This is just bad imagery not a streaming or LOD issue. You can see exactly where it blends East-South-East of Nassau, for example:
The rest of the Nassau area looks fine:

Maybe someone already posted this. I just cruised around in the A320 to EDDB and noticed that the lighting looks pretty bad at high altitudes.
I have TLOD at 200 and you clearly see the circle where it just stops loading in, no transition, it just stops rendering.
Looking at MSFS2020, night lighting looked much better even without maxing out your graphic settings.

i thought there were clouds lol
I mostly fly airliners and the night lighting is terrible (as well as the LOD). This is supposed to be âthe next generation of flight simulatorâ. Itâs the one thing I was hoping for improvement from MSFS 2020, where I always avoided night flying.
Just.. why is the ground glowing!?
Iâm aware that it was brought up in the last developer livestream, but I fear itâs not going to be prioritised yet again.

All made on evenings in Germany. I donât know why but the server is still not up to par. Max. bandwith used was 90 MBit/s.
Tried using a VPN to USA. The only difference I saw was that the ground texture loads before the building on the world map. Without the VPN itâs the other way around.

Both screenshots taken with ultra settings and 100 TLOD. Itâs not the same place, but the message is clear

That looks like â â â â , and itâs exactly what I see in most cases.

What I donât get about the photogrammetry is that even Google Earth VR looks much better than this at ground level and that is from 2016. How has this technology not improved at all in eight years?

I recently uninstalled FS2024 and reinstalled 2020. Started an evening flight just to compare to my FS2024 screenshots, and 2020 is clearly superior..
Even with their famous sepia masks, it isnât as immersion breaking as it is currently in FS2024.
Both screenshots were taken with the ULTRA settings preset.
This HAS to be addressed.

Do people really have the same issues as i do? I cant really imagine that honestly. I already did a reinstall like 2 weeks ago and so far no big update came out.
My ground textures are just horrible and wont load in properly.
Textures set to High and TLOD set to 200. Also 50mbits stable internet connection.
Any idea what could fix this so i dont get Flight Sim 95 textures anymore?

Live with it forn now and yesâŠ.lots of users are affected including me. I have a 1GB fiber and world texture are a blurry mess from day one. I also think this bug was one of the most voted in the last live stream

Why is Microsoft & the devs not specifically calling out this blurry issue? We havenât seen anything targeting this problem. Crazy

Do we have an estimate on timing of the new data rollout?

Just give us the world locally again. I guarantee this is all because itâs streaming. Storage space is cheap. If nothing else, at least give us the option to download everything and those that canât can stream it. I tried to do a visual approach this morning and it cant be done. I was on top of the airport before I could even see the runway. Absolutely untenable. Make Flight Sim Local Again!
