FG 2020.3.8, osm2city worldbuild, terrasync and terramaster

Hello pilots and developers,

having read a lot in the osm2city worldbuild thread and after download and installation of FG 2020.3.8 I am a bit confused about the role of terrasync and terramaster.

My example: Sweden, Kristianstad airport ESMK and Kristianstad town nearby in the North:

Terramaster download to terrasync folder: plain scenery without osm2city buildings.
Terrasync download and scenery reload: great city scenery with plenty of buildings in Kristianstad.

I compared to the osm2city scenery of Sweden which was made available by saul (see viewtopic.php?f=5&t=34582 ) set as custom scenery above terrasync, there are detailed roads and some further details in addition to the osm2city scenery which was downloaded via terrasync.

I understand that terrasync downloads the osm2city worldbuild data with FG 2020.3.8 in addition to the standard scenery, is that correct?
What can I do to teach Terramaster that I am using FG 2020.3.8 and it should download the same whole lot that is downloadable via terrasync?

I did a terrasync download for my home region in Germany (EDEN), as well, nothing changed to standard scenery. Does that mean, there is no new osm2city scenery there, yet?

To distinguish my handling issue from the main osm2city world build thread viewtopic.php?f=5&t=35581 I started this support query hoping for help to understand the issue and adapt my FG accordingly.

Thanks in advance and my regards,
Oswald

As far as I know, TerraMaster was not updated to include this feature yet: if you want to use OSM2City, you need to use built-in TerraSync, or wait until TerraMaster adds this.

As yet I understood that Terramaster uses the same file source like Terrasync ... ?
