Looks like cloud quality in the distance has regressed back to blurry blobs like it was before it was improved in SU3.

LOD draw distances regressed.

Sigh.

I've checked and see nothing of the sort. There's still a ton of the usual transparent nonsense but not the pre SU3 clouds on the horizon.

Like what the heck are they doing?

They don't seem to care about The most demanding fixes and features.

Maybe verify what he's saying before you pile on.

Not mentioned in the patch notes, but the terrain radar is fixed on the A320Neo, will have to check the other default Airbuses.

Edit: Checked them all, it works on all now, including the A400

Not sure if anyone else has noticed but the weird terrain reflections on the windshield of the ATR42/72 are gone. Noticed the improvement on one flight so further testing will have to be done.

    That makes zero sense.

    So for you it's acceptable to continually release updates with regressions? Game breaking ones at that? Of which there is 6 years of evidence, all there on the internet to be seen. Is it wrong to want

I"m sure there is for you. But not for me. That just doesn't happen. View change is assigned to my alpha yoke. I flick the button sideways and the view changes. I flick it again the view changes back. After those changes there is nothing wrong with the view immediately afterwards. I never use the keyboard to change views because keyboards are not ergonomic.

This post decribes it perfectly with videos from 2020 and 2024/SU6 when you can clearly see the terrain loading in, this does seem to be improved from SU5.1 where the cockpit also loads in after the view has changed (Bug introduced in SU4) but that's only one aircraft shown. Seems that particular topic with terrain loading and other LODs "popping" into view is finally gaining traction and getting noticed by Community Mods at least.

When msfs2024 was first released, scenery ahead of you coming closer as you flew would pop into your view as you flew along. That issue has been cured by Asobo with memory optimizations. It was much worse than the videos above. I may still have the issue in the video above. I just never noticed it because it didn't matter enough to catch my attention. I always use Ultra for the setting to preload scenery not currently in view.

managed to do a very successful flight this morning into LGKO/KOS. The new turb effects on finals were brillant, I had problems getting it down on the deck. (but then im not a very good pilot) But the new turb update twined with with Real Turb v2 - https://secure.simmarket.com/m.-a.-realturb-realturb-cat-areas-global-v2-msfs.phtml it was a real challenge. looks promising.

anyone having issues with the PMDG 777s having the departure screen go blank after selecting a runway?

Want to know if it's SU6 issue or if my aircraft is bugged.

I didn't watch the video but it's very possible the user was running dynamic settings. In that mode the scenery popping is super apparent. No one with a high end PC should be running that. It's basically for people with potato PCs hehe. I sometimes run that in VR cause it does same some performance

How else are we supposed to get more performance?

Cloud quality has not regressed in SU6, ignore that post.

Honestly them fixing the ILSs and PAPIs is a big deal to me.

I did notice the Alps looking like a pea soup of green and grey today, sort of FS98 level of texture.

I cranked up my Rex Atmos to hide it away and focused on the gorgeous foreground scenery. Ah the joys of flying in perpetual Indian smog :D

No issues with the Alps here.
