July 27, 201115 yr I think the fan page is official :)http://www.flightsim...dpost&p=2423971 The image clearly has been cropped - see black triangle in the top left corner. The bottom of the image has equally clearly been photoshopped to add the caption and also to add a tint to black. Gerry Howard
July 29, 201115 yr Commercial Member Even that last "magic screenie" didn't look that good.LOL - why do you think they called it a "MAGIC screenie"? Best regards,Robin.
July 29, 201115 yr Fact is, absence of cloud shadows would - for me, at least - detract immensely. We are far enough ahead in graphics tech. Cloud shadows should be there. H e l p k e e p A V S I M f l y i n g
July 29, 201115 yr Didn't real environment xtreme (REX) guys had a plan of cloud shadows few times ago? I can remember they had a shot of those shadows but never heard anything again... does someone remember? EDIT: found! Kind regards, Erich.
August 9, 201115 yr The image clearly has been cropped - see black triangle in the top left corner. The bottom of the image has equally clearly been photoshopped to add the caption and also to add a tint to black. Yes on further observation the top left hand hand corner shows cropping, but I can't see any other.Would a Facebook 'fan' really manipulate a publicly available screenshot that much to use as his pages profile pic?

August 10, 201115 yr Fact is, absence of cloud shadows would - for me, at least - detract immensely. We are far enough ahead in graphics tech. Cloud shadows should be there. I agree, I may be wildly optimistic about Flight, but I got beautiful cloud shadows in Wings of Prey... more than a year ago. It's not a technology block anymore, I hope they don't decide against them for this release!
August 10, 201115 yr Considering the latest update of X-Plane has cloud shadows on the ground and aircraft implemented, I believe it's safe to assume Flight will incorporate them as well... Right?

August 11, 201115 yr Not including cloud shadows (or VC rain for that matter) would be folly in a 2011/12 title. It would be like leaving out water reflections in a ship simulator.
August 17, 201115 yr REX was trying to get cloud shadows to work but for now has placed it in a "to do" pile.http://realenvironmentxtreme.com/forum/index.php?topic=15409.0
