That was pretty obvious during the livestream a few days ago. They seemed genuinely... surprised by questions and issues that the community has been complaining about for ages.

Another thing that happens quite often is when you’re at the holding point and you know there’s an aircraft on approach, but you can’t see it until it starts being “drawn” in the sky, already quite close to the ground. It appears in stages: first one section of the aircraft, then another... until the whole thing is fully rendered. It lands, and as it moves further down the runway and gets farther away, it starts disappearing again...

I still haven’t done a VFR flight with SI yet (and that was actually one of the reasons I decided to give it a try...), but for IFR, the whole AI traffic management, ATC communications, being able to talk to the co-pilot, and interact with the cabin crew — for me, it’s been a real game-changer. It’s expensive, but I’m more than happy to pay for it! And I’m using it without a microphone... which is even more surreal. I can only imagine how much better it must be with a microphone!

I'm using IVAO MTL with a 3440x1440 screen and have AI planes floating.

I’m starting to think that 2024 will be the last Microsoft flight simulator I’ll use. I’m getting fed up with all of this.

I dont use "betas", so... I'm waiting full release 😄

1.8.14 here. Steam Edition, no Betas.

This time I didn’t have any problems. I don’t know if I had some network issues yesterday or if it was because I changed the Primary Map to Google Map 1 for todays flight. MSFS 2024 looks spectacular!

No no.... its very blurry! Later I'll post a screenshot.

FL300 more or less....

In my case, when I’m at cruise altitude, I see blurry ground textures, but as soon as I start descending, everything looks really good. Which setting could be affecting the quality when I’m at cruise altitude?

Yesterday I noticed some unusual stuttering, but it could be any number of things: the 2020 scenery, ChasePlane, the Fenix A320, GFX, or SU6 itself. But I’d bet it was the 2020 scenery... Another thing I noticed was better cloud quality.

Yeah... It was definitely Tritrisim's GFX. I thought it had been MSFS... Sorry 👼

No no, that was a MSFS 2024 SU6 flight (Real Weather+ActiveSky in Passive Mode).

I've been waiting years and years for these effects!

TwitchFSS EJETS 175 TEST current experimental build .42 - jetts...jettstreamjj entrou ao vivo na Twitch. Acompanhe o VOD de Microsoft Flight Simulator agora.

Version 4.0.12 August 2nd, 2026 GSX (all versions) NEW: GSX now keeps AI airplanes off the parking spot you have selected. Until now, if the simulator had put one of its own AI aircraft where you were heading, you had to notice it yourself and use the "Free this parking from AI" menu option, often only realising once you had already arrived. GSX now watches the spot and removes an AI airplane standing on it, so the parking is clear by the time you get there. Only an AI actually standing inside the detection area of your own parking is removed, so AI parked on the stands next to yours is never touched. It also only acts once you are reasonably close to the spot — 60 metres by default — because the simulator simply sends another AI to a parking you are still far away from. Both the option and the distance can be changed in Settings > Parking. GSX (all versions) Change: With automatic repositioning enabled, GSX now also clears the simulator's own default ground vehicles from the parking you started at, even when no repositioning actually takes place — for example when that parking has no custom stop position saved, or your engines are already running. Until now those vehicles were only removed as part of the repositioning itself, so if your parking did not qualify they were left standing around the aircraft until ground services were called. GSX (all versions) Fix: When more than one customization profile existed for the same airport, your customizations could appear to come and go between sessions: parkings you had customized read as untouched, and restarting GSX appeared to fix it until the next time. GSX was choosing between the profiles by file date, and every save changes that date, so the profile in use could flip from one session to the next; the dialog that asks which profile you want was also permanently suppressed. GSX now picks the profile that genuinely matches the airport, asks you when it cannot tell, and no longer creates a new empty profile without saying so. GSX (all versions) Fix: In the 3D vehicle editor, a vehicle could be shown at its default place instead of the position you had saved — most noticeable with the baggage trains, which seemed to sit somewhere different every time — and some vehicles could be missing from the editor altogether, with nothing to explain it, varying from one time you opened it to the next. The editor now always shows each vehicle at its saved position, places the vehicle itself there as well, and waits for vehicles that are not ready yet instead of leaving them out. The 2D editor was never affected.

I think this whole intro needs to be changed. The music, the video (why a full-screen video, and always the same one?)... it's really bad.

We need 2K textures as an option.

@BijanStudio Can your Bijan Seasons Enhanced be placed in the regular Community? In my case, by default, it’s always placed in Community 2024.
