Hello @Hester40MT

Thanks for your reply. The post has been editied.

Note that the system doesn’t load up extra detail when you zoom the camera in, so zoomed views look much worse than regular views, especially on photogrammetry scenery which has… very aggressive polygon decimation on low levels of detail and is a bit limited in resolution at the best case too. :slight_smile:

Thanks for your reply, @Vibstronium

In low altitude straight ahead of me also looks just like this. I understand that zooming the camera would result in a much worse views but even when its not zoomed it and just a fly over it still looks the same. Is the sim supposed to be looking like this?

Some folks seem to see much worse display than I do (it never looks this bad to me unless I zoom way in) but this seems 1) worse in some cities, like London specifically because of how the data was made specifically in that and several other cities and 2) can definitely be A LOT worse depending on your terrain level of detail (200 looks consistently decent for me, but it affects performance), and 3) can be worse if your connection to Microsoft’s data download servers is slow or flaky, which may or may not be the same as when your downloads from other web sites are slow or flaky.

See the above-linked thread for months’ worth of discussion on this issue. :smiley:

The MS servers have been having a lot of issues lately. While I’m not seeing the melted scenery I am having other issues with the severs. Every single flight I lose ATC voices. And during flights I’ll sometimes get a message that my internet isn’t working and I have been switched to offline mode. It’s not my internet. It’s the MS servers. I have AT&T Gigabit Fiber and my internet is rock solid.

I see, Thanks everyone for their replies
