Describe the bug

Please describe the bug in detail to help me understand the scenario

Hi derekhe: I spend several hours today and have some new findings: I found this mod is partially working on my MSFS2024.

(1) It shows google map properly in some area , such as Grand Teton National park https://www.google.com/maps/@43.726589,-110.6981499,21554m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!7m1!2e1?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTExOS4yIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D

But there are two marks (red circled in the 1st attached image) is still visible even though the image in google does not have them. Also, in MSFS2020 I don't see them when using this mod with google image.

(2) For some area, such as Yellowstone Nation park https://www.google.com/maps/@44.2878258,-110.4903414,85406m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m2!7m1!2e1?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTExOS4yIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D This mod does not work at all (no google image, only the default bing map).

(3) Also in the area of east San Jose, California https://www.google.com/maps/@37.4000779,-121.8534956,1245m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI0MTExOS4yIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D It shows a very blurred image (most likely bing map) on top of the google image. See the 2nd attached image.

Here is my setting on this mod (see attached image #3 and #4): 1.MS Store is selected 2.MSFS2024 is selected 3."Delete MSFS2024's rolling cache when start" is selected

  1. "Enable High LOD" is NOT selected.

Would you please check those locations and see if my observation can be repeated. Thanks!

By the way, how do I tune the color to extreme. I think the color function is disabled for Free version, right?

What I see is the photogrammetry data is there. You can turn off the photogrammetry then you can see the maps. In some areas, like the very beautiful parks, MS provide you with mesh models, which also covers the satellite images. We can't turn this off.

(1) For Grand Teton Area, I got google image but how about those two marks red circled? I don't see them in googe map and why they are there with google images impoted by your mod? (2) For Yellowstone area, I agree that MSFS2024 may use some 3D mesh model, which may cover all the satellite images under it. (3) For San Jose, California area, the area in the screenshot is not covered by photogrammetry. So, why some low resolution image is displayed on top of google image???

  1. These are photogrammetry data image

  1. The red circle ones are the "patches" asobo made to avoid clouds or other bad satellite images. Please upgrade to latest version and you will see they have been removed: image
