MSFS Map Enhancement

## MSFS Map Enhancement: Changes from 10.2.4 to 10.4.1 ### Ground textures and terrain detail - **MSFS 2024:** Added ground texture resolution options: default **256×256**, HD **512×512**, and Ultra HD **1024×1024**. You can switch during flight. HD and Ultra HD require MSFS Pro, and changes apply to newly loaded textures. - **MSFS 2020:** Added **512×512 HD ground textures** without changing terrain LOD. You can switch during flight. This feature requires MSFS Pro, and changes take effect as terrain materials are regenerated. - Improved high-resolution imagery fallback to reduce missing tiles and black patches. - Fixed ground texture switching after reconnecting to MSFS 2024. - Ground Detail Adjustment now takes effect only after entering a flight, preventing high settings from slowing mission loading. The original detail level is restored after leaving a flight. - Improved SimConnect reconnection and the reliability of day/night and terrain LOD updates. ### Maps and diagnostics - Added an option to turn off the fallback map. When disabled, missing primary-map tiles remain visible instead of being filled by another source. - Map checks now use an appropriate test location and respect each source’s maximum zoom level, reducing false failures. - Added an option to disable automatic checks for custom maps while keeping the manual test available. Hybrid maps skip image checks, and the fallback map is checked separately. - Improved startup check failure messages and added the option to continue the current startup when a check fails. - Network Diagnostics now shows a summary, request success rates, loading times, and suggested next steps. Copied reports include technical details and the full diagnostic log. - Added progress feedback while switching maps or changing the fallback-map setting, without unnecessary flickering or layout movement. - Improved map fallback behavior and added warning textures when map sources or Pro map access are unavailable. - Replaced the non-working China HD 2023 map source and fixed OpenStreetMap loading in the main view and Hybrid Map Editor. ### Licensing and Pro features - The trial offers for Building Enhancement, Realistic Night Lighting, and Ground Detail Adjustment have ended. These features now require a valid Pro license. - Previously enabled Pro features are switched off when access is unavailable. You can still disable features and remove installed packages without Pro. - Map Enhancement must be stopped before activating or removing Pro. Feature availability refreshes after a license change. - Added a license warning for an enabled Pro fallback map when no valid Pro license is available. - Fixed device ID and license details sometimes appearing blank. The License page now refreshes on entry and offers a retry when loading fails. - Improved messages for expired, disabled, and unverifiable licenses. ### Night lighting, cache, and startup - Reduced CPU usage when Realistic Night Lighting loads for the first time and fixed a night-lighting package issue that could cause simulator crashes. - Reduced service startup time when the night-lighting cache contains many files. Restarting the map service now reuses the running image server. - Improved MSFS 2024 rolling cache cleanup and allowed night-lighting packages to be installed or removed before a rolling cache has been created. - Improved recovery from disk cache corruption and handling of low disk space. Fixed cases where failed cache cleanup was reported as successful. - Improved service startup and shutdown when the hosts file is read-only or in use. - Fixed Windows Start on boot settings and an issue where MSFS 2024 could start in 2020 mode at Windows startup. - Fixed manually selected Community folders being overwritten by automatic migration. - Improved the flight simulator launch button. ### Updates and other improvements - Upgrading across multiple versions now displays all included release notes, separating the latest changes from earlier ones. - Fixed an application-wide blank screen that could occur when a new version was detected. The update page also remains usable when release notes are missing. - Improved interrupted update downloads and GitHub rate-limit messages, preventing incomplete installers from being presented as ready to install. - Replaced the building region package deletion prompt with an in-app confirmation dialog.
