All polls other than ones related to download/install are deliberately closed for now. We will open these polls for voting after simmers have had a chance to use SU16 for at least a few hours.

Edit: all polls are now open for voting!

Install was lightning fast and smooth.

Setting up for an 8 hour flight, fingers crossed.

Not looking forward to this. Was thinking of flying tonight. Guess I’ll pass to let the dust settle.

Can anyone confirm the planned satellite imaging rewrite that wasn’t mentioned in the notes?

Uh… I’ve just been flying around a couple hours ago in Barcelona, my home town, so once the update is installed I’ll be able to compare the new scenery… fingers crossed (and I’ll just drop this… more than one year since the 7th busiest airport in Europe is broken Missing terminal at LEBL barcelona airport)

Once content manager is done, close out and re-launch and check again.

Had a couple more pop in after the first round.

Is there anything else folks would recommend doing after a Sim Update? I’d like to have the smoothest experience!

13

You don’t need to do anything.

[Moderator edit: please do not ping the Community Managers] Is the bing data migration still in progress? I can see morphing ground tiles and trees everywhere now, not previously found in beta. I think from the symptops it’s server issue.

17

Isn’t this correct - in that they’re building a new zipline ride that ends at Steep Holm? :wink:

Hello @n772ua,

Can you please post a screenshot (or even better, a short video clip) of what you are describing here?

Thanks,

MSFS Team

isn’t there a plan to improve the light and sky colors too ? Especially in the times or sunrise and sunset. It would fit better with the new textures.

No please no!!!. Don’t touch the sky or atmosphere, then it WILL look just like 2024. If you want that, then fly 2024.
