This SU5 is for me acomplete dissaster.
All worked well on SU4.
I can’t fly with the A320 and the A32NX because of engine one failure.
Killed my Airbus TCA quadrant settings, no buttons do work anymore (autothrothle, eng1 on, …), and I´m unable to recover them back. Don´t know what to do about it (controls are already in “legacy”).
No highlighting, all switches of the TrustMaster Airbus Joystick+ throttle Q. not responding. Even keybourd keys. Altough the sliders ans stick is working. Can’t fly anyway. Very annoying. Will Ihave to wait for another update ???

Hmm more issues cropping up. ATC is not responding anymore and my sound is occasionally cutting out. I checked my CPU/GPU temps, in the usual range. FS2020 has 12GB allocated, 6GB active. All seems fine, except getting the cold shoulder from ATC and crackling/cutting in the audio every time I turn the camera around.
This should be stickied to the very top of the page so people are aware instead of having to look through 1,000+ posts to find it

Sorry I’m really flightsimmer from the first hour and really spent a lot of money on this sim
but this latest update (read downgrade) really can’t
so many things that just start to irritate
hope we get a chance on pc to cancel the update and get old version back again
Or that there will soon be a possibility to get the old graphical things back
and other stuff like it was 3 days ago
small example
Where has Brasserie Waalhaven gone at Rotterdam airport
that whole building is gone
3 meters in front of the building
there he is

She crashes sometimes. Just now I asked her to land at Sky Dubai RW24 and she crashed the plane after landing turning off the RW:) If you see that the plane is just circling over the airfield ask select the RW to land via radio manually.
I honestly couldn’t perceive a problem. Please tell me where in the video to find whatever’s “so annoying.”

I got ATC to respond to me this time, requested an IFR flight plan and now she’s finally flying higher instead of hugging the terrain at merely 1,000 ft above. Not quite though, she’s flying at 7,800 ft while instructed to fly at 10K ft. Oddly ATC doesn’t care (normally keeps nagging to expedite your climb)
I’m happy she’s flying straight and level for a change and I can look around!
Sound issues are gone too. I restarted the game after the AI crashed the plane. It’s probably the best thing to do, restart game after a flight. Too bad it takes 5 to 7 minutes to start since SU5.
sometimes ? you can change better terrain , terrain ,terrain to desktop , desktop , desktop

Probably much closer to 90%
Sorry to sound rude here but watch the video again? You can watch it in 1440p. I don’t ever recall seeing this and if you fly a lot under VFR in which you should keep looking outside the cockpit and not buried inside of it looking at instruments you will definitely start to notice it. I would easily say that 98% of my flying on VATSIM is conducted under VFR looking outside the cockpit all the time and referencing charts and looking for traffic. I can’t imagine that I just started to notice this. I made another video of this this morning in another area. It’s “so annoying” because it’s an eyesore.

It breaks the smart cam as well, doing a fly by over a landmark causes stutters and pop in. On my way to Denmark the ocean was disappearing beneath me at the bottom edge of the screen. Black triangles visible. The culling is far too aggressive.

It will take them an entire year to track down and repair all the disastrous bugs they’ve introduced into this program. I think there’s nothing to do but to go back to the last stable release, give users a way to “downgrade” to that, and then divide the development into two products, one for the console and one for the PC. But a hotfix or an update that brings MFS back to where it was before this clusterf___ – that’s a pipe dream if I ever heard of one.

Go to where your install is: …\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache
Edit UserCfg.opt. There are TWO sets of configs in here, one for VR, one for normal. Make sure you are editing the non-VR if you are NOT using VR.
Under Graphics, change your LoD Factors to 3.0 or higher. Also, check that your PirmaryScaling is 1.0 or = to what you have in your settings in the GUI. Mine was 1.0 in GUI, but 0.5 in UserOpt.cfg. (???) Changing that brought up my graphics quality quite a bit, but still behind SU4.
Save, then set the file read only. This helped the funky sudden pop in, but is not fixing the HORRIFIC downgrade in texture quality overall.

This was my first impression of SU5… “Wow, looks’ like X-plane with bad mesh overlays…”

That’s an incredible amount to have gotten addressed and fixed in just 48 hours. Congratulations; the team must be exhausted.
Of course, it barely scratches the surface of the problems – disastrous problems – that SU5 has inflicted on the simulation, especially for users with high-end hardware.
What would be appreciated at this point, besides the announcement of hot fixes, is how in the name of God an update this horrifically buggy could EVER be released onto an unsuspecting user group. I’ve been using personal computers for 41 years, and I’ve never experienced or heard of a fiasco anywhere near this horrific.

Really? I’ve had 4 versions of X-plane, including v11, and it has NEVER had study level stock aircraft.

Where did you find this? I don’t see the actual post anywhere.
