Chicago Landmarks MSFS

[DD Stanislaw]

The backlog at the Marketplace is currently about 3 months long, so it might probably be published around late May (this is entirely up to the Marketplace team).

Thanks for the update! I do like the changes to the lighting, although I think the city lights should probably be visible from a little further out as I notice they only switch on now when you're much closer.

[Haggu]

It seems I'm unable to edit my original post but I forgot to add that this is running the sim at 1080p with my terrain level of detail set at 120 and my object level of detail at 100. I did turn up the object level of detail to 200 to see if that made any difference and it did but I found the lights were still turning on much closer than they should. At least in my opinion. Especially considering my usual settings used to show the lights from KORD no problem.

Thanks for sharing - we will take a look, but let's also bear in mind that sometimes it's necessary to make compromises to find a golden mean between performance and detail level.

[DD Stanislaw]

Hi. This is done for performance conservation as the last LOD model has no textures applied.
It looks ok in 4k though.

[Danni]

okay thanks.
Last time I buy anything on marketplace then.

Hello,

Did a flight from KORD to KSEA tonight. I was experiencing drastic FPS drops during approach to KSEA. Unfortunately was unable to land the 737 since it was bottlenecking. Are there current issues with the Chicago and Seattle landmarks? Is it best to remove these addons temporarily or is there a hot fix on the way? I can land anywhere else but Chicago and/or Seattle seems impossible at this point.

[DD Stanislaw]

Are there current issues with the Chicago and Seattle landmarks?

Hi. We haven't heard of such issues before as most of our customers fly there without any problems. Perhaps something else might have caused that FPS drop.

Will version 1.3 also be compatible with the Chicago Meigs Pro addon?

[Nkurun]

The one done by Z designs

[Martin_Starski]

We didn't make such compatibility test, but theoretically it might work too.

[kmelz]

So just confirming with the latest update,

Is the MS KCGX supposed to be at a -1 or 1 priority in order for both to work?

[DD Stanislaw]

Frankly, it is compatible with Z Designs.

Our scenery should have a lower priority - be higher on the list. KCGX should be placed on the bottom line.

Hello. I bought off simmarket. I'd prefer to go back to version 1.2 . Is that possible?

[DD Stanislaw]

Hello.
It is possible if you have the previous installer backup up on your hard drive.
