Someone else having a purple HUD after SU1 Beta?

Moved to Sim Update 1 Beta | MSFS 2024 as this question relates to the Beta.

Yes, but it is not only the A400m HUD that is wrong in color now in SU1beta.
Apart from that, all HUDs have become nearly unreadable at night due to the over-exposure (other thread on that in the forum).
So maybe you want to adapt this thread title to HUD color and readability, so we can collect here.
A400m broken color + readability
C17 broken color + readability
F18 color interestingly is OK, so obviously other tech used there; but readability also broken.
Sometimes I really wonder if the even hop into the planes even ONCE before releasing something…even if it’s a beta… that should be standard QA, right?

Same here. We didn’t get any fixes for A400 but we got nice cyberpunk hud.
Same here. Still can’t use engines below freezing, either.
still not fixed in both the A400M and the C-17 however I did notice that the F/A-18E had a green HUD and looked normal in the latest SU1 Beta 1.3.13.0

So according to the SU1 beta patchnotes of release 28.02.2025 this should be fixed now:
“fixed wrong HUD color (purple/white instead of green) on some aircraft”
For me, it is not fixed looking at the A400m. Shader and rolling cache were cleared.
Yes it’s 1.3.24.0 here.
Just did another test in free flight:
- first spawn: HUD green as it should be
- ended flight and spawned at 3 other airport (on runway): HUD purple
QA? 
EDIT: oh and noticed that the A400m has no outside sound. Completely silent standing with running props on the runway. And also no sound in cockpit of anything…
EDIT 2:
I think I found the reason: the game unlocks the “ready to fly” button too early.
When I wait like 10 seconds after it becomes available, HUD is green, sound is there etc.
If I click it shortly after it becomes available: HUD is purple, sound bugged etc…
