Got it fixed. Required a full hardrive format and complete reinstall of everything. Wonderful way to spend an evening. Now to reload everything back up

The problem is Xbox and gaming services. Neither will update and are giving error codes.

I don't get past the opening screen. It says validation 0% then a screen comes up saying Internet connection required.

Day two and the same nonsense. No idea where to even begin because it's not my system that's the issue and all of you have no problem. It was working fine until this update.

If that's all it is then no big deal. Just hope it's not something where I need to spend hours watching YouTube videos about making coding adjustments.

Is anyone else getting this ridiculous internet connection required error from Microsoft? Tried starting the Sim, said there was an update. Downloaded the update now I'm getting an Internet connection required error. Nothing wrong with my internet

It certainly was before this update. My graphics are set to ultra. I get around 57fps, but right now the graphics look like flightsim for windows 95. I don't get it.

Seems some of you have similar issues. I'll try the suggestions and see what happens. Like I said, it runs smooth if it gets going. 2020 on the other hand is butter smooth in all aspects.

So that's what happens as soon as I start on the runway. Everything is blurry and the plane acts up. It'll be sitting there not moving, then it crashes and resets me airborne. Same thing you described but right from the get go. Strange.

It's bizzare. The runway is a foggy grey patch. Then it draws itself out. Cockpit is just a frame and it draws itself out too. Maybe I need to reset my video card.

Wondering if it's just me but 2024 is now unusable. Once I select the departure airport I have to wait 5 to 10 minutes before it pushes through the cloud to the airport runway. That's after a good 5 minutes after selecting the departure airport. So 15 minutes. Then once on the runway the graphics very slowly draw themselves right in front of my eyes. I start with basically the skeleton of a cockpit and grey patch for a runway. That all takes a few minutes to propegate. Performance is fine once all is said and done, but that's basically unusable in my opinion.

I purchased 2024 through the Xbox app on the PC. 2020 was the same. Do all the versions perform the same? Do they all install the same? As in does Steam, the MS store and Xbox versions all install the same content on the PC and use the cloud the same way? Would performance at all be tied to the version one purchased?

CYYZ is brutal

It's pretty stable. It's always just under 800/MBS all day or night. It's just mfs

It literally changes with the time of day. Right now it's not so bad

I know it's cloud based. What I meant was, is all of it on the cloud? Even the menu. So far I'm not at all impressed by this product. Still trying to dial it in before deciding if I want to refund it. It's certainly not ready for release. There are days I log in and it crawls. Everything crawls. The menu system operates with a multi second delay. Clicking on resume or quit does nothing. This morning I had to CTRL ALT DEL to exit the program because it simply was not responding. I could click the selections so it wasn't frozen, it just didn't react. There are times when it's decent but nowhere near the smoothness of 2020. Is there something I'm doing wrong with the setup? I don't get it. How is the menu system running at what appears to be 2 frames a second. Then there's the flying part and I have a rig that can run it in ultimate....sometimes. Wondering if others are experiencing this. I've read mixed reviews on this SIM so is it just a selection or some setting I may have messed up because I know some of you seem to have no issues whereas for others is not even usable.

I was using the driver's from the Logitech site but the newest ones are from 2020. They are the ones ndoug posted. Nothing shows up in the control settings so I don't know how the adjust the assignments. I tried spad but I found it pretty complex.

So after researching here I figured out that drivers need to be started before the SIM so the panel works (ridiculous) it works for the most part. However with the Boeing's, the Altitude does not work. Anyone using Saitek/Logitech having this problem?

Just saw this. Thank you! Will try tomorrow

So this is the issue. I think I messed up the default honeycomb profiles. Is there a way to reset them?

I know how to uninstall the sim but when I reinstall it, all the settings are still there and I'd like to be able to reinstall it as if it's never been on the computer. My Honeywell bindings are a mess and my graphics are not setup right. I remember during the original install the graphics setting were suggested by the Sim. I'd like to have that again.

Thanks, that worked!

Not sure what's going on. FS 2020 was a breeze for multi monitor, this new one is not. I have 3 monitors. When I try setting the 3 of them up all I get is the exact same image on all 3 monitors. No left or right side. Am I missing something?
