surprised to see that the imagery of the world map is updated, showing the SoFi Stadium in LA now, but in game it is the same old contruction site.
Quite unimpressed, to be honest, considering it is right on final Approach of KLAX.

What I dont get thoug: why is there a difference in satelite imagery between world map and in-game?

I checked if I have rolling cache active, but no…

So I can confirm that the Great Salt Lake has way too much water :joy: That definitely didn’t get fixed. I’ve been there before and a lot of it has receded. I wonder if other bodies of water are overfilled still :thinking: Especially in the Southwest and Southern California where a lot of the lakes are dried up. The Santa Ana River by Riverside, California is a good example (I’ve lived in Riverside and the river is dry and dead).

Yeah Dallas has the Handcrafted airport and is a major city and hub. and yes agreed Hawaii skipped twice, hopefully in another update or a “oceania” world update…

Please be aware that some of the third party scenery have updates as a result of WU X

The world map is flat 2D imagery that comes directly from Bing Maps. The in-game scenery takes Bing Maps data as one input source but then also applies additional processing like blackshark.ai, photogrammetry, and hand-crafted POIs to render it in full 3D.

Of course, as always :slight_smile: An otherwise unchanged system that reacts differently after a particular software update.

@SeedyL3205 any chance of a detailed coverage map for this update, similar to the first United States World Update?

This update is neither showing in the Content Manager nor in the Marketplace.

However, I have got updates for all the earlier installed World Updates. But World Update X isn’t showing at all.

Any advice?

Same here. After a sim restart it installed flawlessly though.

EDIT: Ah I see this was an old map - thanks

Is this map for todays world update ? thanks

Did you post in the appropriate CTD topic? Or a Zendesk report? Did you vote in the poll?

Can we get HAWAII? This is absurd ! 2 USA updates and no Oahu, Maui, Kauai, Hawaii, Molokai, Lanai. At least make this part of World Update XI but include Oceania

Checking on this now. The Community Team wasn’t provided with a map like this for WU10, but I’m asking some of the devs if they have a comparable map available. I’ll post it in this thread if I get it.

Hi @ZILLNIAZI17,

If you haven’t already done so, try rebooting your PC or Xbox then restarting MSFS. In my personal experience, that almost always resolves updates not showing up for me.

Thanks,
MSFS Team

Excellent, thank you for checking in on this! (I edited my post and removed the photos so that people didn’t confuse it with today’s World Update)

I just did that, Seedy.

The World Update II USA is there, and all the other nine updates but World Update X USA is completely missing in the freeware section of the Marketplace.

Please advise…

I am on PC. Steam version.

WU10 should appear under the “World” section of the Marketplace as shown in the screenshot below:
