Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Latest version: v1.3 (2023)
Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
For me its crashing when selecting any gate. From the "world" planning page I select KORD as my departure and select my arrival airport, have tried KATL and KJFK. Set to high altitude airways, then go select a parking gate, after clicking the gate and when clicking set as my departure it crashes. So far its been 100%. I have however been able to fly into KORD with no problem. The scenery looks great just cant load there.
Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Also ive been using the latest A320NX, don't know if that has anything to do with it.

Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Thanks for all info - we will check it again, although after last change everything was working fine. It's always troublesome to find a cause of problem if the scenery works for some users and for some other ones it doesn't.
Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Hello! I'm not sure where I send suggestions. But as a lifelong Chicagoan this addon is absolutely stunning! Spent almost 4 hours straight just flying around with your addon!
My two main suggestions involve two of our other biggest landmarks. Wrigley Field and Guaranteed Rate Field... where the Cubs and the White Sox play.
I didn't see much detail in those as I flew by them. The bing data has the area around Wrigley is a couple of years behind since that's now a booming area with a lot of new construction after they won the world series. I think the whole wrigleyville should be taken into consideration since i consider the area to be a popular tourist spot now. Also, Maggie Daley Park downtown next to the bean still seems outdated! I mainly blame the Bing maps data for not updating...
Also, the smaller details like the Chicago River & Riverwalk. I saw you added the elevated train which was a nice touch, so I thought maybe the river & bridges also needed a little bit more lifelike since it's the most visible downtown beside the skyscrapers. Lifelike as in more tour boats, kayaks, water taxi etc like in the video seen below

Also maybe a touch of our iconic street lanterns on Wacker Drive as well and closer to the helipads or by other iconic landmarks close to ground

Sorry for long post, but since I lived here for so long just thought id offer feedback on something I see every day
I feel when the helicopters finally come out most of these details will be vital as more people will be flying much lower!
Anyway, Much love to you guys!

Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
I want to say that I have purchased your products for P3D X plane and MSFS. I have been very happy with the quality.
I reinstalled Flight Simulator and installed this. Chicago Landmarks does not show up at all. I even purchased thru Orbx as well as Simmarket. No change.
Help.

Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Fantastic work on this set! I live in Chicago and am amazed at how well this is done. Congratulations.
I did just want to confirm the CTD some people have reported when spawning at KORD. I have the FSTD KORD addon, if I spawn on a runway everything is fine. If I select a gate or ramp in the map planner, for example SW ramp 1, I can get an immediate CTD on selection of the parking spot (I don't even have to do FLY). But on occasion this does work ok.

Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Are we talking about KORD from FSDT or default one?
Thanks - each suggestions are appreciated and can help us to improve our sceneries.
Please elaborate - you reinstalled MSFS and now you are not able to install Chicago Landmarks? The installation process is done, but landmarks are not visible? Have you done the clean install? There was no old files somewhere?
Hi, can you confirm that CTD happens even with the recently - published fix? Is it the same with the default KORD? Any errors in the event log?flyingchicken wrote: ↑Wednesday 16 Dec 2020, 21:08 can get an immediate CTD on selection of the parking spot
Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
KORD- default premium deluxe for me.
Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
I did a clean install again. I installed Chicago Landmarks first before anything else (no manual because of decompression error). The landmarks are now there. I will let you know if ok after everything else is installed.

Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
I will test with default KORD, but I did get an error in the event log, which I'll paste below. Not sure if that's helpful. This definitely is intermittent, it doesn't occur every time:Martin_Starski wrote: ↑Wednesday 16 Dec 2020, 22:35Hi, can you confirm that CTD happens even with the recently - published fix?

Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Hi.
And what happens if you use the original fix? Does it fix the problem?
Please put THIS FILE into drzewieckidesign-chicagolandmarks\scenery\world\scenery (overwrite the original file).

Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Is this a newer file than what you have shipped in version 1.1?

Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Nope, it's the same.
In case of default KORD we are not able to replicate any CTD. Maybe there is something in the compatibility between Chicago Landmarsk MSFS and KORD by FSDT With default KORD do you have the same problem?
We see the problem with default KMDW, so we are trying to find out what is causing this. Sorry for problems, but it's something very new for us and we need to find the way to fix it.

Re: Chicago Landmarks MSFS
Martin, I think it is fair to say that I know you guys will get it right. I'm in no rush. I'll monitor this forum moving forward for some news.
