Hi,

Thanks for the heads up

Although I am using MSFS2024 more often these days, I still do like some things with MSFS2020.  Therefore as as  Kiwi I did mise having the POI in 2020 (which if disabled avoided the CTD)  Its good to note this has now been fixed.

Best wishes.

Bob 

Anyone else getting a DXGI error when launching a flight? The sim starts up fine, but loading a flight triggers the error. I installed the newest Nvidia driver, but still got the error, so I backinstalled two versions back, thinking that should fix it. Nope.

This was not happening before the update.

Do a clean install of your GPU drivers using DDU.

Did a clean install using the Nvidia utility. Reset some things in Control Panel and now back in business...annoying!

I keep getting "error"when trying to download update, any ideas?

Try restarting your PC.

Just a friendly reminder to update your DLSS file after the update.  I forgot, and I couldn't figure out why my speed and altitude tapes were so blurry after the update.  Updated my DLSS back to 310.5.3 and now all good.

This update took about 5 to 10 sec. so why it took about a half year to update MSFS2020 - so annoying !! 🤔

In my set-up it took about 30 mins. Now when loading the sim ( FS2020) when it gets to Looking for Updates it takes 5-10 secs. where as before it used to take minutes.

Just wondering if anybody is having issues with the MSFS Map Enhancement Tool with this update

It seems like in areas where Photogrammetry and satellite textures meet ( in an around 10NM radius around) , textures do not load properly. Border between PG and ME textures. 

When i turn PG off, everything works fine.

The tool imagey provider will need to implement PG exactly as MSFS does.
