I think you missed the point I was making.

Its a bit of a mess this update procedure. Nothing in the instructions about deleting the older version and Rex still don't factor that some of us use Addons linker. In the list of simulator install versions for example, it says something along the lines of:- 1. Microsoft Store Version 2. Steam Version 3. Community Folder Location. Why cant you add a forth option, 4. Add-ons Linker Rex Accuseason folder location? This would at least put files in the right place and hopefully overwrite the older version so we dont end up with two versions of the program running in parallel. I dont see this needs to be as time consuming and messy as it is now.

This was a must have for me.

Personally I dont see what the fuss is all about. Gaist will host on whatever service the developer approves of and we can download from whichever one that is. Many of us are already downloading from a whole host of different sites anyway, Flightsim.to isnt the be all and end all.

I have not had any issues with the Pilot Plus version of EGGD but Asobo make such a mess of AI its hard to say if its airport related or simply another Asobo problem.

There has been as issue at ESSA, an Asobo airport for over a year, a dirty great crack in the taxiways that they won't sort out so its not just a developer problem. The mesh breaks wherever a PG area shows up too, its particularly evident on waterways and rivers. This is the sort of issue Asobo ought to be finding a solution for.

I only use Marketplace when I am looking to cash in points, otherwise I dont bother. Its not just the encryption that's an issue, its the VERY long wait for updates too.

It's not that simple. Asobo change things and there is not always a way to work with those changes. FSLTL and AIG would have already been modifying the packages if it was a simple case of just updating them.

True but I don't think the dynamic range has a lot to do with the saturation of the ground textures. Its largely the processing of the textures that has given us the washed-out look. Some of the more recent photogrammetry textures have been a lot better and looks far more realistic and dynamic range has not changed, what has is the quality of the images.

So much for the theory that some put forward that the sim is over saturated. The real world is even more colourful. The sim does a very good job during, what photographers call, the golden or magic hour though.

Live ATC is not an option in the UK.

I have tried both. Most of the problems with Asobo live traffic and FSLTL will be solved over time, certainly the slow taxi speeds and rotating aircraft will be. For me, even with the issues, I like the pre-flight prep, the truck push-back, the in-game ATC and MFD traffic integration that FSLTL provides. This is all absent in PSXT and the stuttery movement is an immersion killer for me. I detest stutter of any kind. It would be good if the developers could solve that but perhaps it's another sim connect issue.

That looks good but in Northern Ireland I found Bijans trees placed Pine everywhere where deciduous should be. Also, his product tends to add trees to places where they have no business being. I had to create an exclude for example for the Colosseum in Rome because Bijans product placed trees within the confines of the structure and on some of Romes streets too. People's millage varies of course but for me the pros were beginning to fall whilst the cons climbed.

Well of course it is following the real aircraft point to point 30 times a second so unless there are real go-around's, you don't see them in the sim. But for me the jerky movement, lack of in-game ATC. lack of display on my aircraft MFD, no jetway support or ground vehicle pre-departure interaction is a massive price to pay plus the 90 bucks a year that it costs for the data sampling.

I am hoping the situation may improve when Asobo alter the sim so that flights that are on the taxiways or runways in the real world appear in the same places in the sim when a flight starts. This is, from what I can gather, a change SU11 will bring. Hopefully FSLTL can take advantage of that new feature too and we will get a more realistic simulation and less congestion.
