Discussion + Poll: Sim Update VIII (1.23.12.0)

When you get in developer mode you have to select window / console press the button to clear the console then go back into the game, or it wont work. But you’ll also loose your log entries since you went into dev mode.

Nothing fancy.

OC i5-9600k @ 4.8.
RTX 3080
32 GB DDR4 @ 3200
Win 10
Running SIM @ 1440p with 100 render scaling

I just follow the settings guide in the forums here only community folder stuff I have is liveries.

Smooth as I’m happy.

Hello all,

especially to Navigraph users but I apeal to also other users using sim NAV AIRAC DB. Check pls your RNAV approach and also arrival sequence functionality. Now to Navigraph problem with last AIRAC 2 update. Today I returned previous version of AIRAC and all is working correctly, RNAV app at LZIB rwy31 is correctly defined and also LZTT RNAV rwy09 so problem have Navigraph with last update 2 probably. pls guys from Navigraph, I see many mistakes and wrong definitions inside many options, do pls corrections as soon as possible, is simply problem with synchro about charts and possible differencies with NAV DB in this case.

Bush trips are still a hot mess. Some legs won’t complete. VR map route and nav guide content sometimes just disappears. It would be nice if features included with the sim actually worked.

For me, on xbox series x, the sim is much smoother even in high clutter areas and the ground textures appear much more detailed. Also looks like they fixed the way the auto gen buildings look (for the better). It’s running great and looks amazing.

After the SU8 update, both the ground textures and the vegetation are displayed much too dark. Not always but more often. Then more and more lighter ground texture tiles pop up one after the other. What could be the reason for this?

Just noticed that the plane and buildings are totally overexposed in the sunshine

I assume you don’t play the game with ultra settings. I have exactly the same rig as yours just with a slight difference in processor which is i7-10700K but I have never seen over 60 with FBW. In fact, my average FPS would be around 42.

Same here, I noticed a little performance degradation with SU8.
I only fly A32nx experimental build and Aerosoft CRJ.

I have fps locked in 35 in NCP
Low latency mode: Ultra in NCP
GPU power management : balance

I didn’t change any settings in Nvidia control panel after the update.
My sim runs a bit more laggy after the update.

Me too, I had better performance on SU7

Is it possible to install the SU8 Update again, and how can I do it?

Reinstall msfs.

sadly, there are still CTDs (and stuttering/low fps) after SU8 …

Xbox series x - CTD halfway during downloading the updates in game.

I can understand the arguments surrounding issues on the PC and hardware variety, but the Xbox is a closed system which MS control, it is a known entity.

There is really no excuse for the ongoing problems encountered on the Xbox.

Can only assume Asobo are completely out of their depth - they should have stuck to Disney titles.

Edited to add: Also the most ridiculously tortuous update process I have ever experienced for any game or application on any console ever. Why is it like this - is it to work around some fundamental flaw in the software’s design? Because it certainly is not to enhance the user experience.

mine stuttering as well …

Also had performance issues after su8. Lower fps and stuttering. And the vfr map doesn’t open.

Just curious, I see some people fly in developer mode. Is there any advantage to this?

Developer mode only fixes the spinning white circle for your session, and makes your having a log file for that flight non-existant. It doesnt appear to fix anything performance wise.

I came out of the beta a few days before the update. My performance seems worse. I was getting 34 FPS and no stuttering, now I am seeing 24 and drops into the teens, with some stuttering.
I also did something wrong with how I did the beta and the update - I lost my progress on bush flights. But that’s on me. I guess I will go see Australia again!

aha … I am wondering about the GTUI thread… it is a huge difference… can you post your settings to check out please :slight_smile:

greets Klaus

Hello,

oooh just discovered one very nice update of TBM :slight_smile: upper sun glare shields are perfect! Very apreciate. If I can say here definitely after next test flights, WTG3000 v0.7.7 working to me good with SU8. Navigraph AIRAC I use 02 Update 1 because Update 2 looks not correct with many wrong data.

My experience this far has not been very positive… stability has taken a huge step backward, as has performance.

I am 50/50 in being able to fly without a CDT or a hard lock-up, doesn’t really matter where I attempt to launch from. Extremely frustrating…

Gone through my normal routine of troubleshooting (Rolling back nvidia drivers, nuking cache, checking / reset settings, etc) NO change.

/sigh…
