This is now reported in the closed beta forum as well.

After today's open beta update, the master warning light does not illuminate for a warning message on the EUFD. Likewise, the master caution light does not flash after it illuminates; it's possible this behavior is correct, but does not mention the behavior of the caution light after it's been triggered. I was attempting to verify the flash rate of the warning light, which I suspected to be incorrect. It should flash at 4hz (4 times per second), but appeared to flash at 2hz in the last open beta. Track attached. no master warning.trk

In the earlier builds, there was a very nice blur around the rotor hub when looking at it from the pilot's seat; there were no visible edges and it transitioned nicely to the blades. Now, there are clearly-defined edges in the blur around the hub, almost as if it's a translucent hexagon. Track attached showing what it looks like. Rotor blur.trk

The cylinder representing the standby ADI's adjustment knob is currently incorrect. if you reference the real instrument, you'll see that there should be a thin, silver rod extending from the instrument to connect to the knob rather than the wide cylinder that is currently present. Pictures attached illustrating the changes needed.

"MB" on the standby altimeter should read "IN. HG." as the DCS AH-64D is replicating an American aircraft rather than an overseas variant. Figure 2-103 in TM 251-10 also depicts "IN.HG." as being the correct text. Also just noticed that the white tringle below the Kollsman window is missing from the simulator version. See the attached photos for comparison.

Issue: Pressing the M bezel button when on the COM PRESET page brings up the COM page instead of the MENU page. Expectation: COM PRESET -> M = MENU Result: COM PRESET -> M = COM Evidence: Action the M bezel button on any other MPD page and note that the MENU page is correctly brought up. TM 251-10 also makes no note of the M button having a special function when the COM PRESET page is displayed. Track attached. COM PRESET to M.trk

Issue: Pressing the M bezel button when on the XPDR page brings up the COM PRESET page instead of the MENU page. Expectation: XPDR -> M = MENU Result: XPDR -> M = COM Page (PRESET Selected) Evidence: Action the M bezel button on any other MPD page and note that the MENU page is correctly brought up. TM 251-10 also makes no note of the M button having a special function when the XPDR page is displayed. Track attached. XPDR to M.trk

Track file attached. Compare the simulator's page with Figure 4-100A in the previously-referenced TM 251-10 to see the discrepancies. ASE page missing data2.trk

Thanks!

The MPD ASE page is missing the chaff status window and the aircraft heading status window. The chaff status window should be positioned over the 'M' MPD action button on both the ASE and ASE UTIL pages. It should display the remaining number of chaff and also be present on the ASE UTIL page. TM page reference: 4-115, section 4.89.16. The aircraft heading status window should be positioned between T3 and T4. It should have the same behavior as the window on the TSD, and reads the current aircraft heading. TM page reference: 3-74, section 3.61.26. Source: TM 251-10. Sorry I didn't include a track, I'm still figuring out how to record one.
