For those like me who can't read the link because MS published it in darkscreen mode (I can't read a single word on any site that is using dark screen. I also have trouble walking around the house at midnight when the lights are all off).

Hello @Fielder,

You can modify the forum theme to choose a light mode theme if you like that better by going to your account preferences and choosing the Light Theme as shown in the image below.

Thanks,

Thanks for the message. I had already done that. It worked to lighten messages in the forum. But it does seem to lighten the front pages.

Is there a new experimental build of ChasePlane that works with the SU5 beta? 

Yes, there is.  Was released a few hours ago.

For the record, if you are going to post screenshots with helpful suggestions, then you may want to consider a site other than IMGUR. All I see here in the UK is a sea of purple with CONTENT NOT VIEWABLE IN YOUR REGION.

Just an FYI for @SeedyL , @Overlord  (good suggestion!) in a recent Avsim forum post suggested this alternative for posting images that can be viewed from the UK.

Yes, you are quite right. I use MediaFire myself, but I am not sure if the free option enables direct display of screenshots here.

Okay so I just switched over to SU5 beta finally since Chase playing is now available for the beta. One thing I do notice is now when I hover over dials and switches and the flight deck they are glowing and highlighting which I didn't have set in SU4 and any other prior version. I checked my settings and they are all set to the way they were before su-5 beta. Anybody else having this issue too? Plus not getting frame rate indicator with Riva tuner and the frame cap that I had set to 60 via Riva Tuner is also not working with SU5.

For those with VPN's in the UK, switching to a country such as France before viewing Avsim gets around this issue too.

Unfortunately,  the beta is still broken to me.
It failed to detect my Fulcrum One yoke correctly and mistakenly assigned it as Toli ?
A very strange bug.  😓

Yup..I have it as well.  It's one of the assistance features that seems to be broken and stuck 'on'....
