TBM850 in 2024
-
I have been flying the TBM850 in 2024 and mostly it goes very well. Unfortunately it has a few small issues. When flying the TBM in dense scenery I get some stutters and the aircraft registration lettering is a bit "flaky" and the auto pilot makes some wide turns where the FP takes a sharp corner, although that might be a 2024 AP issue. I realise this version was not created for 2024 but I'm posting for others to know how it might perform until a proper 2024 version arrives. I've tested one other well known third party 2020 aircraft, in 2024 and it goes well too, without the stutters, but with "flaky" registration.
All in all the TBM can be used in 2024, on my computer, but I'll just need to overlook the issues, it's still nice to fly it in 2024. -
Thanks for the report. I have been looking into these stutters recently, as I have seen them reported with all of my complex aircraft, and several other complex 3rd party aircraft in MSFS 2024. This surprised me, as I take a substantial effort in development to make my aircraft frame rate friendly. I suffered for too many years with a lower-end PC not allowing me to enjoy the aircraft I wanted to fly for my users to face the same dilemma, so performance has always been a top priority of mine.
Unfortunately, to the best I can tell, this is a MSFS 2024 problem with the "CoherentGT" system used to render avionics and my tablet displays. Asobo has said that they are working on a solution in our developer forums, and there may have been some improvement in SU1 Beta already, but other developers are reporting that there is still a significant loss of performance and stuttering for Coherent-based avionics. I will keep you updated if I learn more, or if there is anything I can do to mitigate the problem on my end. Hopefully they will correct this problem so that we can have the same performance that we did in MSFS 2020.

@Black-Square For me it's running fairly well! It's actually now my most flown AC in 2024. And am happy to read that your still keep looking into the 850 for future updates/patches.

Thanks for letting me know. After I've asked about this stuttering issue, it seems that only some users in 2024 are experiencing it. while strange, it is also similar to so many other issues I've seen in 2024, which seems much more sensitive to people's particular hardware and operating systems than 2020 was.
I'm glad you're enjoying the TBM! Indeed, if you haven't seen, I have even overhauled the KAS 297B for a future update from knowledge I gained working on the Starship. It will now have proper vertical speed arming, altitude capture arming, and vertical speed synchronizing. I hope you enjoy it!
