This patch addresses a couple of minor interim issues, mainly a workaround for the flickering displays caused by an MSFS 2024 Sim Update 4 regression that has been logged by Asobo already. Another welcome improvement in this update, given current RAM prices, is the significantly better memory efficiency of our External Engine Model (XEM), which should deliver a modest performance boost on some systems. Incidentally, this is the first piece of ‘NEO’ work reaching you in the CEO, as we made several broad-spectrum enhan…

This is truely not intended to be any form of troll. Seriously. and fully sincere. Have been on this site since 1998 or 1999. When was it that Sierra Propilot was released. Was here prior to that. Having just reviewed the list of what was addressed in SU4, a year after 2024 release, and still having valued aircraft addons , sceneries, and liveries not yet fully compatible, all I can say is we are nearing what should have been MSFS 2026. Just look at that list. Have been an IBM PC owner/user and flight sim enthusiast since late 1981 and cannot recall any other software release of any kind over those years with a history like this. I appreciate what we have…

Not seen anyone mention this, but I assume that this is the aircraft update we were promised that were not updated in SU4.

At long, long, long long loooonnnnnnng last, the single most desirable, capable and functionally beautiful aircraft ever devised by man - and also possibly the greatest invention itself since the frozen burrito - is available for MSFS2020/2024. That's right, I'm talking about the American Champion Aircraft (ACA) 8GCBC Scout!!!! Longtime simmers with fond memories of the RealAir Scout package for FS2004 and FSX have been waiting for something to come along that could possibly come close to that package, and while this offering can't possibly be entirely 100% accurate to that product, it comes awfully dang close. Clearly this has been a labor of love by Hangar 713 St…

After installing SU4 and then going into the MSFS 2024 Content Library, I was honestly surprised by how many updates and downloads I was suddenly asked to install – I always prefer locally downloaded content over streamed content, so I went ahead and did them all. Afterwards, I ran Addon Linker’s Duplicate Check as usual. This time I noticed a huge number of duplicated items in my Official2024\OneStore folder: not just a few packages, but effectively every official scenery and every aircraft now appears twice – for example: asobo-aircraft-xyz + asobo-aircraft-xyz-temp , ms-aircraft-xyz + ms-aircraft-xyz-temp , asobo-airport-ABCD + asobo-airport-ABCD-temp , and simi…

I'm experiencing the following issue: I attempt to customize a surface wind from ground level up to 3,000 ft at 30 KTS crosswind. During rollout, I only see the wind at 15 KTS, and as it passes through about 1,000 ft, it gradually reaches 30 KTS. I wonder why this is happening. This was an issue in MSFS 2020 but not in MSFS 2024. We should be able to customize this. Is this new in V4?

After a year waiting for an update because the first release was very bad, with SU4 came the first update and !@#!#&?... now It's even worse than when they released it!!. I bought the premium deluxe only for this helicopter, what a waste of money and time. @SeedyL is really Microsoft/Asobo planning to improve this helicopter (and all the others included in MSFS24) in a near future?, because right now this is a very bad joke.

The good news is that via the Microsoft store, I picked up msfs 2020 on my credit card last Sunday the 7th. The bad news is this. I need to try and find the library folder so that I can then down load and install the sim onto my pc. But, I can't find that folder anywhere. Would you know where that folder is at? The good news is that while in my Microsoft account on the store, I see the MSFS 2020 link in my recent orders list. But, when I click on it, nothing happens. So, I don't think that's what I want. So, can you help me to find the library folder so that I then can down load and install 2020 Premium Deluxe? The reason why I…

Hello, I presently own beyondatc for ATC and traffic injection. While overall a great improvement over the default atc, there are shortcomings. One of my pet peeves is that the program doesn't always recognize the proper TRACON for certain airports. For example, KJFK is served by New York approach control, but beyondatc refers to it as Kennedy Approach. I've mentioned this on their discord site, but there doesn't seem to be any appetite on their part to provide any real improvement for such issues. Their are numerous other cases where the TRACON is either incorrectly identified, or in some cases, CENTER acts as the TRACON (e.g. KPIE, which is served by Tampa Approach…

How many of you are like me? As soon as I get a CPU upgrade, GPU upgrade or Sim update, instead of enjoying the performance gains, I gradually crank up the visual settings or add scenery until I lose them again. I've not done anything to SU4 yet, but I'm sure I probably will over the next few days 🙂 because I lock at 60 FPS with 2X FGR I will not notice any framerate gains, so smoothness is what I hope to see and it looks like from my early testing, things do look somewhat better i that department - until I start to tinker again 🙂

I have a new PC. How do I install MSFS 2024 (xBox version) on the new PC without uninstalling MSFS 2024 on the old PC (which will not be used)? The old PC will be a backup in case the new PC has issues.
