If its small then probably an update being made available for one of your market place mods so check your content manager … As for the 127GB my guess is MSFS could not access the drive your packages are on, possibly a sleeping usb external drive. Next time pause the update correct the path in UserCfg and restart the sim, not forgeting to point at the packages if asked.
cool thank you very much for your help so far. I will look into those lists and with some time add them to my map. would be cool if in the end i manage to get a pretty much complete display of all airports that are missing vs all airports that are being added bit by bit on the map.
Look in your usercfg.opt file located in appdata/roaming/… and the very last line will have the install directory to the sim. If thats missing or just wrong edit it so that it points to the right install dir.
Then it should work in the future. No reason you should have to reload the whole sim over and over again.
For Steam version:
C:\Users\[Your User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\UserCfg.opt
InstalledPackagesPath “C:\Users\[Your User Name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages”
Kangaroos didn’t make it into the fauna of World Update VII. Here are some suggestions for Australian fauna for a future update:
- Camels - there are about 1 million feral camels, which is > 2x the number of elephants in Africa. Camels were introduced by 19th century explorers.
- Water buffalo - there are swap and river water buffalo in the Northern Territory. Most are feral, and were introduced from India in the 1880s. Australia has the largest population of feral water buffalo in the world, with about 150,000 animals.
- While not considered fauna, there are 68 million sheep (75.4 million by 2023) which should be visible in large flocks from the air. There are also about 6.3 million head of cattle.
- Crocodiles would be interesting additions to the waters of Kakadu National Park, or surfing the waves off Darwin.
- In a similar vein, sharks might be another easily observed marine animal from the air.
I’ve left out emus and cassowaries as they are fairly solitary.
I thought I saw a small dun coloured marsupial a bit like a roo. Wombat maybe?
But what about the Dingo’s eh what?
If there aren’t little ill-tempered devils running around or even a Tasmanian Devil on the plane where he pops out and tried to chew your face off, then it is a waste of bandwidth to download the update. 
Are you using a beta version?

Of course not! They would shoot the planes down!
They tend to be nocturnal in warmer regions, so they’d be hard to see. Dingo distributions are a single dingo, 73%; two dingoes, 16%; three dingoes, 5%; four dingoes, 3%; and packs of five to seven dingoes, 3%. A dingo pack usually consists of a mated pair, their offspring from the current year, and sometimes offspring from the previous year [Wikipedia.] You’d be unlikely to see a single dingo that would be indistinguishable from a feral dog. There are many more coyotes in the U.S., but I don’t think you’ll see coyotes in MSFS 2020 anytime soon.
LOL I was making a joke, if your of any age and remember when the Australians connected to the internet through a tin can and string to the mainland…But your probably much to young to remember ‘those days’.
A fatal mistake on here
Australia is the Mainland down here.
ROFL look theres one of them now ;p
Welcome to the pain of addons! I once went through them all at 3 at a time and i had about a 1000 of them so i could figure out why wakes were not showing in seafront simulations global shipping. The culprit was a small brazilian airport i bought on the marketplace that was causing an issue.
Hi
Yes it is strange as sometimes it works and others doesn’t
Which was the Brazilian one? I have several there
It might saving time checking if I have that one
Thanks for your concern
Carlos
It cracks me up how this post draws the forum critics and reviewers like moths to a flame. Like the g maps comment as a good example.
This search can be done much faster by taking half of the mods, checking their combined effect, and then either checking other half, or dividing current half in smaller halfs and repeating.
Binary search! I got a trophy for using that at a coding competition maybe 30 years ago!
