November 30th, 2023 Development Update Blog Discussion

Check out the latest Development Update here:

Please use this thread for feedback and discussion. Thank you!

Thank you so much for inncluding transcripts of the dev streams! I find these much easier to consume, both in a ā€œskimmingā€ fashion and for detailed reads, than the video recordings. It’s a huge help in feeling like I’m caught up with goings-on. :slight_smile:

Thanks for the marketplace update. I really missed the latest round of mscenery & night scene enhanced spam. I don’t think I could’ve made it through another week without a fix

It feels good to know I’m not the only one who thinks like this.

I’m thrilled to see the PMDG suite’s updates have finally arrived.

However, I had to call a waaaaaambulance, because these updates are already behind the non-Marketplace versions!

:sob:

Well the m500 makes it to Xbox. Curiously I see the supercarrier pro shows a Xbox update because it don’t think it’s available for it???

And the SR22 update, is that out or what?

Yep, in beta testing right now :slight_smile:

Agreed! I’m not sure who’s doing the transcriptions now, but give them a raise. (Don’t say it’s an AI bot…)

Not an AI bot! The transcription was completed by hand by my wonderful colleague @Jummivana! :heart:

I’d like to highlight this bit:

I was watching the stream and I’d already noticed that we were getting much better updates on real issues than is typical, then Jorg said that.

Negative feedback always comes but I’d like to make sure this positive improvement is recognised, I really appreciated the more dev focused style of this update. In particular, there were useful updates on a number of key issues that have been typically ignored, some have been going on for years and we finally got some answers about what state of progress they are in.

I really hope this new focus is not a one off and that we can expect more like this in the future, thanks team!

Jayne is the best!

FSR500 is amazing! Well worth the wait and Raul’s attention to detail and love for this sim is beyond what I’ve ever experienced!

Had made me forget about any of the PMDG updates not making it to Xbox!
Will have to take the DC6 out this weekend and see how she fares with the updated Gyro.

This was the DC-6 update? I wasn’t sure what was included in this patch.

Wait orbx London City upgrade costs more than the bade pack? How is that possible?

It’s confusing but the upgrade costs 10.49 USD. So instead of 17.99 for both V1 and V2, if you have V1 you can bundle V2 for 10.49 (and uninstall V1).

It’s confusing because they posted V2 separate and as a bundle for some reason in the blog (and I think in the marketplace), but if you have V1 then the bundle is the version you want.

EDIT: Updated the prices since I had the wrong info previously.

Hi,

Yes I agree a nod to the more technical and descriptive Q&A is better, the previous ones were too marketing based and they lost their meaning. That’s not too say we shouldn’t have any more of those, as no doubt they are handy for the company to advertise stuff. But more Q&As like this one in the future will be great.
Thanks

Hi,

I just noticed in the transcript in the section about fixing past regressions it’s missing ā€˜VR’, Jorg mentioned this directly in the stream and I think it needs adding as this is an important area that requires attention still. So users reading the transcript may think it wasn’t mentioned when it was.

Thanks

Good to hear the news about ground handling and Seb’s videos were impressive. I’m wondering if this will work with water handling too and what differences we might expect???

One little correction , it is spelled Kosice , not Kiche :slight_smile: ,
also where is Bratislava ? (capital of Slovakia and only missing TIN capital in CEE)

The dev streams are great! It really is impressive how far the sim has come in a few short years! The difference in running XP11 with a Rift S when I was training for my PPL, to now staying current with MSFS in a Varjo Aero is staggering. It’s easy to forget where we have come from, and overlook the appreciation step.

I’m headed to do some autorotations in the Cabri so I can define my helicopter flight model critiques further. This sim just keeps improving!

I’m loving the new colours of the world. Thank you always for doing this stream. I’m looking forward to all the fixes and updates. I had a really good comment in my mind, but I’m so old I forgot it. Anyway. Thanks to all. Future looks good for 2020 and keen to get 2024.
