Putting this build on live while rolling out any further fixes onto the beta branch was a very good decision. I would have been pretty cheesed if we’d have to wait for 1.9.22 to go through flighting before getting drag sorted, but that’s not the case so cheers for that.
This update is no different to me really than SU7 on Xbox Series X. I’m getting about the same smooth performance as before, maybe even slightly better. I never noticed the drag issue on SU7 as I mostly fly the PMDG 737 which was never affected anyway. Will probably do a long haul tonight in the A350 to test but all seems good so far.
(Please do not ping CM’s) I saw in the release notes that the battery was changed and the apu section was updated but there is still a problem with the 737 I feel like I’m missing something I just updated to the new build I’m on ps5 is there any info that you can share that this has been resolved on the coming 1.9.22.0 update for the beta later today or no info yet?
Terrible, had nothing but issues since the update. last update everything was fine, now its unplayable with CTD’S constant and without warning. using a pc with ge-force 4080 super and i9-14900k proccesor, 64gb ram and 1TB of storage. Was really enjoying the career mode but its crazy, crashes all the time now, i had a runway of about 300ft!!! not 3000+meters like the charts gave.
The ghosting seems to be getting worse as is the stuttering. just a total dissapointment and making me regret throwing thousands of dollars into this!!
Just did a quick flight in the IndiaFoxtEcho F-35 with SU7.1 (1.9.21.0) and interestingly enough I cannot get it to mach 1 . No stuttering, mainthread/GPU issues or CTD’s - all is very smooth with good fps.
Never had any issues in the past with getting this jet past mach 1 and now even if I point it down a little with the help of decreasing altitude, a tail wind & afterburners I still can’t get it to/past mach 1. Note - worked fine in 1.9.18.0 SU7 official release but I never tested with the SU7.1 beta 1.9.20.0 and SU7.2 (1.9.22.0) is not available to me yet.
I don’t know the answer to that with certainty, but I will go out on a limb to say, no. Here’s why. I made a post earlier regarding the T6 Texan models that they updated to 2024. You can’t even do a proper walk around to preflight the models. Yes you can walk around them, but you can’t check any of the controls. It’s basically like walking around them in 2020. Also here is the biggest insult to injury regarding the Texan models. There was an AWESOME third party mod that allowed you to open/close the canopy, it updated the flight characteristics, sound, etc. Yeah the mod was excellent and got 5 stars. SU7 broke the mod. How ironic! Their update seemed to make their own models 2020ish as opposed to 2024ish which is what the mod did. It’s just baffling to me how much effort or little they put into this update. In my opinion they didn’t check much on these models, or many of the others for that fact. Seems like they had a deadline to meet as opposed to getting things right for their own community.
I think, it might be helpful for the devs, if you could tell which ones are affected? See, the market place is full of 3rd party aircraft. To track the issue down, they’ll need examples.
FYI, it’s now being reported by third party developers, with examples, in the devsupport forum. So I think the issue with supersonic flight in some aircraft is now on the Asobo’s developers radar.
