You’re absolutely spot on, this is why I’m still using LVFR’s KSAN over Amsim’s brand new one, Amsim’s KSAN looks like a fps killer with the amount of detail he added, my fps with LVFR is great so far…

Currently living in SD. I can say that LVFR’s version is much more representative. A lot more little details that matter. Wish they would update this airport and bring it to standard. And my FSLTL traffic follows a very strange taxi pattern- unlike real life. Amsim/bmworld use way too may repetative elements- bm world didn’t seem to do this on their sceneries so maybe it’s the amsim part of the team? And their opaque windows don’t really look the part.
I noticed BMworld has some nice airports like KMRY for an example, for some reason when Amsim jumps in, the product’s quality is degraded by ignoring bugs and refusing to release updates, Scamsim’s customer service is horrible…
I love their KMEM. I think they did a great job and its one of my favorites. For me their work is fine – except the Phoenix hole. I’m sure it’ll get fixed sooner or later.
I hope so!

Can’t speak for BMW/Amsim’s KPHX but their CYUL is fantastic. It looked a bit ‘sterile’ upon release but two updates have turned it into one of the best airports for the sim (certainly on Xbox).

Agreed. I chose their rendition over MK-Studio’s version and no regrets here.

FWIW, the new FSR500 just BS’ed at the Final Approach Fix to ILS 7R, TOTIE, in VMC with live weather on and no traffic. The Piper was configured for landing so I just pressed on and put her down. The SW corner, freight/GA part of the airport was not too terrific to look at. The FSR500 appears to BS much like the PMDG 737 does, so it may become a useful tool for exploring add on airports and scenery. Anyway, it was a nice day in Phoenix. Good flying!

What does “BS’ed” mean?
Black Screen. The lighter side of the CTD coin in Xbox speak LOL!

I’ve been getting that all over since SU14. Always on final less than a mile from touchdown.
Did someone tested this recently on Xbox with SU15 beta and if so how is stability and performance?
There’s a sale going on😏
Back on March 5th, KPHX-KOKC in the Dreamliner. That must have been 1.37.5.0? Maybe you can search for my report back there, not sure if it was for Stability or Performance, but look in Stability first. I was very impressed with that flight. Have not been there since. Cheers!

Thx. Well, if. 5 was good, I see little reason why I wouldn’t be still ok with . 11
Perhaps I hold on for just a moment to see if there are others reporting here as well. My wishlist is too long so I can wait a bit.

Just a good airport scenery. I really don’t see what all the hassle is all about.
The hassle is about whether or not it’s stable on Xbox or not. Something PC customers don’t have to worrie about so much😉

Got a ping from Orbx that they updated it to a nee version with some nice improvements
<@&1180590375929380925>
Just a quick update to start your week, from our Partners at BMWorld & AmSim! 
BMWorld and AmSim update KPHX Phoenix International Airport to v1.6.0 for Microsoft Flight Simulator! <:USA:803773504725581895>
Grab your copy here: https://orbxdirect.com/product/bmworldamsim-kphx-msfs
Changelog:
• Added option to select HD or SD textures
• Improved performance
• Improved jetway models
• Corrected ground markings
• Added custom Wig-wag lights
• Added green-orange runway exit lighting
• Decreased taxiway tips and edge lights intensity
By “custom wig-wag lights” I thought they meant something like from this YouTube video at 4:08 watch?v=n1uoxur8l4c&t=312s
Not just the standard wig-wag lights on the sides.
Flightbeam implemented this wig wags in their Tampa airport, hopefully BMW&Amsim follows suit.
Flightbeam has KTPA for MSFS2020?
