Discussion + Poll: World Update VII (1.22.2.0)

[PorcoRosse]

Given your spec, you can afford to crank up your Terrain LodFactor and ObjectsLoD at least both to 4.000000 in your UserCfg.opt file and see if that makes a difference for melted PG buildings. Your LODs factors may be too small and PG can be quite dependent on it. Ingame options don’t allow to go past a certain factor but editing UserCgf.opt directly allows to go higher.

Can you be more specific about the lack of quality? I wanted to buy it but now I’m wondering if I should.

Thanks!

I think 4 (400) is possible from the graphics section.

Well, at least they are not whining about the clouds anymore… so I guess we can call this… progress?

[Bluesman4730]

Why Oh why would they add new bushtrips without actually fixing the bushtrip feature?

It makes no bloody sense….

[chk3000]

Well, fixing functionality is done in SU (sim updates) while new scenery und bushtrips come in WU (world updates). Makes perfect sense.

We just have to wait for SU8 and hope bushtrips are fixed…

Welcome back random CTDs. One step forward, two steps back. Every blessed time.

This has been a constant battle for me not just this update!

Ive always had melted buildings.

Have you checked your latency and ports? Try setting up a new DNS four your router (such as google). The official zendesk suggests that as well.

[NachoCrisp]

Thanks for the help!

Got the full update now.

I think 4 (400) is possible from the graphics section.

For Terrain LOD yes, but object LOD is still limited to 200 in the graphics section. Dunno if going past 200 in UserCfg does make that much of a difference though.

@f14billy

Since you play with such high LODs. Could you do a performance test regarding 3D photogrammetry cities? Basically delete all 3D photogrammetry city objects from the World Updates and GOTY except USA and Nordics, then restart the sim (very important) and see if you have any performance increase on the ground? We are trying to see if this is a widespread issue that is reproduceable by many of us as described in this thread:

Yep, I’ll give it go today

It sure does make a difference. The higher you go, the further the draw distance.

A mountain is misplaced ‘several km’s’. Man, what a tragedy.

Let’s replace the word “mountain” with any popular POI to check the logic of the argument. How about Eiffel Tower? Let’s check it out…

The Eiffel Tower is misplaced ‘several km’s’. Man, what a tragedy.

Mountain, Eiffel Tower, if it’s “misplaced” by several km’s then it’s probably not as advertised, not as designed, not being reverse engineered by the competition to see how it’s done.

Are cars sticking out of the terminal as part of a big world update a tragedy? No, but it doesn’t present a good picture for quality control

[f14billy]

Thank you so much, if you can report your findings in the following thread it would be great.

Poor performance on the ground

Definitely seems like your issue is very different. The 3D photogrammetry cities issue is very specific. You have to be main thread limited on the ground with photogrammetry on bringing your FPS to about half of what it would be if you had photogrammetry off. The other identified issue is the one that started this thread. Your FPS goes to single digits on the ground with photogrammetry on and seems like the only fix for that one so far is to do a full reinstall of windows unfortunately.

The bridges at the end of Fremantle Harbor are also broken.

This is the best World Update we’ve had. The PG is high quality and performance is good. Keep it up.
