General SU5 Beta Feedback Thread

Just tried to see if some of my complaints had been fixed but no, mid winter here in France but trees as green as summer, some major airports still showing just as helipads so cannot fly aircraft from them. And my local city is shown with snow but none here for two weeks. Disappointed so far.

As I raised these issues as bugs before do I need to raise them again under SU5 Beta?

This is the main reason I don’t add the betas anymore.

Saw the release notes. Quiet underwhelming so far given the wait for the BETA:

  • Don’t see any Wishlist feature added
  • AMD FSR3 not updated to 3.15
  • EDDK and LFPG still have bugs.

Hoping for better in the coming SU beta releases. Will sure subscribe if its worth then!

First impression. Whenever I hover the mouse over an interactive item, it gets highlighted in blue despite the fact that I am in the legacy cockpit interaction system. It started with SU5. Double checked, my settings are unchanged. I do not want these toy-like features but there is no way to disable it in SU5 right now.

Second, I cannot click ā€œCONFIGUREā€ in the aircraft selection, I have no other option than to press F to get to the aircraft config. Rolling back to SU4.

Still experiencing panning stutters in airliners as that’s what I fly 99.99% of the time at major 3rd party and handcrafted airports. Especially in the cockpit quite poor. There’s a minor issue with mouse freezing for a second everytime I move the cursor. Camera panel has to be reopened because I can’t click on the minimize or expand. Mini freezes occur upon landing due to loading objects still. Honestly no positive difference from SU4 so far for me

EDIT: I’m not sure if this is the reason but when I set dynamic setting to on and Frame limit to 60, panning view seems very smooth exterior. Inside the cockpit also became very smooth although there was very minor stutter at first then panned 360 again and was smooth as silk. This is at Glideslope Pro’s KLAS with MSFS AI live traffic using pmdg 737-800. Before the SU5 beta this KLAS was stuttery not sure if it improved due to SU5 or because Glideslope update couple of days ago. Also the camera panel works fine again. All this after setting limit and restarting MSFS

Whatever you do, DO NOT enable DEV mode in SU5 Beta with frame gen enabled. It will crash your sim and prevent you from being able to boot up the game indefinitely.

Solution: Disable FG in User.cfg file by replacing it with ā€œNONEā€ then boot into the game and disable Dev mode. Then resume as normal.

Try editing the series.opt file to turn off developer mode

I’ve enabled it and it worked ok.

It will break it if you have DLSS FG active. Just tested it. Edited my post. Disabling FG in user.cfg lets me back in to disable DEV mode.

Right, I was using TAA.

I though at first glance that VR settings reset to ā€œmediumā€ each time I reload FS2024. But in fact I was wrong ! The settings are displayed as ā€œmediumā€ in the VR settings windows in 2D. But when you switch to VR, open the VR settings and you will find your customized settings are there :slight_smile:

TAA and frame generation are not the same thing. TAA refers to the type of anti-aliasing used by the sim. Frame generation may be either DLSS (thank Nvidia for the confusing name) or FSR.

To be fair, both NVIDIA (DLSS) and AMD (FSR) offer both Anti-Aliasing and Frame Generation… so it’s easy to get confused.

Asobo is tinkering with Frame Gen, and FSR on NVIDIA cards, which is really needed and appreciated by those of use with 3 screens. A few things are buggy with the changes, but I hope the work continues.

Sounds like an underwhelming SU beta so far at best. Combined with the lack of what seems like proper long standing issue fixes and lack of quality of life improvements im hopping back on the 2020 train. Asobo should have never been rewarded for the 20→24 to begin with.

I know that. I was just informing.

Seriously? Wow that’s really confusing.
