VFR UK and Distance

Featured Replies

Hi All.I'm posting this quierie again as I dont want it to drop down the list.I wonder if anybody else out there using Just Flight's VFR Photgraphic Scenery has this problem.To get the best out of VFR realistically you should fly at about 2500ft in a Cessna (slowish plane) with visibility set to about 5 or 10 miles.It doesn't really matter what kind of weather you have set as long as you follow the basic rules above. In FS2002 these settings worked perfectly and you could have an extremely realistic flight and even check out your own street.I have found in FS2004 that when you set the weather distance in customised weather setting to about 10 miles, rather than the distance view being shortened you get a mist effect which cuts down visibility radically, this effect is not in the distance but all over even when you look stright down.All colour gets washed out and can look rather greyish. If one goes back to the normal weather set say for a fair weather day, the distance automatically goes back to 60 miles and you cant reduce that at all. I hope thats clear, (no pun intended)I remember a tip/tweak somewhere on the fs2002 forum that suggested that you could alter the weather visibility file from 60 miiles down, does anyone know of this tip/tweak for FS9."some say that time is the fire in which we burn" Dr Tolian Soron - 24th century philosopher
