Kurz nach dem Release von FSimStudios Vancouver Umsetzung, mussten diese sich etwas Kritik gefallen lassen. Einige Aspekte der Szenerie stimmten nicht, die Performance war zu schlecht und die VRAM Auslastung zu hoch. Heute nun ist es soweit, Vancouver ist in der Version 1.1 veröffentlicht worden. Orbx Kunden können das Update via Orbx Central beziehen, FSimStudios Direktkäufer bekommen eine E-Mail mit dem Link zum Update. Allerdings ist noch etwas Geduld gefragt, das Update geht erst in den nächsten Stunden online.
