SO, they updated Monaco. My buildings in Monaco look terrible. Typical Photogen issues where nothing looks good. This is terrible. My internet is 300+ and I have a high end system. Also, since SU15, my FPS has tanked.
DLSS is up to date and all settings are as they were before the update. Your thoughts?

Yes Sir! All downloads are complete.
I did, and have to say that the rendering on my config (i9/4090, Terrain LOD200, Objects LOD400) is ⊠surprising.
Hereâs a pic of the Casinoâs Place.
You can see that âmorphingâ thing on the buildings. Thereâs also something Iâve seen becoming more and more common, âflying treesâ.
Whatâs intriguing even more : in my Content Manager, i see the City Update installed and up-to-date, but itâs very small (136kb), compared to some other updates (CU2 is 2GB+, for example). It might be that buildings and POIâs are actually in other packages, though.
Anyone willing to share there view of Monaco, to see if I have an issue and should fill a bug report, or if itâs my expectations that are a bit too high ?
This is what I am seeing as well. Itâs horrendous to say the least. Seems like scenery isnât even loading
I do think that this is waht we should expect (in the sense of ânot a bugâ).
This shot is taken from the City Update 7 trailer :
Buildings on the left are not square, it seems.
Iâve tried with an empty community, with no change at all.
Either Iâm right about this not being a bug, either youâre right and for some reason, the actual scenery isnât installed / does not load.

@Hester40MT, genuine question, what in your opinion would be the most respectful way to get the opinion of someone knowledgable, here ?

Wow yeah, that is axactly what I am seeing. When I departed NICE, the scenery looked good. Adjusting settings, verifying internet connection etc etc had no effect. Is this the limited ability of Asoboâs artists? LOL
Have you deleted your rolling cache since the update?
Yes
And tried With and Without CACHE turned on
I did, too (to be exact : i never use rolling cache, as Iâm lucky to have a very strong internet connection). As the question is surely coming : I never used the infamous mod to change map datas, either 
Iâve seen no handcrafter buildings, except maybe the stadium, which looks a bit better than the rest. But Iâm sure of nothing there. An other hint, I think that, would artists have been involved on this, the heliport would be added to the database.
Thatâs why, to me, it does not look like a bug. Monaco was not one of the major cities of this update, it looks like itâs auto-generated from newer bing datas. And itâs all okay, then.
Agreed by Monaco WAS added to the Cities update released last week. NICE, BARCELONA, Madrid etc. I am about to fly Madrid and will report back.
Barcelona and Madrid are fine. However, when I loaded the city and spawned, I had ZERO PG. I switched from the EAST COAST server to the WEST COAST and the scenery loaded.

Sure⊠it is the same and âcorrectâ.
Itâs pretty normal for PG. Itâs not possible to really be totally perfect with current tech. Firstly it has to be streamable to thousands of people at the same time. Second it has to be low enough poly (optimised) to run on Xbox and not the totally best PCâs. Third its a matter of actually getting the data.
At the end of the day, itâs really not designed to be inspected from this close up. From the air, it really gives a great impression of the place. That is the goal of it really. Use your imagination to fill in the rest! I think itâs superb that we have all this.
If you want to see the best clarity the MSFS Photogrammetry can offer, you need to visit Pamplona in Spain (nearest airport LEPP).
It is NOT done by âartistsâ. Itâs purely data. Perhaps with a bit of hand tidying (but if so, they do tend to miss a lot of obvious artefacts so I doubt anyone is closely checking this stuff haha). Not âHand craftedâ at all soâŠ
âŠyes! 
Yeah noticed this too. Really bad in Coimbra, Portugal.
EDIT: You KNOW you are in Monaco when you can see a Ferrari SF90 in the satellite imagery lol
