Hmm, still getting tiles loading which is very distracting. Has happened with every version of the mod that I've tried over the years. I was using ArcGIS, high LOD, cache 5, TLOD (AutoFPS) 975. FL280. Any remedy for this?

 

Photogrammetry off fixes the problem.

    Bing Latest is pretty amazing and much better than Google Maps. It does feel like an MS2024 preview.

Do the new Bing maps have green roads?

No, they are proper grey roads in my first time testing today.

After a flight from Patna, India to Kathmandu, Nepal, I'm pretty impressed with the mod. Latest Bing maps worked well for this region. High LOD textures looks great.

I only have TLOD=150 and don't have the loading problem at FL 400 in Southern California with ARCGis.  With SU15 the tiles resolve pretty much out to the horizon so 150 seems best for my rig.  Also no PG.

It doesn't seem a great idea to me, I like the PG and it makes the scenery much more real, otherwise you'll get ugly cubes in the city. This mod is very good for GA 10k ft flights, but not for liners, especially if you fly at night.

I heard that you lose all the msfs grass in airport sceneries with this mod, is that confirmed?

If I may say, you are mistaken due to lack of experience, photogrammetry is only ok in certain very specific situations. Seeing a large city in the distance which resembles a field of lifeless potatoes is far from realism, you will grant me that.

Only if you put photogrammetry off, it's the same problem with MSFS by default.Nothing to see with Google Map Enhancement

After your eleborate response with instruction I tried it and it indeed does look a lot better.

I had no idea that set up was so easy.

Thanks!!

I'm be wrong with this app, but not due to lack of my experience in general with flight sims, photogrammetry is essential for me on all flight situations, this is my personal preference. Anyway, I tested again the map enhancements app again today, with PG off and on, and I can't see differences with the terrain forming tiles at distance, but the so called "aerosol" fortunately mitigates the problem. Also, setting the LOD at 200 helps, but the CPU fans are working like a supersonic turbojet. Setting the cache at 30GB helps too, but the problem is still there, but the advantage to have crispier sceneries go over this problem, especially if you fly VFR.
