EagleSkinner 132 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 A definite "no brainer" buy for msfs. However... The high school road needs attention please. Even if you can fly a Cri Cri under the high school, I think the "mum taxis" and big yellow buses would have problems... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Andreas Hegi 112 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Hi EagleSkinner! Thank you for your feedback! As I see the topographic mesh could be improved at the high school tunnel. I wonder if the recent update of MSFS has made it worse? I have put two or even three terraform polys there to smoothen the area around the tunnel. It's not an easy task as the whole terrain starts to change chape. I see what I can do. OK? Regards Andreas 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
EagleSkinner 132 Posted November 30, 2020 Author Share Posted November 30, 2020 It would not surprise me if msfs updates did cause it. I seem to have to remove all community addons every time and re-install. Couldn't we have something like FSX had, where the position of the scenery file in the library was easy to sort out? They have made addons so difficult to use - it's as if MS/Asobo would rather no one added mods... Thanks Andreas. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jon Clarke 1,901 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 There is no reason to reinstall the addons. Just move the Community folder out of the Packages prior to installing an update, then move back when the update is finished. The update will have noticed no Community folder exists so makes a new blank one. Just delete the new and replace with the old one. I am only mentioning this because you did state that: "I seem to have to remove all community addons every time and re-install." which I am explaining is totally unnecessary.

Nick Cooper 7,042 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Hello, for what it's worth, each time so far that there has been an update, I have forgotten this advice and so far, nothing in the Community folder has been affected at all. An even easier way to make it invisible is to just add an X to the folder name. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nick Cooper 7,042 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Hello, yes of course it does but that is not the point of renaming it. The point in this case is to hide it from the attentions of the MSFS installer. Once the installer has finished, the X should be removed before attempting to use the simulator. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
