Something's Rotten in DC

Featured Replies

I've found something odd and I'm hoping to get some help.

I have data and photogrammetry turned on, but when I was recently flying around Washington, everything looked out of place.  The Washington monument looked like a tall, skinny office building, the Capitol building was one floor, looking nothing like the proper thing.  The White House wasn't even there.

Try cycling Data on and off?

If you're seeing the monument as an office building, it sounds like your World Update II (USA) has been deactivated somehow.  DC is not a photogrammetry city currently - the model fix to the monument came from that particular world update.

Good call, you're right.  After installing on a new computer, none of the regional updates are installed; no USA, no Japan, etc.  Activated US on the content manager screen and it is now downloading.  Thanks for the help!

After nearly a year and a half of flying MSFS, I thought I was an experienced user of this sim, but after the recent update I forgot to go into marketplace and install the free Australia scenery upgrade. Then in doing this, I found updates for a half dozen other MSFS areas that I didn't realize were there waiting to be installed! Note to self (and maybe others):  Check addon manager frequently for updates!

To answer your subject line:  That's usually the case...but what does that have to do with Flight Simulator? 😁
