[cchiozza 110]

Now when I start MSFS there is no world map? I can see content mgr, options, etc. Np way to start a flight? Any ideas? Too many IPAs?

I had the happen when I left the Beta13 a few days ago.

Unfortunately, the fix for me was to uninstall and reinstall MSFS. Took me hours over a 2day period.

I have decided to stay away from Beta 13 until I hear the performance issue is resolved.

Good luck. I hope you don't have to take the re install route.

This also happened to me when I left beta 13...

For me, I was able to delete the following folders:

fs-base-ui-pages

fs-base-ui-vr

Once deleted, I started MSFS and it reinstalled those folders. It took a while, but did restore my world map.

This post explains a bit more, but I did not have to delete and reinstall all four folders mentioned. Just the two above.

Oh wow, I flew last night and it was fine. I do have a backup so I guess I can try that route.

I downgraded off of 13 and then went back to 13 and now I have a map. ?? 

[flyblueskies 143]

Well, when I downgraded off of 13, I lost my map. After reinstalling the above files it returned...but I have not gone back to 13 (yet).

It does make sense though...I wish you well. Let us know how the latest 13 works...

[cchiozza 110]

Yes I will report back, now that the map is back I am taking another INC backup then going to downgrade and see.

[cchiozza 110]

Down graded and verified files still no map. I guess its beta only for me.

Its weird that I do not have these folders. I have fs-base-ui. I do not have an Offical folder either?

fs-base-ui-pages

fs-base-ui-vr

It's always good to check the official MSFS forums as well, as the turnover is quicker there. 

The solution that @flyblueskies mentions is from there.  I saw it a few weeks ago and would have suggested it if nobody had posted.
It can also fix the missing title bar issue that people get if rolling back.  I made a note of this just in case I needed

Luckily, it seems the latest beta (.14) from last night is pretty good.  I am quite happy with the stability and performance side of things.

Had a backup and tried the new beta. I ran into issues at the end of the flight with FPS dropping to below 20. Then went back to non beta and NO MAP AGAIN....Unbelievable. Restored a backup and and good again. I cannot believe that more people are not having issues.

I am going to try a long flight on the beta today to see what happens.  How long was your flight before hitting the problem?

I had the issue yesterday. Like above, rejoining the beta quickly solved the issue. And then leaving the beta again may not have the issue again.

Otherwise, I knew deleting those two files would mean a quick 2 minute or less wait for MSFS to search for updates and reinstall them.
