Knocking on wood, might have found some work arounds for the new patch

So, Just like every one else, I updated my MSFS (cause it forced me to do so) and my sim went to p**p ! so here’s what I did:

  • Uninstalled the whole sim, and deleted all cache files from my computer.
  • Did a total disk cleanup of the drive in which the sim was previously installed
  • I have the sim on steam , So I also had to remove it from steam/ steamapps file. (in my case this file is located on a different drive from the one where my sim was installed).
  • Reinstalled the sim… Yeah It took me 3 hours to redownload the whole 110gb.
  • Did a first check ride on the sim in a vanilla state (Community file was completely clean).
  • Cessna Citation Longitude - did a 3 hours flight, aside from the fuel glitch on that airplane, there was no bug since the cold and dark start and the whole flight went smooth with fully working avionics.
  • Did a second check ride on the b787, flew from Tokyo Haneda to Shanghai Pudong, took me 4 hours, flight went also smooth, no issue, except 787 MCP was black.
  • Reinstalled all the addon liveries from the google drive.
  • Reinstalled the A32NX MOD
  • Reinstalled the B787 MOD.
  • Now flying the A32NX for 1.5 hour no glitch, no issue, kept the APU on, the engines did not turn off.

going forward, i’ll keep doing more tests, if things go wrong, i’ll keep you posted.

Cheerio

So basically the fresh install was the patched version?

Suddenly got a flashback from P3D v5 HF2…

I did fresh install. Unfortunately some patch problems still here:
-live weather doesn’t work for second flight and later;
-sensivity tuning screen doesn’t work.

What 787 mod are you using?

I’m having the same issues with the 787 MCP being black - did a fresh install - the first time I loaded the 787 ALL the screens were black. When I shut down FS and put the 787 EX mod back in the community folder then I got the rest of the screens back but the MCP was still black.

For the weather, make sure you check the setting once your second flight has loaded. For some reason ok subsequent flights it’ll reset to scattered or something similar.

No mod, just default 787.

Yes, I know this “feature” and everytime at start new flight I press “Live” button at left bottom of window.
