Discussion + Poll: World Update IV (1.15.7.0)

Why ask this question?

It is the community files that brake the Sim?

Ofcorse it works if you remove them???

But then our Hardware, and software don’t work.

The crash when connecting / disconnecting input devices is back again. I use a wireless Xbox controller for drone mode camera controls, so the controller is likely to be left untouched for long periods until it shuts itself down - which makes this a very annoying issue.

Indeed.

Last night I went to bed depressed after watching the Developer Q&A with no mention of it. For weeks now the Top Bugs list said “2021”, so I had almost lost all hope for an imminent fix. Never occurred to me to check the update notes last night because I’m not planning to install WU4 until Saturday.

So much anxiety and frustration could have been avoided if they had just written “WU4” in the bugs list, but I guess they weren’t sure if they would have the fix ready and tested in time.

Anyway, all that is history now. :blush:

the microsoft update ALWAYS fails for me. They are broken and waste my time. Please stop forcing me into the microsft store for an update, update fail, and then a repeat performance against my will. PLEASE let me say NO or CANCEL to the notice for a Required update or any update. The only way updates work on my 20H2 PC and this game (purchased from the microsft store) is to use the Xbox App. Your loop of update and fail requires me to use taks manager to cancel the process, reboot, and then start the Xbox App. I just lost most of my play time fiddling with another update I did not want NOW. My game played just fine the last time I ran it.

They did.

It was (boy, does it feel good to write “was”) the same bug causing unwanted acceleration in several controls.

No installation problems.
The performance is very good so far, see:
https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/DZR3UDhcebc Paris just looks awesome.

Brussels normaly has photogrammetry. But indeed like you said. Only love for France. :frowning:

Maby they chould make then an update for France and one for BeNeLux.
Like if you go to Bruges you have Only 2 of the 3 towers :face_with_raised_eyebrow:
Its like its only done for the half. (ale 2/3)
What i like is that now you can have churches but here also a problem.
Arent the most of the churches with a pointy tower ? :face_with_raised_eyebrow:
And one last thing. Great coastline for France but the Belgium and Netherland coastline?
I want to fly next to the appartments :grin:
But give it time. I guess it cant only be better.
For the performance i will say nothing, i’m still waiting for my 3080.

Sorry for the broken English :stuck_out_tongue:
greetings

I may have seen something similar when I was flying over Rouen, France yesterday: the performance was significantly worse compared to flying in the countryside while at some point I was flying over city downtown at an altitude of 5000’ but initially I actually thought this was a quarry or something. All the buildings were kind of melted in some undefined gray mass. I realized these were building objects only when I watched a few appear and disappear again. Not to mention cars driving on small brooks of the main river as if these were regular streets. Too bad I didn’t keep any images of this.

I’ll do another test today with my trusty C152 and see if I can replicate it.

Anyone know why after the update all my community mods says not installed, but yet they show up in game and work fine?

Hi did you find a fix? I too after update all Community mods saying not installed, but all loaded and working…

I have just flown over the UK with the default Cessna 172 and I must say that the performance is comparable to the previous update, it works quite well.

Because the western part of the Netherlands is so densely populated this may have an effect on the overall performance on my system. I will have to do some more flying after work to see how well the sim performs in the less populated parts of the Netherlands, Belgium and France.

Amsterdam looks impressive from a distance, quite a feat to model it like this using photogrammetry.

Cheers, Marc

Update downloaded and installed flawlessly, as always.
Thx Asobo :ok_hand:

The first thing I noticed is that the tree draw distance has not been corrected or improved, and worse than that, the MOD that helped with that has stopped working completely. I only see trees around the plane, it looks like I’m playing a Playstation game in 1998.

My settings: Terrain LOD 100 Trees HIGH (like before the update)

So I gave it a fresh start this morning, after some sleep and a ‘cool down’ period. Launched the game about 6:20 eastern. Load up the caravan…15 fps then 20 then 23 and steadys out. Good enough to fly launch make turn to 60 degrees and head toward Cleveland, still holding 20-23 fps, not great but still flyable, fly past Burke Lakefront still at 23..get about 20 mi east and the fps drops in the toliet 23-18-3 fps,
so remembering what someone said about changing servers I pause open the server list (set for us east with a ping of 45)..looking at the list I see that West is pinging at 85, but South East Asia is telling me the ping in 2 ms .. wow from the heartland of America thats amazing…so I select that, slowly my fps start climbing again now were upto 32 fps … ‘extremely strange in my book’ so I decide to turn around and land at Burke, start to make my turn 15 degree bank, level flight, speed around 120 knts no flaps, as I start to line up with the Airport (still around 20 mi away) the you crashed message pops up, and tells me I have overstressed the aircraft…

Whatever…Load up the A320 at KCLE…fps 12 - 18 - 20 hmmm not so good. Check the server list again, now the SE Asia server says its pinging 2883472342ms … ROFL REALY? Select the US West server pinging at 85 ms, return to flight and the FPS is now avg 23, not great but, launch, gear up, flaps up, level flight 250 knts, make my turn to the East again, fly past Cleveland, Burke, ( still at 23 fps and running pretty smooth) get about 5 mi past Burke all of a sudden 23 - 18 - 10 - 3 FPS … Blah change servers again just to check (back to US EAST) and it just sat there at 3 fps…

Give me more of that …

It is cosmetic only - has no impact

thanks for the reply, I figured, download went super smooth this time Tok 1.20min for everything so all good! yet to test flight…

You didn’t even check before posting this did you?

Same here, with same airports, setting set for “All-Players” on leads to freeze frame every second this is visible on oother players, ground vehicles and player tags blinking, switching to “group-only” and the freeze stops.

I had good performance when I wasn’t flying in Paris. I expect in a few weeks this will clear up, as London was exactly the same as this for me. Even before the hotfix for SU3 was released, performance improved a few weeks later when all the excitement had died down. Paris also suffers from the issue of PG needing a cleanup. I spotted quite a few structures that had that blasted Dark Souls look to them. Big T cranes looking like they were in a blast furnace, disconnected bits of geometry floating in the air etc.

I can not enter in market after update IV
