last version B717 on XBOX - mistakes?

hi Captain sim, I really like the level of detail and the look of the b717 but my overall impression is spoiled by a few bugs:

1) the pilot is now not visible from the outside? The copilot is only visible from the outside when activated with the visibility switch from the inside.

2) The open window in the cockpit is shown as closed from the outside and can be opened with impunity even at high altitude. The same goes for the emergency exits on the wings Smiley

3) The optimization on XBOX could probably be improved a bit..I experienced a few game crashes or a "white death" for the right EICAS display. The wipers sometimes also mysteriously stop working. Is this a simulated failure when starting without rain or mistake?

Please do not take this as a criticism but as a warning of minor bugs. I am very excited about this aircraft! The level of detail is surprising and the aircraft deserves a high rating.

My secret wish:
could it be possible to make functional sun visors too?
Considering the capabilities of the model, an EFB tablet would be suitable..Cool

Thanks for the feedback, we really appreciate it!

Pilots and window - we'll put that on our bug list.

The optimization on Xbox - this display is very complex, and it displays over a dozen complex aircraft systems, and if you could tell us which system exactly crash occurs in, that would be very helpful.

Your secret wish, unfortunately 2024 only for now and still unreleased.

Hi, thank you very much for the quick feedback and positive response. I will try to find out which system is causing the white screen. Wink

Regarding 2024, I apologize for asking but do you perhaps have an estimated date range for when we might expect fs2024 support? Obviously not expecting nor requesting any concrete date as of course you all are hard at work and probably constantly running into more and more obstacles to overcome. I was just wondering if there was any kind of estimate or current phase of progress in the work to be done for it to be fully supported in fs2024.

Thank you so much.
Austin
