Coastline glitch - water creeping up coasts/cliffs

First thing I’m going to check for, sadly don’t think they added it as the notes say nothing about it. 2gb install left to go.

Well, „increased performance in marketplace“ says all?
Priorities…!

Nope, not fixed, not at all. To add to that… I started a flight in air off the north coast of Molokai Hawaii and chose live weather and it started with the preset set to snow and the windshield was iced up :expressionless_face:

Just to add, one thing they appear to have fixed is the stretched windows and dialogue boxes that users of Super ultrawide screens were experiencing.

Soooo sad they didn’t fix this dang coastline water creep issue. It looks horrendous and screams of playing a video game, totally ruins any feeling of immersion.

Unfortunately still very much present! Bummer!

Still there…Sitka, Alaska:

This was not a thing one/two months ago..

This started with the USA World Update, around one month ago. I’m surprised this is still not fixed considering it’s a very obvious bug.

Everyone, please upvote the thread and send a Zendesk report! We need Asobo to take a look at this.

This is a serious bug which was introduced in the USA update. I am hopeful that the developers have clocked that this is an issue. All flights around coastlines are having their immersion broken due to this. I am hopeful it will be fixed soon.

Not solved the issue. Still in the sim. :rage: I can`t belive it

I have to say that I am grateful for the update. But I cannot believe this glitch/issue has not been addressed or solved this is not present before prior to US update. Really not looking good those climbing water. :confused:

That’s annoying, creeping water is still there.

Plus, sim still don’t remember the position of the toolbar items from the last flight such as camera/weather/VFR map windows.

And today, I found out one more issue that I never came across before : Bing Maps don’t cover the entire planet.

I have the same problem, some areas only minor and other areas really bad. first noticed after Dec 3 update. It appears everywhere there is a coastline with cliffs, when you get really close the proper coastline begins to pop in. This scenery bug totally ruins the experience. I understand it will take a long time to get all the bugs out of a new sim but I didn’t expect that every update would create more problems. It’s very frustrating for everyone when one thing seem to be working so well then after an update it’s suddenly broken. I have also reported to Zendesk and hopefully we get this resolved quickly.

Still not fixed after 22-Dec update. This was first noticed after the USA update. If it has anything to do with repairing Niagara Falls, please roll it back. Unfortunately this bug is ruining the experience. I’m really disappointed it hasn’t been resolved yet.

I made a comparison with an older screenshot. There is an obvious difference:

11.11.2020

25.12.2020 (today)

Although it was not perfect before, it definitely got worse, especially on nearer distance.

I must say, overall the sim today is in a worse state than at launch!

Improvements

  • performance is slightly better, but still not good (still low fps and stutters)

What got worse (my opinion)

  • coastlines look ugly
  • grainy clouds look ugly

And there had been massive bugs that have been newly introduced and fixed weeks later

  • Logbook not logging
  • crazy lightnings in live weather
  • autopilot issues coming and going, still not ok

Some issues have been improved and are back now

  • cracks in terrain, especially mountains

And much much more…

The latest bug with the enormous spikes all over the world is topic in another thread.

Actually I am really disappointed and thinking about looking for another hobby for the next few months!

La Gomera (default scenery): water is climing uphill. One can see clearly where the normal sealevel is.

Yeah, its really ugly.
I bought the game in november and was looking good. After patch 6 the graphics have been destroyed.
