• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

I just had the misfortune to read a rant from someone who is complaining about the accuracy of the mapping. Apparently it is out of date, His house was built four years ago but he flew over it and it wasn't there. I am going to fly over my house (here since 1830) but I really need to count the sheep in the front field - I would be mortified if they count is not right and frankly the one trying to break in an eat the veg garden is JUST NOT THERE Duh! I am asking for my money back

Lol, my 70 year old house and the four next to it appear to be the only ones missing from my town. You can see them on the ground tile but it looks like the AI confused them with shadows from the nearby trees. Do you think I could get a refund?!

You guys are smiling. But you can betcha that in real life there is actually somebody out there livid that his house is missing, and he/she is going full angry Donald duck.

These are absolute game breaking bugs if you ask me. They should pull it from the online stores. Can't believe they didn't account for every building in the world. Such lazy work. How did that even make it past beta?

I want to revert my neighbourhood to match the sim: in the 10 years since the images were taken, all the fields out back have been built on, and now it's horrid . . .

Our humble abode shows as an 8-bedroom villa with double garage and outdoor pool. I’m taking this up with the builder, I expect better than a 2-bed semi with shared driveway!

The rock formations I made recently in the front yard are completely missing and I'm losing my mind, I want my money back! :p Oh yeah, my mail box is missing too. Maybe we should hire a law firm and look at a class action lawsuit.

Maybe the United States Postal Service removed the mail box? - too many on one street?

My apartment block, the parking lot in front of it and even the trees on it are accurately represented in OpenStreetMap data (and therefor in any flightr simulaor using it). Unacceptable!

it is undeniable that there is a "pivotal time" in the sim :)
