Rendering issue for big cities (Xbox S)

Hi all,

Having a very frustrating issue. Everything is fine on my xbox (s) flight simulator other than an odd issue with the rendering of big cities (tested London, Paris, Amsterdam and NY so far). The issue is that while the rest of the world renders beautifully, these big cities look terrible. I was thinking that this might have been due to limited “s” powers but on you tube I came across several xbox s flights over these cities that are rendered just fine.

I’ve got latest world updates downloaded for these cities. Restarted xbox and FS. Cleared the cache.

An example video of London: Xbox Series S - Microsoft Flight Simulator (London) - YouTube

And below is how I see them :frowning:

I appreciate any help


As said this is usually server or internet issue have you tried and internet reset to see if it makes any difference.

I’m assuming your internet has good enough speeds recommended for msfs.

Thanks. Things improved a bit after switched to wired connection, but still nowhere near the videos, still melted buildings but not as bad. It is odd, 350Mbps connection, 28ms latency not sure how much better it needs to be for a decent experience.

Good tip turning off photogrammetry. Obviously it loses all authenticity but way better than leaving it on.

If that 28ms is unwavering and to the MS servers then I am pretty certain the problem is the MS servers for your location … try switching to another location and then switch back half an hour later to see if it’s fixed. Also a hard reset on your Xbox might help.
