Hoping the CPU is better utilized!
“Optimization of main CPU thread” !
Hi folks,
This is a pre-emptive reminder that you can use this thread for posting general feedback and discussion about the SU4 beta, but please DO NOT post bug reports here. If you would like to report a bug in the beta, please create a dedicated thread for that issue (or upvote and contribute to an existing thread if one already exists) in the appropriate bug reporting subsection of the SU4 forums.
Thanks,
MSFS Team
Download was 3.41 GB on my PC (MS Store). Average download speed was ~ 113 Mbps. Update completed successfully. No changes were made to either my settings or (as far as I can tell in a quick check) my controls.
Just did a quick taxi and takeoff with Fenix A320 and this SU4. WOW WOW WOW. Smooth as butter with not one single stutter. We all know fps drops a little when we rolling down the runway, welp, at least for me, there is not a single dip in fps. It maintains FPS throughout the takeoff roll. I think Asobo finally found the secret sauce.
Can anyone check if the mouse acceleration bug has been fixed? I’m away from home and really curious. Thanks in advance.
Don’t you play with my heart like that
LOL. I’m telling you, it’s MUCH smoother and stutters are non existent for me. I tried with Ultra settings on 4k.
Menu and Marketplace was unusually smooth on Xbox Series X, so I decided to torture my console and load the A350 into KJFK, live weather, live traffic, PG on.
Poor thing got hammered so hard that the audio started to crackle - but hey, LOD culling seems a lot less aggressive! The stutters are also way less frequent. If this is the direction Asobo is pursuing, I can’t wait to see what’s in store for us.
(Fun sidenote: Plane loads in with completely drained batteries and engine oil - a small inconvenience, solved with two clicks. If that’s the tradeoff for this new performance boost, I’m all in.)
(EDIT: Okay, ground geometry LOD seems overly aggressive at times - the runway at KSEA folds and bends like a carpet being rolled out… Gonna have another look tomorrow to see if other airports are affected, too.)
PMDG 777s are broken but that is the usual on a new SU update
Rex atmos i broken as well
Absolutely huge list of fixes! Hoping this lets us close the main thread issue thread for good!
Can anyone please test if you bind a key to PARKING BREAK ON
or PARKING BRAKE OFF
if this binding will finally work? Only PARKING BRAKE TOGGLE
binding did work so far
Did a quick test in EGLL from inibuilds. This airport used to have a few annoying stutters. Now I get no stutters at all. It still is FPS hungry but the FPS maintains smooth all the way. I’m in the green throughout the whole taxi and roll on takeoff. Panning views is smooth.
No improvements in VRAM usage?
Having an unusual installation experience here - having built a new PC in recent weeks, I was surprised this evening to find I’d been unenrolled in the MSFS2024 Beta in the XBox Insiders Hub app. I enrolled, rebooted my PC and the XBox App dutifully informed me I had an update. I updated, then tried to load the sim. The sim itself now tells me I need an update and appears to be installing the entire 8.1GB sim.
This will be fun to un-screw-up.
EDIT: After completion, it’s now “updating” for a third time.
Just tried it.
Seems a lot smoother, in the menus and little in-game.
I was waiting for fixes on ICON A5 but unfortunately it got worse. Annunciator lights are now messed up - . LAND AIRCRAFT now lights always when the aircraft is on the ground without any mechanical issue along with ALTERNATOR…. GPS is still BLACK at night even with full brightness.
The livery is too dirty in the canopy…… Definitely ICON A5 still needs a lot of work.
“Realistic” turbulence effect……still terrible.
Waiting for the next update…..
Can anyone test if the menu saves the Frame Rate Multiplier? Was an issue in SU3.
Can someone who flies them in real life test the new physics of the 172s?
I can’t run it. “I need an internet connection.” Obviously I have one. I’ve updated the game and I’m posting on the forum.
Anyone else having the same problem?
