Hi,
I don't know why in the world MSFS2020 is doing this strange thing now. First, I launch MSFS2020. When it gets to the opening screen, where you select your aircraft, airport, runway, ext, I select my airport. When the World Map comes up and I set the time of the day, all the objects are now gone. The terminal, all the airport hangars, tress, and everything is gone on this World Map. It's nothing but a map and it looks nothing like it looked before. Here's a screenshot:
What's going on here? The map looks nothing like it did and the terrain looks nothing like it did. This started just all of a sudden. But there is one thing I want to mention. A few weeks ago I posted in another thread that I was getting a message saying that my data is different from the cloud. Here’s what the message said when I first launch MSFS2020:
Which one do you want to use?
The data we have in the cloud is different from the data on this device.
The one on this device (newer)
The one in the cloud (older)
I've been closing it out instead of selecting one of them because I wasn't sure which one to select. I was told to select newer, which is the one on this device. Anyway, I finally went ahead and selected the newer one. The next time I launch the sim, this is when the problem started. Did this have anything to do with the problem I'm having? I hope there's a simple fix and I did not corrupt anything. The message I was getting gave me the choice to select this device or select the data on the cloud. How do I go about setting my data to the cloud? This has got me worried now and wonder if I have to re-install.
