Finally! SU4 added a Splash Screen!

Good deal!

BTW, it’s comforting to know that there are those like you with hardware specs lower than mine even, who are still able to have a decent experience with this flight simulator. It’s all about compromise, isn’t it?

I may be wrong, but, especially given the interface design… I’m 99.9999% positive it was designed as an XBox game from Day one. I imagine they released on PC to use us to debug the game before the XBox launch. I imagine they were pleasantly surprised by how well the launch went on PC and how involved the community is in helping them develop the product. A true crowd-sourcing development project, not unlike Minecraft…

Interesting… I had the slash screen for a few launches but now I don’t see it anymore.

I’m not sure if we should celebrate this.

I’m afraid the splash-screen will be used for commercial purposes. Nothing wrong with trying to show your product but before you know it there will be a time-delay before the Sim can resume loading.

Wish I did, but I don’t know. Think I got off topic a little?

I got used to it.. It is also nice to be able to fly MSFS sitting in the garden or on the balcony, without any plugs attached to my laptop. When I switch on the FpS report in MSFS I see 15-24 FpS, and 10FpS over big cities. I’ve set 80% rendering resolution, no anisotropic filtering, 80% LOD and 2x2 texture.. other things are Medium settings, light effects and lens flare are switched off. Cockpit update rate Low. When I make a screenshot I pump it all up.. :yum: in normal flight, I’ve 16-19Fps everywhere and I’m happy with that. Seen worse ! just after WU III Great Britain my framerate went 12-16 which is inconvenient. For me the two last updates were really good. Especially the last one. My frame rate stays low as before, but the regular stutters I got seem to have disappeared.

Yep, here too.

The splash screen got produced by ‘GamingServicesUI’, not by the sim. And ‘GamingServicesUI’ isn’t starting up anymore. No more splash screen…

No splashscreen here - Store version. I use FSUIPC though which gives me another shortcut that adds their own splashscreen

Finally! SU4 added a Splash Screen!

It was a 48 hour beta release… :wink:

So I am confused. The Splash screen we had was not added by Asobo/Microsoft update? Was it automatically activated when the sim was connected to internet?

Pity. It was useful.

I think it had something to do with windows security and the Windows Defender Application Guard… Perhaps after windows security did what it needed to do the splash screen stopped. Perhaps this will happen with other games in the future, not sure.

I mean, you should see a spinning circle around your mouse cursor when you launch the title? This could be seen as a identifier to you launching MSFS.

I see the splash screen too, after updating OS to 21h1. very nice. thank you

Enjoy it while it lasts…
