Discussion + Poll: Sim Update V (1.18.13.0)

You are right - I think they fixed / added more bandwidth as it just resumed with good speeds again just now (or a lot of folks finished their updates and opened up a seat for me :slight_smile: ).

Edit. Downlaod finished but: :slight_smile:

LOL or maybe they all said screw this I’ll try again tomorow …

I give up. Still haven’t make it off the ground yet. It’s either CTD, complete freeze up of the sim forcing me to have to restart, and just now, my plane crashed with ā€œdamage to your gearā€ while advancing out of my parking spot at under 10 kts.

I’ll try again another day. This is too frustrating right now.

Relogin into MS net and Xbox and that might go away.

The release notes are rather disappointing, not a single Bug Fix in sight, surely not every single coder was working on the performance were they?

Where does it give me 50% more FPS?! I’ve not even finished downloading yet (and I highly doubt I’ll get that much of a boost), fact is gaming software developers of this size (and much smaller) work on multiple areas at once, hence why I find it strange that there’s no Bug Fix list which would normally of been posted.

You clearly haven’t been following the news man. Just wait and see. Numerous users have already reported that their fps have doubled

If I get 50% more fps with a 2070Super and in VR I will come to your house and lick your face!

Anyone else’s FPS display showing 0.0 ms for GPU?

I’m curious if this is because I am remoted into my computer via TeamViewer?

Then I say no thank you now because I don’t want that to happen. Thanks for the offer though.

Mine may not finish today either haha

you can set that speed tho.

Be careful, you may regret making this promise :smiley:

The performance improvements are real… I’ve seen over 50% improvement in some places, and now I can fly in 4K Ultra which was simply impossible before (i have a 3070)

I hope you see a massive improvement as well

Is it stuck downloading the same file over and over again? You may need to pause the update, close the sim, delete any partial .part or .patch files from the packages folder and restart the sim. I’ve done this countless times already today.

Still downloading here in France. I have the Super deluxe versionto update and mine says 40.29Gb but in the middle of the screen is a picture and it say Mandatory Update 22.92Gb
Any ideas, going to be at least 24 hours here…

Ran out of space on your drive? Make sure you empty your recycle bin! Gigabytes of files can be left there! I cleared half my entire pc just in that little step!

You are lucky, my speed at the moment is 3.23Mb

Well that’s a shame, it’s nice to know what’s been fixed and what hasn’t. I find it strange that they have to ā€œgatherā€ all the information, surely the bug reporting system lists the Fixed items which can be easily entered into a Bug List thereafter. Again Asobo doing things backwards!
