I have never had an update  this bad. If someone had to reinstall MSFS, it would probably take a  full week at this rate. 

Find the bottleneck I guess.

The same issues appeared during the SU13 update weeks ago. I would ask Asobo/MS where the learning curve is heading to?.

Yeah, and they suggest going to this thread , and trying this work around....Not me....https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/update-resolution-of-sim-update-13-download-installation-issues/610903

Probably releasing it to the whole world at once, instead of limiting it by timezone or something.

That worked really well at release. I, myself, was a temporary resident of Kiribati.

I put mine on to download, then forgot it was there.  It was done by the time I remembered about it several hours later.  I suggest others do the same, stop watching.

Yeah but release day is different to just an update. Release day is 10X bigger.

What beta version are you on? if it is the latest then your sim won't even need to update.

You were 100% right!  Loaded and direct to World Menu with no UPDT!

Spotted someone who didn't read the release notes

Nope didn't get time today lol

a reason to be in the beta then, none of this will happen ..hmmm, maybe I'll opt in...

 

Software releases are the most challenging part of being in IT.

Apart from a couple of pauses the process completed but I am left with a night lighting problem. All my airports (Aobo and addon) have little or no lighting in the buildings and the aprons are dark. Also my world map in the night zones is dark but with really bright high contrast city lights. Daytime lighting looks normal. Anyone else seeing this or know of a fix?

Were you previously using the lighting / skies mod?

Hmm, that's a strange one.  No customized monitor of Nvidia Geforce Experience visual settings?

There were some people reporting some oddities on their first load after the update (such as the spinning circles, or low frame rates).  It always sounds like the ultimate 'fob off' but a PC reboot and relaunch might hopefully correct the issue.

I did try the usual reboots and deselecting/re-selecting airports (using addon linker) but just the same. It is strange. Be interesting to see if anyone else has the same problem.

Not using Geforce and did update nvidia driver to latest to try to fix but that didn't change anything sadly.
