    Some of us have been blindsided by this one so that we were unable to make a purchase from the MarketPlace.  My last episode occurred because I started the sim as administrator and tried to make a purchase.

    I tried all the other voodoo but ended up resetting the Windows Store as outlined in this link.  Note this is for Windows users only.

    How to get rid of the error messages "Purchase pending" and "Purchase failed" on a Windows 10|11 device – Microsoft Flight Simulator Support (zendesk.com)

    Hope this helps as it can become frustrating really fast for some of us.

    Thing is that now I understand that the Microsoft store and the MarketPlace are tied in some way.

    Cheers

    I‘d say those rocks are hand-placed. They‘re too detailed for photogrammetry. Procedurally placed rocks seems possible as well. That would be something new.

    The second picture is interesting. It does look like photogrammetry, esp. behind the aircraft on the left. But then again the surface is almost too smooth and there are no weird tree/bush artifacts that you usually get with PG. In any case, it looks absolutely fantastic. 

    The rocks in the rescue scenes look great as well, a lot better than the ones we currently have I‘d say.

    Maybe the nice rocks are due to the new engine with AI.  Can't wait.

    I proved to myself GB and GFE have absolutely zero effect on smooth, stutter-free animation as these captures corroborates, done in the PMDG 738 w/ all Ultra settings, thru a 3080Ti.  Frame generation does not solve stuttering--in fact it doubles the number of stutters per unit time, when stuttering is happening.  My method provides ultra smooth animation at modest frame rates:

    I guess that there is no free lunch with FG.

    Curious why you think this.. if improvements to weather (i.e. tornados actually simulated and not scripted/canned), graphics, flight dynamics, etc are coming then tubers definitely would be interested in MSFS 2024 wouldn't they? Unless you're mean if it's just the missions stuff then tubers won't care?
     

    Core changes will most likely make it into the base sim.  So no reason to upgrade for the good (fun) stuff IMO.
