Not going to be available for a while as I am reloading everyone to fresh installations so I can compare apples to kumquats - or pineapple to coconut. . .
without any confusion or interferance from any add-ons I may have installed.
This may take days, especially with MSFS as it takes eons to install, but I will do just that when I can.
OK, I’ll bite. Why should the absence of streaming data affect the baseline accuracy of their map data? Just about every previous version had reasonably accurate data - railroads, roads, major local landmarks were all there. Of course you could buy fancy scenery packs for $$$, but it wasn’t absolutely mandatory. If you were flying into smaller airports like Worcester, Fitchburg, or Concord, the scenery was accurate enough that you knew where you were.
Flying over Moscow wasn’t photometric, but it was reasonable and recognizable.
MSFS 2020 is something like 250+ gigs for the Premium Edition, fully installed and updated - I can’t believe that reasonable baseline scenery doesn’t exist.
