paulk Posted September 28, 2022 Author Share Posted September 28, 2022 Thanks, are you in Washington State BradB? I am UK I have a feeling it’s delayed. Wonder if a Hotfix post SU10 may also be coming out causing the delay? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulk Posted September 28, 2022 Author Share Posted September 28, 2022 A most beautiful part of the world - I’m jealous. Spent some time in Seattle years ago but mainly north of the boarder in Vancouver and British Columbia and the Islands (hence my excitement for the WU11 Canada update). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulk Posted September 29, 2022 Author Share Posted September 29, 2022 I have downloaded and installed, sadly not had much time to fly any of it yet. I had a quick go but kept getting a connection lost message, even though my internet was all on and working, wondered if it was a Microsoft server issue due demand. Has anyone tried it yet? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmb Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 WIll take some time to find which of my numerous Canada Addons (Payware and Freeware alike) do work/don't work and are better/worse than the new Default Canada. Anyway, this looks absolutely stunning. MS/Asobo do a great work with those World Updates. Kind regards, Michael 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulk Posted October 1, 2022 Author Share Posted October 1, 2022 Had a few good trips, seem to have strange mesh issues near Victoria on Vancouver Islands, like raised lakes. I notice the issue has been raised on MSFS website. Also strange how they didn’t make CN Tower in Toronto as a POI. Although, there is a local airport add on that does replace it. Vancouver Airport add on from FSimStudios looks good, but the boats they add now have strange wake effects. I’m told a fix is only days away. Apart from minor points rest looks good. Should get more time to explore next week. What’s everyone else’s observations, it seems good to me so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apart from Edmunton, the big cities seem to be full of melted buildings and bridges. Toronto and Vancouver are certainly the worst examples. WU11 seems ok for bush flying but don't go near built-up areas! It's no wonder that I like True Earth products from Orbx . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulk Posted October 2, 2022 Author Share Posted October 2, 2022 I wonder why that is, NYC is very good and that’s got a lot more buildings. Must be how Asobo have sampled them maybe? Orbx there is a great business opportunity here for you guys to do some Canadian cities much like the excellent work you did with the Australian cities (please). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I suspect that it's not the technology, more a case of what Asobo does with it before release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulk Posted October 3, 2022 Author Share Posted October 3, 2022 Managed to spend a while flying around various parts of Canada. Really beginning to like this update now. I remember something Nick said a long time ago. Fly realistically at a VFR altitude of 1500ft and everything looks ok. Fly a few hundred fleet AGL then the buildings do and will look like jelly. I am happy at VFR 1500ft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am happy at VFR 1500ft Yes, Vancouver for instance looks like melted butter but then so does so much MSFS2020 city sceneries not just in Canada. Tried to taxi my 172 float plane up to the Vancouver Harbour Seaplane Base..not a pretty sight Edited October 4, 2022 by Bassman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am happy at VFR 1500ft True but in November, the helicopters make their official entrance in the sim. Helicopters are often landing on rooftops, landing pads and free space in big cities. PG is not suitable for this type of flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That depends in large part on your bandwith and of course also on your pc specs and your settings. I made the experience that lowering my graphic settings on my ancient system improved the looks of pg. And when all of the others in the family are streaming videos when I am simming, the quality of pg will decrease. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be but I see excellent PG cities (Barcelona, Orlando, Tokyo, Seattle to name a few) alternating with bad melted ones (London, Paris, Vancouver) on the same computer and same day. Microsoft (Jorg) already stated that it depends on the source they can get. The original Vancouver PG was better than the version in WU11. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microsoft (Jorg) already stated that it depends on the source they can get. The original Vancouver PG was better than the version in WU11. Agree. There are pretty good PG cities like Tokyo and Seattle and letdowns like London and now Vancouver, all on my very same system and bandwith and settings. I tried numerous settings/cacheing approaches to improve London to no avail time ago. I recall Jorg speaking himself about poor data for London and his intent to redo it in the future. Unfortunately this was already quite some time ago and nothing happened since. Even less understandable, they released a redone PG Vancouver and Toronto in the present state. If there were no better data available they should have let them as they were (which was quite acceptable, in my mind).

paulk Posted October 8, 2022 Author Share Posted October 8, 2022 Out of interest, just released on FlightSim.com is a PG freeware version of Vancouver. Downloaded and installed it but not had time to try it out yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulk Posted October 10, 2022 Author Share Posted October 10, 2022 If anyone is interested the Freeware version of Vancouver I think is very good and currently in continuous development Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
