Microsoft Launches New MSFS 2024 Update

Microsoft recently issued a new update to their newly released Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, bringing a series of stability, performance fixes, and minor SDK tweaks.

Update 1.1.10.0 – the second update since release so far – fixes a crash when navigating fast between the challenges, mitigates an issue with adjusting Tobii Eye Tracker settings in the menu, and addresses various crashes that were reported by the users.

Furthermore, the update fixes the floating jetway issue that has plagued the simulator since its release. It also corrects the unloading and reloading of WASM gauges upon restarting a flight.

The complete changelog for the update follows below:

Stability & Performance

  • Fixed a crash that could occur when navigating fast between the challenges.
  • Fixed a crash when trying to adjust Tobii Eye Tracker hardware in the settings menu.
  • Fixed various crashes.

General Bug Fixes

  • Fixed remaining broken jetways.
  • Updated the message asking the player to link the Steam account.
  • Fixed unloading/reloading of WASM gauges upon restarting a flight.

SDK

JS API

  • Traffic GUID object was broken due to the value being encoded in 64 bits which can not be handled in Javascript. The value is now in 32 bits.

Aircraft

  • Fixed impact damage threshold for the contact points of the basket that was causing a back-on-track loop that hardlocked the game for hot air balloon and FlyDOO.

Aircraft tech

Model behavior

  • Fixed a crash when hovering interactions only defining an event_id and a tooltip (backward compatibility with FSX simple interactions).

Flow/Progression

  • Fixed a bug when leaving flight while in slew mode.

MyLibrary

  • Added tags on disabled items to better reflect why they are disabled.
  • Added a tag to warn the player if an item has not been verified by the creator.

The update is available right now on Steam and Microsoft Store.
