Map Enhancement Mod

Is the Map Enhancement mod still relevent in MSFS2024? Does it work in 2024?

Thanks

IMHO: No. It did weird things with the terrain (mesh...?) in my FS2024 - in FS2020 all is fine.

It caused a lot of issues with my sim. Stay away. 

I’ve really enjoyed the map enhancement mod in 2020.

I’ve not been convinced I need to use it in 2024. The new terrain mesh is outstanding and I really don’t think I want to interfere with that so far.

Fully correct and as I said the "Enhancement" isn't one in my FS2024 - BUT: The bing data is (at least in southern Germany/north Switzerland) awfully old - judged from my real-life POVs (at least) 6-8 years. The Enhancement Mod outperforms stock data in this regard.

 

Neverless: It's in my (crowded...😜) FS2024 holding pattern.

In my opinion, the improvements in the 2024 base simulator negate the need for this mod!

I used it in 2020 and will concur with the others that this is definitely not needed in 2024....

It's not needed in 2024, but I still use it because I prefer google maps instead of Bing. But it works fine in 2024.

It's working 100%, even with the subscription-based Apple Maps Pro. But I'm not usually using it - I think default Bing Maps are quite good in EU and NA

That just why there's a selection menu, you can choose what's good for you.

Doesnt it give better resolution of faraway mountains, or is that my eyes deceiving me?  

It did a great job in revitalising 2020, which actually looks like a new sim at times for me. But for a brand new sim that is still getting patched? Not needed or else how would you even know how much better it looks? 

Buy a used car? Sure let's fix it up with a new paint job. Forked out for a brand new one? No! Leave it be and enjoy the neighbours watching enviously from behind the curtains. 

The devs on official forums have labeled it as practically 'malicious' btw.

I can out-do that!  The IKEA store near YSCB here in Canberra is shown as just a collection of earthworks, but it was opened in 2015!

Does LittleNavmap work yet?

in the settings part of thr map enhancer there in now a choice between 2020 & 2024 - I find it works well in both
