Fall Season, no tree color change?

Featured Replies

I must be daft or FSX is broken. Here in WI it is very pretty in fall with the tree color change.Does FSX only have green trees? Tried several fall dates, its either beige ground or white snow, no fall orange tree colors.What am I doing wrong?Edit: Also do lakes ever freeze in FSX with season change?

With REX and Active sky you can setup colors for water etc in different weather as themes. So you could make an icy looking inland water texture in REX with the sliders. As for trees though I don't know, I didn't look because gum trees aren't deciduous we don't have much colour change in Australia. Have you got rise of flight? That has a great fall landscape with colored trees depending when the mission is set.

Aside from the programs mentioned UTX has the ability to swap the water texture with ice manually in the config program.scott s..

Depends on the region where you are flying, and some 3PD scenery have their own seasonal dates coded into them.

Fall in FSX is a mess. Usually starts in September, 3rd week and ends on October 31st.Do not go by the season settings. Fall in the season settings is November which is not Fall in FSX, its WinterBest bet to see fall is set to October 1stWinter in FSX runs from November 1st to March 20th

Well I was testing Autumn at KOSH, Oshkosh WI. Lat/Long: 43-59-04.1681N / 088-33-24.9655W 43-59.069468N / 088-33.416092W 43.9844911 / -88.5569349 (estimated) Elevation: 808 ft. / 246.3 m (surveyed) Variation: 01E (1975) From city: 2 miles S of OSHKOSH, WI Time zone: UTC -6 (UTC -5 during Daylight Saving Time) Zip code: 54902 Guess UTX does have it, will check it out tonight. "In the UTX Setup Tool. Select the Ultimate Terrain->Change Assigned Water Textures menu option and then press the Hard Winter (Ice) button. Jeff"This is what I assume I should see in autumn/fall (pic). Where most of the trees are orange/brown/yellow.Neumuenster-Airport-Fix-Scenery-fsx1.jpg
