[Polls] Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Sim Update 1 Feedback

Just change it back to whatever you had it set at.

Thanks but what would be optimal value. I have high end PC

One thing I noticed after the SU1 update: my 30 GIG Rolling Cashe was set to zero and pointed to the folder. After rebuilding the Rolling Cashe folder everything went smooth in terms of performance and graphics. (still many bugs though)

Launching MSFS24 kills my internet. Any fixes?

Nobody can really tell you that; it depends on what and where you fly. Basically, you have to start with a setting and tweak based on performance. If you have a high end PC, then TLOD of 200 is a reasonable place to start.

Thank you. Will try.

Remembering last weather preset is broken again :frowning: thanks for updates though

Rolling cache didn’t get set back to 0 this time so that’s good

There is no Market place

The jets are still “unflyables”

Flight planning in EFB It’s still full of mistakes

Navigraph subscribers still can’t use the service in the sim (Xbox)

Career mode is still broken

Photogrammetry and the “generated” terrain are still a mess

Many of the bugs are still there

Loading times are ridiculous

Now it’s much more unstable (yes
 although it seemed impossible)

The fps went down even more

The question now is
 was it an update or a downgrade to beta mode?

At least for dignity
 explain that it was “this” after 4 months of waiting

I have found that the problem of a flight failing to load is unrelated to Update 1. In my experience it is a general MSFS problem that occurs on MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024 before update 1. It usually manifests itself when using new content in your community folder, either a new livery, or a new aircraft. I used to get this problem all the time when I created a new livery. I also had this problem reported to me when someone downloaded one of my liveries and tried to load it into a flight, even though the same livery loaded successfully on my PC.

Sometime removing content from your community folder can get around the issue, but it usually returns after all your previous content is added back in. Rebooting sometimes fixed the problem, but usually not.

The permanent solution I found was to run a little utility to clear all the various caches Nvidia and Windows uses. Since using this utility I have never had this problem return, ever. Also every user of my liveries who had the problem were able to load the livery into a flight after running this utility.

I think of it like getting your car serviced to keep it healthy. So I run this periodically to keep MSFS healthy.

Markedly worse graphics performance than base package and even latest Beta. My bird of choice (747-8) was untouched in this update (and it needs more than a “touch”). Even though I do not want the external visual flight path (white brackets) and turned it off, it persists. EFB still pretty useless. Back to 2020 until beta for update 2 comes out.

Just a warning - on the referenced website, there is a less optimistic view of using the tweak in FS2024:

**Does this support MSFS2024?**
*No, and it will not be added since MSFS2024 will be likely very unstable 
 without constantly available cache due to its cloud-based architecture*

Zooming out helped me.


Select departure

Zoom out until the airport icons disappear

Click Start flight.

I’m running on a high spec system (4090 and 9800x3d). Why is the VR performance still terrible? I shouldn’t have to turn settings down to make this playable not after spending $129 on this buggy software.

Flight planning in free flight is now totally broken for me. I create flight plans in directly in EFB and on the online tool at https://planner.flightsimulator.com/ which I then save and load into EFB. There is now no chart showing a route. The flight plan loads into avionics about 50% of the time, and when it does, it is runways and waypoints only, no altitudes. NAV and LNAV buttons do not work in any aircraft I have tried to use due to the bad flight plan. That includes various Airbus, Boeing, Embrauer and Cesna jets. This is something that actually worked part of the time in the initial release but now is fully broken with the update. There are many other things still broken but I’ll limit this post to this one particular problem.

Says it only works on 2020. This one works on both 2020 and 2024

I should add that saved flight plans loaded into EFB do not actually load. I get “Loading” and an eternal spinner, but it locks up. I can only create a plan natively in the sim. Also it is necessary to “File with ATC” before and after you start the flight because it often does not remember the destination, route and runway. Sometimes it doesn’t remember the starting location and dumps you over the ocean.

Works every time. Thanks for letting us know. :+1:
