Writing this for those that missed it: While we further investigate and fix this issue, as a workaround, you could uninstall “WU 10 USA - 3D Photogrammetry Cities” in order to fix the KDFW Ground texture issue temporarily.
A post was merged into an existing topic: Elevation Issues at KDEN
I can also confirm that deleting the 'USA Photogrammetry Cities" incl. Arlington solves the issues.
I would like to add that it also solves another, related problem at KDAL.
At Dallas Love Field (DAL / KDAL) the threshold and first 1000’ of runway 13R at Dallas Love Field are heavily blurred (as well as the approach path), regardless whether the default airport or the iBlueYonder add-on is used. Deleting photogrammetry for Arlington also solves this issue.
Thanks for the help.

Ah yes, Arlington TX, PG that makes sense. Can we get a time line for a fix? Please don’t mark this as solved because a workaround and a solve are different.

Just wanted to chime in with an update. I have everything installed and up-to-date including the world/city updates. As of the last time I checked, DFW is now working completely fine. I am on a Series X with photogrammetry enabled and all the rest as I said.
And I have to say, it may be the best looking Asobo airport I’ve seen yet. A shame that it was hidden for so long.
Update on the KGFW ground issue. If you also delete the airport ground enhancement pack and close out Microsoft Flight Sim and relaunch it. It will fix the ground issue.
This issue is not existing on Xbox X. Only some/all PC users have the issue. I checked the DFW on Xbox X at the same time and it was fine.
That’s simply not true at all. I am on Xbox and had this issue until recently. There was an entire thread regarding the issue on Xbox that got merged with this one as far as I can tell.

As you mentioned above this issue is already fixed on Xbox. I was talking about current issues not passed/fixed ones. At this time Xbox users can fly to/from DFW with WU 10 USA - 3D Photogrammetry Cities installed with no problem. But, some if not all still have ground/elevation issue on their PC.
Not sure why these issues are being marked as “fixed” . I’ve even gone as far as reformatting my computer and completely starting over from scratch. It’s so bad that if it comes up in my route in A Pilots Life I just use xPlane.

Deleting the Cities Update did NOT solve my issues on runway 17L / 35R. Elevation still a mess, although it did not cause my 737 to jump.

Is this for Dallas or Denver?
I’m interested in a solution for the Denver elevation problems.
Today I tried to depart from KDFW,
But during taxy I got stuck:
Very terrible scenery for one of the biggest airports in U.S.

This is mainly discussing the issues at DFW, SEA and a few others which the US Cities caused issues. For DEN, if you are using the FlightBeam DEN then you need to uninstall the MSFS version of DEN and those elevation issues should disappear.
I don’t have the Flightbeam KDEN, I do have the premium deluxe edition so I would like a fix for the problem using that airport. I like flying to and from KDEN a lot but these elevation issues are really catastrophic.
The biggest problem in DFW are the bridges over that parkway. They are completely bugged and simply not existent.
So you fall down to the road and get stuck.
They must be fixed first.
Okay the textures and buildings are poor quality but nevertheless the bridges are the biggest problem!

at DFW yesterday and couldn’t even taxi from the “C” gates as my plane was stuck in a ravine after pushback. Lots of uneven terrain on taxiway “K” along with blurry textures until you approach the hold point for runway 17R. DFW is a major airport and hub for the airline with the largest passenger volume in the US. I get that it’s a default airport but its not just any airport and in it’s current form is barely passable.

Hi @bam12208834
I think they closed the other thread where we discussed DFW.
Do you know if the workaround (not fix!) Jayne posted still works to improve Dallas in general and DFW in particular?
Regards
Didn’t work for me. I do have the 3rd party KDAL (Dallas Love Field) and I fly in/out of that now. I can’t use KDFW at all though no matter what I try. I just get so tired of Asobo fixing 1 thing and breaking 2 more. Then it takes forever to get anything that they broke fixed. Honestly I am going to hold off on buying MSFS2024. I don’t have any hope that it will be any different than the problems we go through with MSFS2020.

If everyone who contributed to this thread can consistently reproduce the same defects (need more than one person besides the topic starter) - one of you can file a Bug Report, reference THIS thread in the report to show there was peer validation and everyone else also contribute to the Bug Report. Please use screenshots and coordinates to show where texturing or terrain issues are causing problems and point out the buildings or other POI that’s defective.
We’ll see if we can get it ingested by the Dev Team. That’s not our (Staff) role, but we’ll try. No guarantees.
