France & Benelux World Update (1.15.7.0) is now live!

I worked for a Belgium company before I retired and traveled there many times. Tonight I got in the Arrow and just flew around some of the small Airports near Brugge, and Brussels. It is amazing how realistic it looks. And FPS are solid... They did a great  job with this update. 😀

The Netherlands and Belgium seems to have autogen churches. Only countries of the 4 that I can see that has received them.

Great update. Installed all 3 parts in about 40 minutes. She fired right up and runs fantastic. No fuss, no muss.

It is refreshing to see positive comments and higher fps, for once.

so far this is the worst update for me. I have been trying to download the update in the game and have had to restart about 20 times now to get the full files. I am also very disappointed that the big announcement for aircraft models is two measly liveries for planes we already had before and not to mention with the megapack there are the same liveries and plenty more. Boy assobo really has us all by the you know what, They give us crumbs of the things we have been asking for and we just jump to get them. Is this the way it's going to be every time?

That's not what it was.

The models that might have come today were for the AI. We didn't go those, it seems like they were delayed. There are Live Traffic updates coming with the next Sim Update, so they might come then.

They did announced 2 new player aircraft with the Q&A, an Ultra Light coming in 2 weeks, and an ATR plane coming on 2022, co-developed with Aerosoft.

I'm so excited about the ATR and that they have Hans onboard.  The ATR was amazing when released for FSX and the  MSFS preview looks stunning.

but do you think that the sim update will give us more models and better realsim? I don't think it's that important to them but they are still making hard for ai developers who just want to release something for us. If Assobo want's to control ai then just create that feature and be done with it. I am so happy for people who are developing models and liveries and I think that Assobo will crush them and make us wait while they decide what they want to do.

I haven't flown for a long after update but FSUIPC seems working fine for me. I do not have any hardware setup via FSUIPC though

All GoFlight TQ6 hardware setup made through FSUIPC are unusable.

I have my Yoke set up via FSUIPC and it works just fine 🙂

Thanks Bert. my GF TQ6, PFC yoke and rudder pedals were not recognised anymore and FSUIPC was not keeping my setups made in the past. 

Re-installation of hardware drivers did the trick, FSUIPC was not affected.

I did 20 so flights today (not full, just popping all over the place to check out the new stuff) and never lost my live weather once. Worked every time.

Has anyone lost their live weather so far with this update?

I wonder if MS will "subsidize" the ATR as an "Official MSFS Plane" so it's like $9.99, or if it will have the full Aerosoft type price?

(Personally I think they should make it cheap as a partial compensation for everything we will have endured as unpaid Betas testers of the overall sim by the time it comes out)

It may be me, but these do not seem to be included?

If Asobo are jointly working with them on it, I expect it'll probably be cheaper than "usual", if maybe not $10.  Imagine it'd come down to what the contract is - if Asobo are contracting Aerosoft to work on it (like the airports in the world updates from Gaya etc.), or if it's literally a revenue-sharing thing.
