Is this what next?

Recommended Posts

without intention to herald nothing and just poking the CFG simulator I've accomplished what I see in the video that I put below.

I hope this does not have any ad fustrado future of the company.

Nice video. Looks very smooth. I'm finding performance much better than a tweaked fsx.

So P3D has cloud shadows as well? Didn't realise that, though I find the edges not diffuse enough...

Not officially. They can be enabled by editing the config but they aren't officially in the game for a reason… As can be seen in de video. The shapes are odd and the shadows are too dark and 'hard'. Good to know they are working on it, though!

look at the last line of the image, you have to pass in 0 to 1 and then also add the following line
TERRAIN_SHADOWS_RECEIVE = 1

Personally I found the shadows to be very distracting. They didn't look at all realistic in either shape or transparency.  I understand that this is not what it will become, but I couldn't enjoy flying with those .  It will be interesting to see where this goes.


Thank you.

Rick
