I like the XP lighting but what I do not like is the lights popping up in grids out ahead of you. It is not as noticeable down low 1-2000 feet but coming down from FL's it appears that XP is trying to light up every rural road in existence. It's the only real thing I dislike in XP at the moment but it's tolerable....

Yup. I see there are still the same issues now that I reported to them over a year ago when I tried it for a couple months. They claim to fix stuff but same stuff is always broken. All the "AI fluff" was added to make up for the fact they will never be able to get the structural ATC to work all that well (IMO).....

I've been in XP12 for about a month and wasn't going to buy much until I knew I would continue using it. Well, I bought a few airports on sale over the weekend and even though I swore I wasn't going to do it (since I recently bought the HS Challenger), I did end up buying the Toliss A-321 + NEO and the KOSP sound pack. What a treat...😁

Hey Mike...I think you are supposed to disable SimHeaven #7 Forest entry when using Global Forest. And also, the latest I read was Global Forest was best placed at the bottom of the Scenery.ini. Seems to work fine for me....

2024: Any way to see distant ai ships and planes?
Flic1 replied to BBCM's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
The LOD behavior in 2024 is extremely/overly aggressive. I am working on a couple airport projects with custom 3d models and it is a challenge to not have even simple shells of a building at the lowest LOD's not appear/disappear. I thought so as well....?? -
And then add a bunch of AI traffic....😆 Anyway...looking forward to this one...

I am new to XP as of a few weeks ago and mostly flying the HS Challenger. I started using the XP Enhancement map with the Bing maps along with SimHeaven. I am finding that XP is a superior 'high-flyer' sim. It does looks amazing up at altitude with new atmospherics and clouds and is a much more believable sight over what I see in MSFS. I find on approach once you start getting below 5-6000 it starts getting less great (except at night it looks awesome down at lower altitudes and road traffic is great)). Once on the ground I then find it superior once again for the most part even at default airports. I really dislike the PG tree blobs in MSFS which are still very evident on default airport grounds and even around the perimeters of payware airports. I just finished a freeware airport for MSFS 2024 and made sure to eliminate any of those blobs that were visible from the airport grounds.

iFly did an excellent job on their sounds, especially the ground roll/braking etc and I prefer them over the PMDG sounds. PMDG has always lacked in the ground roll sound dept.....hopefully they improved that aspect on their latest 777 (??)

If you are still using MSFS 2020 and want to fly around the mid-atlantic area, I will shamelessly plug my freeware KFDK: https://flightsim.to/file/42007/kfdk-frederick-municipal-airport-frederick-md
