Turquoise Water ...

Flying around Hong Kong, I see vivid, turquoise water everywhere, and in film I've seen, that's not what it should look like! In other parts of the world, too, this glowing vivid, artigicial colour spoils otherwise wonderful scenery.

 

I have REX overdrive, but tweaking water textures there doesn't seem to have changed anything at all. Is there anything else I can do?

If you are running FSX in DX10 then you have to tick DX10 textures or something like that in REX. Screen shot would be good to see if it is the same problem I had.

Send me a PM with your email and I will send you corrected water class files for Hong Kong.  I fixed this problem myself.  

 

I am however trying to find a good Hong Kong scenery that will update the city, islands and surrounds.   FTX Global makes a dogs breakfast of HK and the default scenery doesnt do it justice.  I was just in HK a week ago, so i have recent pictures to work from.
