1.9.5. Tall buildings not fixed, until Japan files updated

Featured Replies

At least not where I live.. 🙂

Luckily, the 1.9.3. Community fix still works for me.

Yes, it is posted already in the MSFS support forum.

Edit:  FIXING THE JAPAN FILES FIXED IT!

Of course it's not fixed.  Per the patch notes it was "reviewed", not fixed.  A very careful choice of words.  This entire sim is such a giant pile of spaghetti code that you touch one thing and it breaks 5 other things.

Hi Bert

I fixed it by deleting the cache and manually updating the outdated Japan files in the content manager...

Update : not sure deleting the cache is needed at all.

If cache deletion is required for updates to work, then the updater should delete the cache automatically.

It should probably rename the Community folder to Community_old as well and throw up a message to the user to check any mods for compatibility before copying them back to the new Community folder.  That might head off a lot of issues.

How they can't even make a simple updater and launcher work properly is beyond me.

I would bet that updating Japan files is enough, if you would like to retain you cache, check the Japan files first.

How do you update the japan files?

But these files should have been updated automatically with the patch, they should at least inform us that we should update them.

I really don't want to delete my cache after every update/patch. There's a reason I use the rolling cache.

Agreed. Check the Japan files in Content Manager to make sure they are up to date. If not, then update these. It should fix the Tall Building issue.

Try the Japan files update, without deleting the cache.

Hi Aaron,

I happened to delete the cache before updating the Japan files. Not sure at all it is compulsory. I just mentioned it because that's how I proceeded.

Does the high buildings fix take care of T-hangars that are as tall as corn silos, or porta-potties for giants (LOL)?  At this airport IRL those are T-hangars.
