National Parks

Well, my main problem with WU22 is that they ruined the forests in the Cascades and the Olympics. The photogrammetry thinks it's Bryce Canyon or the Petrified Forest. Many of the trees have been turned into rock pillars. :mad:

Yikes.

The PNW is one of my favorite places to fly, so even though the mountains look great, the stone forests are killing it for me. I may uninstall the update until it gets fixed (if it gets fixed). It's too bad, because so much of this update is absolutely fantastic.
Killbilly, I have found this to be one of the best additions to MSFS 2024. SimMarket updates the Bijan Seasons often, so should you or anyone else purchase it, check back with SimMarket monthly for updates to match the seasons.

I don't think so (unless it's one I'm unaware of). It shows up as a marked POI for me. Now that I think about it, it could be from one of the World Updates for the US. I just assumed it was from the National Park update. I'll have to investigate when I'm home from work.
 
Thanks, Killbilly, for uncovering a big mystery. Some time ago I must have had the World Update 2. Then I was using it to see the Mackinac bridge. Later the bridge stopped appearing. Also when World update 22 was issued, I saw that Mount Rushmore Presidents were gone. What is really a problem is that when I go to the Market Place/World/World Update the only World updates that appear are 20, 21,19 and 22. World Update 2 is missing thus I don't see the Cliffs Palace, the Mack Bridge or the Rushmore presidents. The question remains why does WU Update 2 not show and are there others not showing?

Is FS2024 somehow denying me access to WU 2 for some unknown reason? Any ideas?

Look in "My Library" instead of the MP. Do a search for "World Update." If you had it in MSFS2020, or previously in 24, it should show up there and be available for you to enable.
 
I had checked Mylibrary and thru stupidity or my blind spots in my one good eye missed seeing the WU II.

WU II is in Mylibrary and shows 6 items that should be enabled and is not allowed to be deleted. None of the WU II POIs I checked appear in the sim.

This rates high on my list of things that does not work in FS2024 for me. Not worth the time and frustration to try to fix.

Thanks again Killbilly for your help.
