FTX Global too Green?

Featured Replies

Hi all-

 

Installed FTX Global last night followed by the patch. Is this scenery too green, or is it my imagination? I did a short flight from SFO to LAX this morning and the Bay Area is way too green and as I approach the LA basin, the San Bernadino mountains are too green as well.

 

As a stand alone product FTX is very well done. As far as representing the terrain where I live, that's another matter. This is why I'm partial to photoscenery. Not so good below 2500', but otherwise, looks like home.

Unfortunately FSX uses same textures in areas that in real life have very different look, thus any simple texture replacement product is going to give you bad effects in some area. In default FTX & GEX many green areas of the world look too dry, with FTX Global some dry areas look too green.

 

If you have some custom landclass installed try uninstall it, that too seemed to cause too much green appearing in some areas where it wouldn't otherwise. 

 

I believe OpenLC packs which ORBX is currently working on should get rid of this issue completely as they will finally apply custom textures to different areas.
