3GB mandatory update tonight, could it be the fix!!?!?

Are you in the beta program? The AAU2 beta released today.

Ahhh yes, I am probably still from previous beta. I didn’t even know it was releasing today.

There were two updates, one when clicking on the game then another from loading screen

One is the application, itself, and the other is the 747 and 787 (if applicable).

And, yes, the beta arrived early!

@NixonRedgrave wow what a pleasant surprise. 747 looks great so far

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?

Yes

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

Since WU Oceania both LOD and draw distance have suffered tremendously

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:


Example of draw distance

Same issue on Xbox series x, lod have decreased significantely and I’ve also got elevation problems (water leaking on surface, or coastal glitches)
I’ve already try uninstalling, removing mods, clearing rolling cache…
No changes
Please devs, look into it and fix it once for all !
I’m on the lastest beta and the issue is still there

I noticed that on some Greek islands as well… I think on Leros or Kos… suddenly had drastic seacliffs instead of a gradual slope down to the beach. XSX

Landed today at KDFW which is one of bespoke sim airports. Looked absolutely terrible, look at the runway and taxi lines…

Yes I get that a lot, even from the cockpit the textures go from fuzzy to crisp sometimes only when you are right on top of them.

If that happens again, it might be worth checking online features, as that almost looks like offline textures to me.

Nah, offline looks much better than this. It never reported a loss of connection and usually does when I do lose connection

I am having the same issue. Can’t get to the bottom it. KDFW

I am on PC.

unfortunately, i do not fly anymore from or to islands because costlines are just awfull.

this has already been a problem for a long time

The very sharp seacliffs are a new phenomenon, started with World update Oceania. It appeared around Leros island for example.

There isn’t any way to get to the bottom of it. It’s a major bug at Asobo’s end. It’s not our end or our equipment. - It’s game breaking, and they should put all efforts into fixing the blurry ground textures, broken PG and terrible LOD.

For some reason the past 3-4 days, the sim has looked much better.

The ground textures now seem better looking from high altitudes, but it will suddenly get really weird, and then back to ā€œnormalā€. Anyone else having this issue?

I’m seeing this behaviour for months. One day the textures are pristine, the next time they are blurry. All with the same connection speed, cable 100 Mbit.

And you’re educating me on that because?

I’m already aware it has no impact on speed

Many people repeatedly ask ā€œwhat server are you usingā€ or suggest to ā€œswitch serversā€ or mention what ā€œserverā€ they are using when discussing these graphical-related problems associated with ā€œthe serversā€.

I’m simply using your post as an opportunity to remind people who may not know that changing the server has no bearing on graphic quality.

Whether that is you or not, I have no idea, but since you mentioned ā€œSE Serverā€ in a thread entirely devoted to graphical quality, it seemed relevant to utilize it as a teaching moment for anyone who doesn’t know this.
