May 17, 201610 yr bonchie - Why is the plane lit up like it's daytime in those night shots? I think that was from the older alpha build. Night time stills from the beta are much darker. Unfortunately, there's still only one video on youtube of the beta and no footage at night. Jordan King has some beta video but his Facebook account and twitch stream seem to be top secret.

From what I have seen, the light effects are a little exaggerated at night....the aircraft has a lovely shine to moonlight and other light sources but can be a bit too accentuated. I believe this has been raised with the DTG team as well so it is not worth stopping there until we see what they do about it at release time. It does feel like this is a practice run for their major Simulator to come at the end of the year so maybe once a few features are in place they may call development complete, who knows. The light effects external and internal are obviously more complex than what was offered in FSX or FSXSE....the transition to Dusk was quite nice, it doesn't quite show in the screenshot I took of the Preview article on the front page but it was nice. As an entry point to new simmers, this should be quite a good product. Will Reynolds Flight Sim Addict

May 17, 201610 yr Not a simulator by any standard. I dont see this as any real alternative to P3D/FSX/DTG/X-Plane/ etc... Agree with you there. It was more the quality of the visuals that blew me away. I seemed almost real. I didn't pay much attention to the technical details in this case.

May 17, 201610 yr I certainly hope it's the Alpha version. The texture "bleed through" problems on take off need to be addressed, and that linear "haze line" is very ugly. Considerably better blending is required there.

May 17, 201610 yr Christopher Low - I certainly hope it's the Alpha version. The texture "bleed through" problems on take off need to be addressed, and that linear "haze line" is very ugly. Considerably better blending is required there. It is the alpha, although it was posted a day after the beta was released. You can tell by the numbers in the bottom right side of the screen at the very start of the video. Here's the beta in the only publicly available video. Alas, the haze effect is still weird, the clouds don't fade into the distance (as they would with haze) and the sky colour is completely unaffected by it. No blending visible as far as I can make out.
May 17, 201610 yr Why the heck are they still previewing Alpha version? Lets move on to Beta. Its couple weeks away from release. And why is there still no rain effects on windshield in a revamped sim . This should be fundamental now. DTG has it in their train sim and truck sims. Oh theres the beta build finally.
