(Not necessarily this one, just the overall beta issue process?)Just don't bother wasting your time, even when bugs are reported and "Logged" during beta they still don't fix them during that time, they get shuffled elsewhere then it's pot luck if they get fixed!Edit: See here for example #725https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/3d-objects-and-landmarks-night-lights-overblown-again/ Edited August 14Aug 14 by MarcG Pico Neo3 Link VR - Windows 11 64bit, Gigabyte Z590 Aorus Elite Mobo, i7-10700KF CPU, Gigabyte RX 9070 XT OC 16gb (AMD GPU), 32gig Corsair 3600mhz RAM, SSD x2 + M.2 SSD 1tb x1 Saitek X45 HOTAS - Saitek Pro Rudder Pedals - Logitech Flight Yoke - Homemade 3 Button & 8-directional Joystick Box, SNES Controller (used as a Button Box - Additional USB Numpad (used as a Button Box)

Sadly Phoenix is still broken!For some reason and I believe it just happened randomly a while back the photogrammetry scenery for the Phoenix area just disappeared in FS2024. I believe it still works in FS2020 but in FS2024 it looks pretty awful now.As is Palm Springs I'm afraid but much worse. I was really hoping this would be fixed with SU6. The whole metropolitan area is about two feet lower than the surrounding scenery 🙃 9950X3D - X870E Aorus Master- TUF 5090 OC - 64GB DDR5 - 1500W HXi - Titan 360 RX LCD - 9100 Pro x 2 - LG 45GX950A - HOTAS Warthog with Ava Base

It's been a while since I've watched Airplane, I may need to fire it up on the tablet (who needs a flight planner anyway?) for my in-flight entertainment as I enjoy the new SU this weekend 🙂
August 14Aug 14 Updated to SU6 final and all good. actually better than the recent beta, very smooth and great (actually better) performance. had slight stutters and items popping in with the betas when flying especially into Ini EGLL but not today - and yes, I even saw landing gears on all other planes when coming into and just now when getting out of EGLL for my second leg to EDDL. nice work Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"

August 14Aug 14 Will we see more night lighting for the default airports ? Did I remember correctly as it was announced for all default airports ? According to notes only manually updated default airports will have this upgrade. A bit confused here. Night lighting for default fields was my main thing to look for this update :( Faruk IŞIK

Night lighting for default fields was my main thing to look for this update :(Isn't it what the release note mentions? "Generic" means "Default", no ?MastLights have been added to a large number of generic airports, ranging in size from M to XXL, with automatic placement. This improves illumination at parking spots at these airports in night conditions. Edited August 14Aug 14 by vbazillio Vincent B.
