Photogrammetry switch has disappeared

Featured Replies

Hi all,

Strange one this evening.   I just flew a flight in the Fenix A320 and had unusual, stuttery performance with some nasty FPS drops at the 2 payware airports I flew between (Justsim EDDH and RW Profiles EGNT).

After the flight, I went into Settings to see if I could spot anything amiss.

Oddly, in the Online settings, there is no 'switch' for Photogrammetry!  

I checked my network status and all firing strongly.

Anyone seen this before and/or know what it's about?   I restarted MSFS2024 and the PG switch is still missing.

Are MS having server issues and have turned it off?

Do you have any UI mods/addons that could be a factor?

Cause that is super strange hehe.

No, none at all Ryan.  Well, just the "no handlebar" thing, but I've had that since forever and the PG switch is usually there 😄

Haven't installed anything new lately either.

I'm going to keep checking to see if it reappears!

'It is better to be silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.'

I'd rename the Community folder/aka move all out of it.  It has to be some add-on, but what I wonder?

I don't think it's "No Handlebar" because I've used that one before and it didn't destroy my Photogram switch.

It's back!

No changes made, just on a 3rd relaunch (I always relaunch the sim between flight sessions) it reappeared.

A mystery this one! 😄

No mystery really. The AI that writes a lot of the 2024 code was unfortunately fed the entire works of Lewis Carroll and it's been skewing things ever since.

A few odd things happening lately. Last week MSFS2024 vanished from my desktop completely. My XBox library said thad I didn't own it and the only options I had were Gamepass or buy it agin. Eventually I found a little thing that said 'Games played recently' and it showed there. I clicked and the game started. So very frustrating.

Glad, it’s back for you…

Like Ryan said, “that’s super strange…”…It has not happened to me ever in 5+ years in MSFS…

An unsolved mystery…🙂…about the root cause…but I believe your screenshot…
