REF: What they appear to have done with the AP, is to FUDGE it, by doubling its speed of response.
This enables it now to better keep up with the slower “Dolphin effect” of the unstable Dynamic Pitch, and thus reduce it faster.
But the basic issue is still there… Flight Model has unstable Dynamic Pitch.
Same issue here, been having it since 1.9.3.
Judging by the pace of actual flight simulator and avionics fixes in this game, I would be surprised if it gets fixed before xmas.
Just completed a flight from KJFK - LFPG. Took off around 7:30 AM sim time and landed around 8:30 PM sim time. Smoother performance on ultra and some high in 4k.Taking off through the forecast was gorgeous and of course the infamous lightning. Broke through the clouds at about 8,000 ft and what a breath taking view. Descended in the evening with broken clouds, beautiful evening lighting over the city. Approaching runway 27L on downwind deactivated the autopilot and brought that baby down nicely and a beautiful view of the airport and runway. Landing FPS was smooth. Taxi to the gate was heavy on the system, still low FPS 4k just waiting for an updated optimized airport. Other than that it was great, clouds looked really good, night lighting really good, sky colors really good, pretty much everything looked and performed really good aside from LFPG performance. The FCU never went blank on the 787 even with the mod.
Thank you Asobo, slowly but surely we are getting there. Appreciate ya’ll homies! And the community for your continuous contribution with the mods!
No problem with download. Removed all mods from community folder. Closed game after upload. Started game, it asked for the disk??? Closed it, restarted and it opened fine.
Went to map, picked departure and arrival airports, setup ILS flight plan, selected A320Neo. Turned on battery, connect ground power, turn APU master on, APU start.
None of the displays work, and the APU never goes to available.
Exited game and started again, no change.
Yes, that’s what I did. I only have liveries there. I cleared the folder and the content manager opened fine, updated a couple of files tehre and then placed the liveries back to the community folder.
You would have to restart the flight once or few times to get the overhead panels active. I think there’s something from the livery folders or the mod conflicting with the A320.
Well, never had an issue with updating until this patch. But here’s what caused it for me. I failed to empty my Community folder and had the issue with the Content Manager not loading anything as a result. Fair enough. My mistake.
So, before I realized my failure, I went to Steam and validated my install files, which should just be the wrapper for the sim. They validated fine. Went back into the sim and Content Manager was still not displaying any content. Just a twirling icon. Then it dawned on me, I forgot to empty my Community folder. I shut down the sim, emptied my Community folder, and restarted the sim. I was greeted with a 97.87 GB download. Nice! So, even after applying the update successfully, after validating my files on Steam and emptying my Content folder, I, your customer, am punished by your delivery/distribution platform. Really, Asobo?
Asobo, you really need to get your distribution platform squared up. It is ridiculous to have to download the entire sim again just because perhaps one or two files were potentially corrupted. Even worse, because so many are going through this, the download is painfully slow, taking up tremendous amounts of power and electricity to pull your sim in its entirety for no reason at all. We’re not living in 1999 ya know! Azure needs some serious work. I know, I’m an Azure engineer at work. LOL! I should have known that this would be the same, but I digress.
It’s been well over an hour now and all I have pulled is 10GB. And yes, I’ am now caught in the FS-Base Patch loop. You need to fire your distribution platform engineers. If he works for MS, You better get your butts on the phone pronto and escalate the hell out of this. Because it WILL kill this game. NO ONE is going to buy it. Bad reputations stick in the gaming community. Just my advice.
If I halted production at work because of a bonehead move like this, I’d be shown the door promptly. The strain you guys are putting on your platform is your own fault with this kind of thing going on. I loathe the patches now. I truly do.
Major regression with the A320 neo. They broke managed speed mode so you can no longer let the airplane manage speeds; you have to set them yourself. The airplane is also now very difficult to handle below 140 KIAS. Basically, they took the one airliner that was working reasonably well and saddled it with all of the bugs that were formerly confined to the 787-10.
[EDIT] Suddenly things are back working for me again. Maybe the bug is intermittent and possibly coincidental to my installing the patch, but after a couple of consecutive flights where the aircraft was uncontrollable, it is back to behaving properly again. I removed my comment about the patch making things worse because apparently it was premature.[EDIT]
So I experienced the same exact thing with Content Manager clocking. Luckily I came here and stumbled on your post (perfect timing sitting here at the end of a 742 post thread ).
I had no idea you had to clear the Community folder as part of updating.
I quit the Sim (as you did) and deleted the two folders I had in there.
I restarted the Sim and was cringing when it got to the “Checking for Updates” part but relief quickly was felt when I got the Main Menu.
I then checked Content Manager for the final test and everything pulled up as expected.
I am not running the Steam version, I am running the MS Store version.
Sorry for your issues friend, but this may be a Steam specific thing. Good luck with resolving and thanks for the fix (for me at least).
Yes. Tried to start a flight at the gate in Denver. Instant CTD. I have now uninstalled this game and I am going back to FS9. I am so glad I did not pay for this ■■■■. Well except for the XBox for PC pass. Each so called patch has made the sim worse. I’m done.
