Dumb question but where do you see this update? I've been in the Market Place / My Library but I don't see it?

  • I feel like Europe gets more love than the USA. But I’d love to see Caribbean and South America

  • It all depends on what data is available. I would love to see more African updates.

  • Because of FSExpo, the fact Jorg moved to the USA and that it's the 250th anniversary of the declaration of independence.

Chicago and Madison, WI KMSN look good.

Nice, I've spent a lot of in Middleton, just down the road from Madison at our manufacturing plant.

My last visit there was EGBB>LFPG>KDTW>KMSN a year or so ago.

Hmmm, I checked out Chicago and is it just me or does it not look very good?? The buildings all seem very 'dark' to me. I tried all times of day but it was kind of disappointing. I put my DRZ Chicago back in as that looks much better and maybe I was just used to that (??) These PG cities never do much for me since they begin to 'melt' and the night lighting is terrible. I did not notice any glaring issues having DRZ Chicago City installed with this new city update. I also spawned at DRZ KMDW and did not notice any problems but I did not spend much time there so cannot be 100% sure...

They missed a trick not doing at 'World Cup City Stadiums Update' with some/most/all of the WC Stadiums in high detail alongside one or two of those host Cities on a bigger scale, that could've bought them a lot of exposure over the next 6 weeks.

Yeah, and it would probably have been sold to the poor customers for $199.99 (80% cut for the FIFA brown paper bag brigade).

I had to look that up with AI... "The "brown paper bag" or "brown envelope" refers to the long-running era of systemic bribery and corruption within FIFA. For decades, executives and officials used cash-stuffed envelopes and bags to... "

Wouldn't it be nice if it were only FIFA 😉

Exit msfs 2024.

Restart msfs.

City update Illinois will now be "streamed" in stead of unavailable.

For some reason, with this City Update, you have to exit the sim and restart after installing the update, otherwise it shows "Disabled-Not Available" after the install.

I wonder if it will conflict with Samscene3d Minneapolis. I take it we can ditch drzewiecki design chicago landmarks.

I heard from another users that it messes up drzewiecki design midway.

DD also messes up Meigs... Hopefully, there is an update coming.. 😉

Unfortunately, it (the DRZ package) messes up Meigs..
