offline photorealistic textures

[Mike44 22]

Hi

created a big msfsCache and flew in my preferred region online. Next day the ugly, non photorealistic textures are back! 🤢

Anything to do? Thanks

No it is still here.  It seems nobody else has this problem. 

The Cache is known to not always operate as intended, so not many people use it.  It was a good concept, but not always practical, especially after updates when it is known to cause problems and it is best to flush / delete it anyway after updates.

Do you really need to use it?  Is your internet connection too slow or metered for normal usage?

As Bob says, the manual cache is a great idea in principal, but unreliable in operation.

I used to fly 90% in the UK so cached a huge chunk of it.   But then started suffering from performance issues and CTDs.  Then there was an update and the sim would not start.   The solution was to delete that manual cache, so do I start building it again?   Or just accept that the manual cache just doesn't work well as intended.

Oh so you managed to avoid the cache overwriting itself? I only want to fly offline with photorealistic textures in my area.-

So the cache is broken?🤢
