No, the city update is fine.. Meigs included.

It is the DD package that needs to be disabled (for now..)

Here is Meigs in CU15... without the DD package active.. It is as pretty as I remember it from FS2 to FSX 😀

BTW... DD is stating in their support forum that they do not "support de-activated airports" in their scenery packages...

All we are asking for, is to provide an option to exclude Meigs airfield altogether..

This may take some arm twisting to get them to re-consider.. 😉

...and it looks pretty nice! I find Illinois fascinating (as a Canadian-Brit)... places like Elgin very much northern cities (bordering Wisonsin) but then reaching right down to Kentucky, where rural Illinois definitely looks/feels more like the south. 😎

This update has inspired me to install a whole lot of Chicago and surrounding airports, to enjoy the city update with. I bought 4 on the Marketplace (Aurora, Dupage, Joliet, etc) and also some nice freeware from FS.TO (including your very own Lake in the hills and Schaumburg) 🙂

Definitely a cool area to fly around, although unlike New Jersey where I grew up, no mountains.

I disabled the default Meigs and am using guillermozulueta's version along with drzewieckidesign's Chicago Landmarks and am having no issues at all doing this.

I'm using Z Designs 2020 KCGX which is very good with CU15.

It does work, but you are missing out on a really nice rendition of the airfield and its buildings..

I believe this version was done by Gaya and updated for CU15.. shame to disable it..

Is there anything updated in down-state Illinois?

I don't believe so. It was updated for 2024's launch though.

I just noticed the night lighting on the buildings in DT Chicago is just all blocky like it is on most of their buildings at night. Thats too bad. Some of the buildsing in these city updates have custom night lighting.
