[/p][p]Over the past week, we released three new pre-release test builds, two for
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 Sim Update 3 and one for
Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020) Sim Update 16. You can read the release notes for these builds linked below:[/p]
[p]We are very closely monitoring reports from community testers about an increase in crashes to desktop (CTDs) in SU3 beta build 1.5.10.0. Based on player feedback thus far, these crashes appear to be related to using third-party mods which use the SimConnect API. To assist the development team in troubleshooting and resolving this issue, we encourage SU3 beta testers to post their findings about which mods/add-ons seem to cause the CTD
in this forum thread.[/p][p]Yesterday on
our official Twitch channel, we hosted a technical expert from Pimax to answer your VR questions plus several popular VR YouTubers (
Tally Mouse,
VR Flight Sim Guy,
theVRpilot, and
Skyraider79er, a real-world Airbus A320 captain) to demonstrate flying
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 in VR mode! If you missed the session live, you can re-watch the VOD
at this link.[/p][p]As a final reminder, Pimax is currently offering a 5% discount on the purchase of a Pimax Crystal Light or Crystal Super VR headset if you use code
