Fired up FS2024 for the first time since the 12/20 update and the cockpit windows in the A300 premium look really odd. It almost looks like the inside of the windows is reflecting the ground directly underneath the cockpit. Very noticable on takeoff and landing, and seems to get a little better during cruise.

I've probably done ~20 flights in the new A300 without issue before today, so it seems to have something to do with the latest update. Tried a few different liveries and variants, and the ugly reflections were present in all cases. Changing the 'cockpit window reflections' setting in MSFS seemed to have no effect. I even tried uninstalling and then redownloading the A300.

See included screenshot. In this case, I've just taken off and the runway and taxiway directly underneath me is visible in the windscreen.

Yes I got them as well. Very odd looking and annoying. I did not have them before last patch

I have the same problem 

Same problem here.

everything under the airplane is reflected in the windows

Yes. Same here. Postet this bug as well.

Thanks, the team is aware and looking into any possible solutions on our end.

We have also acknowledged a similar report on discord.

@richboy2307 Any progress?  I just bought the plane, and it is effectively unflyable at night.  I might ask for a refund. 

Hi @Jeff Green

We have to wait for a fix from MS/Asobo side as last sim update has affected reflections across the board.

Thanks!

Do we know more about when asobo is updating?

Unfortunately no. It may be fixed in the Sim Update 1 that has been just released for beta. Have yet to check it out. 

is not fixed in Sim Update 1 Beta

Can confirm, the ugly reflections are still here in Sim Update 1 beta.

Makes me avoid the aircraft until its fixed.

is Microsoft Asobo even aware of this bug ?
Quote from the MSFS forum

 

Even in the latest SU1 beta (1.3.10.0) the bug is still present which completely destroys night flights,
not a good prospect for the A350

is there any confirmation from ASOBO that they will fix this bug is not even on the list of bugs but is on the wish list ??

Hello,

Not entirely sure honestly. I believe it has been reported many times and I would assume it's on Asobo's radar. 

Still no word from Asobo on this issue ?

It looks like we are being left alone with the problem
I will take this into account for the purchase of another aircraft.
I have bought both versions MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024, I could have saved myself the Premium 2024 version so far brings no added value

Same Here, bought the Premium in an attempt to get some motivation for 2024 with the incoming 350. I wonder if the 350 will suffer from this problem. 

the support for the faults this aircraft has is shameful everything is now focused on the A350
I will not buy another airplane from inibuild if the suport stays this crappy 

Again, like I have said above. This is NOT an issue we can resolve. We are waiting for a fix from Asobo.

I don't quite agree with you, I don't have this problem in other airplanes. As already reported in other forums, this error is due to a bad porting from the MSFS 2020 to the 2024 version.
 

Respectfully, whether you agree or not will not resolve the issue. We have indentified a core sim-issue that is affecting this. We will update you all once we know more.
