Chicago Landmarks MSFS

[DD Stanislaw]

Yes, we too.
Currently, we are not sure if this is a new "feature" or a bug that will be fixed in the next sim update.

Does this issue only happen when trying to start at a gate at MDW or ORD? I got a CTD approaching ORD over the lake in the Neo but was able to fly around the city taking off from FSDT ORD starting on the active runway in a prop. I hope this gets fixed soon!!

I've just purchased the landmarks, and now getting a CTD when spawning at KORD on a runway or at a gate in a Neo. Uninstalled the landmarks and everything is OK. Not tried other aircraft or tried flying in to KORD yet with the landmarks installed, will try later when I get some time. Also getting the weird elevation issues near the aquarium with the landmarks installed.

Hi, we know the issue and I can assure you that we are constantly looking for the fix (it is still somehow related to ICAO names of heliports) but it is not fully consistent yet. As soon as we have such fix we will post it.

Thanks, and a Happy New Year to you all

Hello,

This is a great scenery! My I first tried it by landing at KORD from KDFW.
Then I flew the drone around the city.

I have v1.1 and have a CTD when selecting starting at any gate. Every time. I pulled the folder out and am able to start at the gate, but 10 minutes after take off and a frequency switch I had another CTD. This possibly is unrelated, but occurred.

I tried the new *.bgl file and still have the same problem.

Any further updates and fixes would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks!

It's a known issue (if you read up further) with the heliports. They're working on a solution and will release an update. For now, I uninstalled the scenery until it's fixed. It is indeed gorgeous and I can't wait to put it back in. KORD will work fine once you do.

[Martin_Starski]

Exactly - we will try to provide a fix a.s.a.p.

Hello DFWSupertrooper,

Ya, once I started having issues I started a search and found the forum in the Installation Manual.
For now I just moved the folder out of the Community folder and on to the Desktop.
From the airport the city looks terrible and jagged.
Looking forward to the fix because the scenery looks awesome!

Hi.
I just purchased and installed the Chicago Landmarks scenery.
Suddenly, I am experiencing the simulator crashing every time I select a departure location from the World Map at any airport in the metro Chicago area.

I get an AFC Bridge error (See the attached image)

Chicago_Landmarks_Issue_2021-01-09_2-47-10.jpg

The AFCBridge is the driver from Honeycomb Aeronautical for the Bravo Throttle Quadrant.
I have flown numerous times with the Bravo Throttle Quadrant from several locations all over the world,
and never have had any issues until now.

I removed the Chicago Landmarks scenery from the Community folder and the problem went away.

[Martin_Starski]

Hi, we know about the issues with crashing sim when our users want to choose stands for departure, but so far it was classic CTD without any error. In your case there is the error of a driver, which is completely unknown for us and we even do not have any idea what can cause it. There is a chance that the source of the problem is the same and this error is only the final result of the original problem and thus we will be able to provide the fix soon.

Hi.
Thank you for the report!
The new MSFS update introduced some more issues but we will take care of all of them.

Hi, i have the same issue...

Thanks for reporting this. We will do our best to solve the issues in the nearest future.

Hello Drzewiecki Team... I'm also experiencing CTD when trying to start from the ramp. I'm not gonna sugarcoat how nice things are because they're not. Your mod cost money, and from what I see you couldn't solve the issue for the past month. I also feel disappointed in the fact you didn't include KPWK executive airport with this landmark mod. The whole thing is extremely poorly optimized. I'm running it on a "no money factor" rig with 3090 RTX and still, I have a huge frame drop when looking toward the city.

[Martin_Starski]

Please believe me that we are trying to solve it, but this is something unexpected, which is also being caused by the strange behaviour of MSFS. For sure we will not leave it as it is and as always we are very focused on solving the issue a.s.a.p. I can assure you that nobody is more interested in this than we are.

I have a huge frame drop when looking toward the city.

This is the first such report - in all other cases we heard about very good performance. What are your sim settings?
