Understood. Apologies for that.
Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
yes
Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
I experienced this issue flying in the alps near Courchevel. It only seems to be present in orthophoto/autogen areas. Photogrammetry area textures aren’t affected, but the mesh pops in/updates when flying low level.

Same on my side, but only since the last two updates.
It’s the same on my side, it’s annoying.

Nice video, this shows it off really well
Tested on several flights across Europe.
Always different aircraft.
Community Folder empty or not,
always the same issue.
Direct after takeoff, everything looks good for the first five minutes. Then the terrain popping start.
Paused the sim and turned off Bing Maps, terrain popping stops and you see the normal non satellite terrain.
Turned on bing maps again, ok, for five minutes then the popping starts again.
Internet connection is a stable 1GB connection.
Different groundlayers-bingdata are popping in, not the terrain itself. A lot of european parts are affected, most the southern parts like the balkan coast, parts of italy, greece, Corsica…and some parts around the world.
And after some weeks…no fix for this by Asobo. Its on the list but has no priority. I realy don’t know how many reports are needed fot this. Realy a mess.

They definitely know how to fix it, because the Bordeaux region and north of Algeria are ok now. They NEVER explained what’s happening.

Have you disabled/removed all your mods and addons?
I removed all addons EXCEPT for some WU’s (including both US updates) and three Reno aircraft
Brief description of the issue:
Large blocks of satellite imagery are changing color and flickering in and out as I fly in certain locations. KOSH is a great example. I’ve also had it happen at KWER (West Baraboo Airport) when heading east towards Devils Lake State Park, but for some reason there are also times where there is no issue there. At KOSH it seems to happen every time. I’ve seen it elsewhere, too, but unfortunately I do not remember the other locations. I’ve flown out of KOSH and KWER quite a few times last year and did not have any of these issues. I’m not sure exactly when this became an issue, but I first noticed it maybe a month ago.
I waited to file this report because my dad also owns MSFS for XSX and I wanted to get a chance to see if the results are the same on his, and they are. So I’m not sure if it’s a general sim issue or an issue that specifically affects Xbox, but I have confirmed it to be an issue on both my own and his Xbox Series X’s.
Provide Screenshot(s)/video(s) of the issue encountered:
I’ve also included two video examples because they show it even better than images:
KOSH
In the video above, you can see a parking lot from the most recent bing maps data disappear, which suggests that the issue is that the sim has satellite imagery from different dates that are competing with each other.
KWER
Detailed steps to reproduce the issue encountered:
Taking off at either airport in any aircraft
Build Version # when you first started experiencing this issue:
I don’ know the build version, but I think it’s something that is fairly recent as I have flown at both of these locations on and off throughout last year without this issue.

I swear I’m seeing it more and more lately. Feels like the sim is falling apart a little. This needs to be a top priority.

Between this and the water/satellite imagery issues that have been plaguing xbox users near photogrammetry for the past 10 months, flying is becoming increasingly unenjoyable. I find myself flying out of the same handful of airports that I know are unaffected. Seems like whenever I try somewhere new, all I see is imagery tiles flickering in and out.

I do a lot of flying around southeastern Wisconsin. Much of the area seems to be good for the time being. Other parts of the state are badly affected, though.

Low ground resolution at some places. Ie : Dallas area, Texas

I’m going to start posting clips of examples every time I see it. Maybe that way they’ll understand the severity of this issue and get a fix. The sim should not be in this state for this long. This is similar to the imagery tiles popping up on water bug that was first reported 10 months ago for xbox users and STILL unfixed after this long, and continues to ruin all flights near water in photogrammetry areas. WHY are they not fixing these issues after SO long? If this is the state of the sim while they’re still actively supporting it, what will it be near the end of that support?

Have you noticed areas with this issue in United States? To this date we have reported this problem mainly in southern Europe, but unfortunately this issue is appearing in more and more places. These are areas that were fine before, like Malta island.
