I just started MSFS and noticed an update to World Update USA , noticed a bunch of DFW files being downloaded. Seems like some of the issues that were present before ( e.g. disappearing runway textures) seem to have been fixed. Did a quick circle around takeoff/landing and seems to be working fine for me .

6 months after release

All depending on the following factors 1. Stability of the sim. If there is major issues with crashes, textures, stutters and we will need to wait for several patches or hotfixes. 2. Addon compatibility. I think sceneries will be compatible almost from the get-go. Aircraft may take up to a 3-6 months ( just a ballpark figure) for people who have top-end systems( like myself) , i don't think sim performance will be an issue. i would say within 6 months MSFS20204 will be the dominant sim.

Loaded up a flight and razer sharp textures right to the horizon for me. Trees and buildings loading up fine. TLOD at around 250 24 GB of VRAM and 32 GB of RAM here But do see pauses and freezes when panning around the cockpit via camera

Just wondering if it is possible to run Block 1 and 2 at the same time same PC ( i have both installers saved) Block 2 is great - just miss the old cabin design and liveries

Yes, now working great! Thanks 🙂

Wonderful update ( those IAE sounds are amazing ) but i am having issues with reverse thrust.(same with block 1) Once i land and press F2 ( i don't have reverse on my joystick) to activate full reverse, it just stays in reverse idle until it slows down to around 80 knots. Tried also holding down the key and it does not kick in until the aircraft is almost at a stop . All my other AC F2 standard key works fine with reverse kicking in right away. I am not on SU15 beta. Wonder if this is normal behavior or a bug

I would say pull the trigger now 2024 is coming out this year but for addons to become compatible it will be minimum 6 months. Its not " compatible on day one" . not at all.

Like the saying goes " a few bad apples ruin it for everyone else" My work IT has put some cumbersome security also and whenever we have to change our passwords , its like running the gauntlet. 2 step verification , apps that don't work or accept passwords, etc. BTW my issues was resolved quickly. Just needed to re-set my activations and now REX works fine thank you

Seems like it has cropped up again Tried to re-install my REX Accuseason Advanced and keep getting " activation key no found" I have activated this in the past with no issues , suddenly nothing works Opened up a ticket a few days ago but no resolution yet. Maybe their activation servers have been down the past several days?

With MSFS2024 on the horizon , i don't think there will be any major aircraft releases before late summer 2024. PMDG 777 maybe 1st quarter but nothing else.

1. A flight saving utility that saves your present flight and panel state . Kind of like the save function in P3D/FSX. You don't lose your settings or panel state. And you can change the weather. 2. Q400 3. Cure for the minecraft textures in Canada ( lack of satellite coverage). Hopeful MSFS2024 improves in this aspect . Funny that virtually all of the flights i have done in Europe and USA rarely have this issue.

I noticed that when i enable GSX and exit the sim , the assistance settings get reset.\ I disable it ( via Addons Linker) before exiting the sim , settings are kept.

Nice to have this tool working for SU14 beta Even with the new sky colors in SU14, sunrise and sunsets are way too red. If you are flying in lets say a very polluted area with tons of haze , then it looks quite realistic. But for me ( Canadian west coast) , sunrise and sunsets are generally a bit more blueish. Especially in fall and winter . The only time when we have very red/orange sunsets is when there is a hint of wildfire smoke in the area( which can happen in summer).

2 or more second pauses i find are due to scenery objects loading ( e.g. airports , cities, POI's like cranes, marinas, wind turbines etc.) I notice around KLAX , these pauses happening like crazy. Funny that i had the same issues in FSX , P3d 32 bit ,and P3d 64 Bit. Must be the increased latency
