A significant amount of RW work has been completed at KMSY, including the extension of Taxiway G, and the new connectors. The ribbon cutting for the new taxiways was held at the end of November 2023. More RW work is in the pipeline.
For now, for X-Plane, Taxiways G, G1, G2, G3, and G4, are being built/updated. This will allow it to be used with as many updates corresponding to RW construction as is practical. The X-Plane updates, and other items in need of attention will take at least a month or two. I have attached a progress screenshot of the new taxiways in X-Plane 12.

This update of KMSY to X-Plane 12 was done when the airport's new Terminal was under construction. I'm not a pilot so I don't really know if all construction is now completed. I can only go by what I see in Google Earth and X-Plane 12 default scenery. Looking at an aerial view, there is a big yellow X at G1, G2 & G4. I assumed the yellow X means not in service. X- Plane 12 default scenery of KMSY also does not show G1, G2 and G4 in service. This may not be the case anymore since the new KMSY Terminal is now completed. According to the Airport Diagram they are in service. I will make the corrections and issue an update to KMSY. Thank You for bringing this to my attention.

Taxiway G4 does not connect to G, G ends on the west side at G3, taxiways G1 and G2 do not exist.
