Wait for Intel's12th gen Alder Lake? Meant to release in November...

"I never doubted you for a minute Captain Mainwaring" 👏

Try this?

SU5 has flatter mountains? Ok I see it... SU5 has more HDR? Honestly I don't see much difference ehere. They both look ok, but maybe screen shots can't convey the HDR differences very well.

Yes, I like to have the task bar positioned vertically, along the left hand edge of my monitor, and not horizontally along the bottom edge of my monitor. With a wide screen it's better to "waste" space on the left hand edge of the screen rather than the bottom... IMO.

Great news! 👍👍👍

I like to dock the Taskbar vertically on the left side of my screen (not horizontally along the bottom). Is that possible in Windows 11?

Support for AMD FidelityFX super resolution? 🤔🤞 https://www.amd.com/en/technologies/radeon-software-fidelityfx-supported-games

SU4 sounds like a lot of improvements... Excellent! 👍🍻

not (They do speak of the patch having corrected the ESC bug and it is).

Looks ok... At least we have some higher res screenshots now. 👍

No screenshots, only tiny "thumbnails" 🤦‍♂️ Why? Are they trying to hide something? Surely if the 3D modelling was impressive they would want to show it off in high-res detail? 🤷‍♂️

Really? So you're saying PMDG should just shrug off a potential $600,000 in quick/easy revenue from a "lite" version and instead put all their eggs into the "full version" basket at $139, that might be another 2 years off? Seems to me PMDG already have done 90% of the 3D modelling work (ie for P3D) and could reuse/adapt all that work and get a "lite" version out the door in 3 months. Of course, maybe MSFS has changed everything and they need to start from scratch, but I don't think so. Global Flight Ops, is that ever coming out? I lost interest years ago....

Why doesn't PMDG release a "Lite" version ASAP with excellent 3D modelling + basic systems? 737/777/747/DC3 surely it's not too hard to "recycle" those already excellent 3D models for use in MSFS? Then release a "Pro" version later, with the study-sim systems we are used to... 🤔 I've not spent a cent on PMDG (for P3D) since MSFS came out and I never will again... only interested in MSFS now-a-days. 🤷‍♂️

Little Nav Map is great! Love the ability to see STARS/SIDS on the map... makes it very easy to find the correct procedure.

You have to wonder just how many actual devs (and not "talking-head" managers that love having their faces on Youtube) are actually working on MSFS... It's not 200 like they reckon... I think it's more like 10 actual devs working on MSFS directly, IMHO.

Contrails are needed more for AI aircraft, not your own plane... IMHO shows Asobo's focus on the "I drive my car from outside with a controller" XBox crowd.

Wasn't Asobo meant to be working with "Working Title" etc... Hey Asobo, just completely replace your code with Working Title's version, and give them a little money for the priveledge... Can't be that hard, can it? Clearly your devs have no time to fix things, IMHO... Oh wait, how many people you have working on MSFS, 200 isn't it? Yeah right.... 🤦‍♂️

Disappointing, but have come to expect that with Asobo. 🤷‍♂️ How many people are working on this sim? Oh that's right, 200 🤣

Intel jumped the shark. 🦈

There's was a utility, that I used about 6months ago, that lets you change the species composition and min/max heights of trees for each global "biome". If you're just flying around your local area you might be able to tweak the global biomes in your area to have the right species mix/height of trees. I remember I used it to get rid of the massive default trees that MSFS seems to favour and at last Sydney looked it was situated in Australia and not the Amazon. It worked great! Sorry I can't remember what it's called, but I think I found the link to it here on Avsim somewhere.

100% the wrong approach! 🤦‍♂️ Instead, just keep objects the proper real world scale, and if you're having trouble seeing them use the mouse-wheel zoom feature.

Decades? 🤔

What is "re-projection"? Is that the VR headset interpolating frames so that your eyes see 90fps even if the sim is only generating 30fps? I thought people get motion sick if their eyes are only seeing 30fps? Just wondering 🤔

Very nice! Good job Asobo 👍
