I haven’t received any other reports of that issue, and it loads without any problems on my end. Please try restarting your computer, not just the simulator, and ensure that you have removed the previous version of the add-on.
Yes, MSFS 2024 may still have some unresolved bugs.
uninstalled the add-on over simmarket app, reinstalled with simmarket app. with the add-.on installed it hangs at 60%, thats all i can say. maybe conflicts with other addon.
no idea why you are right, no idea what a pc restart has to do with a folder which is copied into the community folder, or is it because of your installer???
Having worked in PC support for a number of years I can confirm a reboot cures a large number of computer problems, along with either a good kicking or thumping to the side of the tower casing. Unfortunately it doesn’t appear to work with career mode.
I wanted to thank Bijan for the speed and promptness in solving my report on the vegetation regarding the pinaura padana Italy,
thanks.
if I may ask here is it possible to review a bit the deserts of North Africa that I consider a bit too full of palm trees and trees, I do not think that in the desert in Algeria is so full of trees, I post some example images.
Thanks again.
Greetings.
Gary, I get the stuck at 59% issue (for me) and find deleting the subfolder in
C:\Users\YOURUSENAME\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\cache (Note the YOURUSERNAME to change) lets me load the sim. It simply rebuilds that cache file at next launch and lets you move on.
Hi Bijan, just installed your great mod, very happy with it! Would like it if you could add removal of Oslo photogrammetry trees to your list? Also some way too big trees around ENLK airport. Best regards from Norway.
Bjian, thanks for all your regular updates. Really enjoying all the work you are putting in your product. I flew over Turks and Caicos Islands with a helicopter and saw some oddities. I outlined them best I can below.
Edit: I flew from MPBV and made my way around the islands.
Turks and Caicos Island (TCI)
Currently looks like a dense forest out of East Coast of US with Palm trees spinkled in liberally.
Foliage tend to be light green and mostly short with tall trees being rare. Sim generates them dark green and all tall. It feels like flying over Pennsylvania with palm trees.
There are Buttonwood trees, like ones out of Africa in TCI and you can see these quite a bit when driving around. It feels more desert like with buttonwood trees, cactus and shrubs when driving around than tropical. Of course there are palm trees sprinkled around, reminding you that you are in a Caribbean island.
I’ve purchased and tested the Seasons 2024 scenery today. Didn’t expect miracles and didn’t get miracles either but its definitely worth the money if you are regularly flying in any of the regions covered by it, specifically in Africa.
Let me give some feedback.
I very much appreciate the conversion of many trees to bushes in southern Africa. Makes the landscape much more plausible. Not sure it covers all African regions, but at least many touristic hot spots look better now.
Checked out the Canary islands as I know how many places there look in reality and indeed it’s a big improvement. In selected areas trees have been converted to bushes which is better - or actually: far less wrong - than what the vanilla FS2024 hallucinated there. I especially like that the caldera around the Teide volcano is not covered with forests any more.
There is some room for improvement on La Palma. Specifically, all the flat (and rectangular) areas along the coast west of Las Indias are in reality banana plantations and not bushes. (If you look at Google Earth: Everything dense green there is banana plantations and everything white is covered banana plantations. It’s as easy as this.) The very same applies to the coast area around “Charco Verde”, “Puerto Naos” and “La Bombilla” a bit further north and it applies to the area around “Tazacorte” as well. The sheer number and vast area of pure banana plantations characterize the west coast of La Palma and imho thus deserve to be seen from plane. I read you created banana fields, so maybe you can apply them there too?
Since I saw Nuremberg mentioned in the release notes I checked this out as well and honestly, I was disappointed. I saw changes (compared to the vanilla photogrammetry) but didn’t like most of them. Let me explain why:
In some areas of Nuremberg photogrammetry has been removed and now generic buildings show up, some of which are inappropriately oversized. This affects not just single buildings but whole quarters/districts, e.g. “Gleishammer” in the South East ( around 49°26’40"N, 11° 6’41"E). I don’t like a patchwork of areas with generic buildings within a PG city. (Yes, I know how to get the full PG back and probably will remove that specific folder.)
I wonder if you did this change because of some images I posted in another forum thread about trees being too large there, but it was not my intention to have the PG removed at such a scale.
Here are two screenshots from the borders of the affected area, looking North East:
Another area with generic buildings within the Nuremberg photogrammetry is the North East district “Ziegelstein” (north of the road in the screenshot, 49°28’56.6"N 11°06’52.3"E):
You also cleaned up some parks from PG trees, which is great. At the same time, horrible PG trees are still visible in some areas where there are no buildings around, that is, areas which I expect would be easier to clean-up than whole districts. For example have a look at the “Luitpoldhain” park (49°26’3.71"N, 11° 6’23.68"E) near the infamous ruin of the planned Nazi congress hall:
It’s not a request from me that the PG trees get removed there, it’s just an example of where It would make sense imho - apart from airports, of course.
Speaking of the airport: Thanks from removing the PG trees from the vicinity of the Nuremberg airpoirt. This is a welcome change. Maybe you just removed “a bit too much” and this is why whole “Ziegelstein” district is now without photogrammetry (see above)?
