The nordics update introduced, like every new patch, also new bug of different textures and texture LOD to load in depending on your flight level / distance to the ground. As far as i could test it the whole of north of germany is affected.
Update went smooth. But, as always, the sim freezes on market place downloads and updates. Had to restart it twice because of this. Not the end of the world by far. Servers get jammed (I’m tired, can’t stay up late for smooth sim anymore). I do understand the Xbox users will hopefully rectify this. Can’t have an online required sim without the horsepower. It’s getting close to do or die time for that. Looking fwd to, hopefully, some performance updates. Still gettin er done in full Ultra with LOD 7 Terain, and LOD 5 Objects.
found another one:
took me about 1,5h mapping the area in the north of Germany in which for some reason the ground texture keeps changing depending on you flightlevel,below 1300ft /distance to the ground.
Above this the texture is “fine” and only changes in LOD resolution depending on your hight, but below a completely different texture is loaded in.
Both the Denmark and the Iceland bush trip where stunning, had no problems whatsoever, except for a huge water dome at Akureyri in Iceland (RTX3090):
Have you tried removing the content of your community folder, and update the mods that you’ve in there afterwards?
I really want to enjoy this update but it’s been one of the worst for me. As a PC player, I appreciate the FPS increase but the graphics really regressed. Constant terrain LOD popping now. What annoys me even more is that all my control profiles (mouse, keyboard, joystick, yoke) broke and I have to re-assign them again. Camera controls are completely different now and it’s not possible to get back to the default view. The Xbox sacrifice seems to be bigger than expected. At least I didn’t have any CTDs so far which is a novel experience with any update
Thats what makes it so challenging Bwhahahaha ;p
4 CTD’s yesterday. 1 when resetting the USB cable on my Logitech joystick. 3 after multiple iterations of loading a flight departure location from world map and assigning a different plane (was trying to test out button issues with the mouse).
It just continues to get worse. Assignment of call sign and tail number disappear in customization dialog (no persistence). More issues with mouse interaction with switches and knobs in the cockpit. I’m at a loss to understand how obvious bugs slipped past QA. Almost guaranteed CTD on first selection of departure location on world map followed by “fly now”. I understand that there will be “exotic” bugs with any major release, but, ■■■■, did anyone do ANY quality control testing at all?
You know you are replying to the World Update 5 forum? Not the Sim Update?
