✈️ LIVE: Friday the 13th — MSFS 2024 SU5 Beta first look!

Hey pilots! 👨‍✈️👩‍✈️

Is it a lucky day or a cursed one? This Friday the 13th, we’re diving headfirst into the very first beta release of Sim Update 5 (SU5) for MSFS 2024. The timing is perfect—let’s see if this update is a treat or if the bugs are still haunting us.

🔍 The SU_05 “Hit List” We’ll be stress-testing the specific fixes and improvements labeled for this update in the bug tracker. Here is our primary flight plan for the stream:

  • FPS & VRAM Performance: Investigating the ongoing VRAM bug and performance degradation (In Progress – SU_04 & SU_05).
  • Navigation & POIs: Hunting for the missing city and town names.
  • The “Broccoli” Problem: A deep dive into whether photogrammetry trees are still ruining the low-altitude experience.
  • View-Change Stutters: Does switching cameras still cause a hitch? We’re putting it to the test.
  • Cessna C408 SkyCourier: Checking the condition levers to see if they are finally bindable for throttle quadrant users.

🎥 What’s on the Agenda?

  • Live stress tests in high-density areas (London/NYC).
  • Direct comparisons between SU4 performance and the SU5 Beta.
  • Aircraft-specific bug checks (focusing on the C408).
  • Open Q&A: I’ll be taking your “Does [X] work now?” requests live!
