

Probably some BETA glitch. I seriously doubt they would do this... Back in de day FS5 was sim heaven for me. Textures to represent the ground!

I do not think they purposely removed windows nor do I know if that's what they intended to do (doubtful, I hope!)

It's incredible how they continually have to go backwards before they can move forwards, yes it's a beta but yet again it's full of issues that shouldn't be happening. Now they've gotta waste yet more time fixing what they've broken, rinse & repeat since August 2020.

So...what did this veil look like on your old OLED screen, about the same as w/ standard backlit LCD? Exactly the same 'veil' on the OLED screen, which was HDR too! The monitor I now have is not HDR, but is still bright enough and I appreciate the wider FOV too. The OLED screen is very good for blacks, so the display had great contrast, yet this AOC AGON Monitor, although not quite as good, still has good contrast which you can see in the screen shots.

There are many more bugs in the sim than these three items.
February 15Feb 15 Did this first beta of SU5 fix any regressions from earlier sim updates? No sign of any new liveries for AI traffic-would have loved to see the new Korean Air livery for AI traffic.

Apparently the developer of vPilot has a solution but doesn't provide any details (I've asked): https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/vpilot-beta-solves-missing-landing-gear/750138 Since I don't do VATSIM, I don't use vPilot and I don't know if vPilot will ONLY work with VATSIM or if the developer has a more global solution to the missing landing gear.
