February 16, 20215 yr There’s a lot more PoI in London than I expected, considering the photogrammetry
February 16, 20215 yr This is in the known issues: Quote A crash occurs when loading into 3rd Party Community content with Bing Data enabled. So they haven't fixed it? 🤔 AMD Ryzen 7 7800X3D, 64GB DDR5 6000MHZ RAM, RX7900XT, FreeSync 165hz 1440p display
February 16, 20215 yr I'm surprised they've added so many London POI's given the existence of Orbx London but hey ho let's see how it looks in comparison.
