Small window glass in MSFS24

[SebAvi]

Hello,
Could you please take look at this small issue in the next release ? Small window glass, It's look like opened on some angles. Thank you!

I tried reproducing this from every angle that I could, but could not get it to look like your screenshot. Is this MSFS 2020 or 2024? I suspect that what you're seeing is just that it's a flat window in the otherwise curved windshield, but perhaps there is something less pedestrian going on, especially if this is MSFS 2024.

Here is the clip how it's looking now in 24:

Yep, looks the same for me in 2024. The video is a good demonstration, it's only visible from a very certain angle.

I finally had time to investigate this. The materials are absolutely identical between the storm window and the windshields. From the viewing angles, it's clear to me that the difference is simply that the storm window is flat, and the surrounding windshield is slightly curved. Just one more fun idiosyncrasy of MSFS 2024, it appears. I will see what I can do about adding some curvature to that window in the future, but that never seemed to play well with MSFS 2020 when I've done it in the past, because it creates poor geometry.

Thanks! @Black-Square

I just wanted to let you guys know that I implemented a workaround for this issue, which will be included in the next update when SU4 is released. You can read a little about why it took so long in this post. Sorry about the delay, but I'm happier than anyone to have it fixed now! Thanks again!

That's great news, thanks! It was obviously not a huge issue but irritating every time you see it nontheless.
