Hi.

All good here with the PTA v2.04beta!.

Yuri, please remember to change the scale used on the "images" section of this tweak (is still the previous one used by v2.0-2.3).

Cheers, Ed

Sorry, I meant ...previous one used by v2.00-2.03!.

Weird...I use this preset and it looks great. No glareshield shimmering issues at all.

 

Yuri, problem solved. I mipmapped the textures and the shimmering went away.

Sorry for the stupid question, but to upgrade to 2.04, do I just replace the exe file and open up the same preset I was using?

Yes, replace exe, open your preset in PTA 2.04, re-setting the parameter of "Clouds shadows depth" tweak (if you used it) and apply preset.

 

 

Thanks again, Yuri, excellent work!.

Thanks Ed!

Announcement - new preset: adam_20-09

 

This is a quick update to 20_08 that fixes the night lighting for the PMDG B737 and iFly B747 - see: http://www.avsim.com/topic/490178-prepar3d-tweak-assistant-pta-screenshots-presets/page-11#entry3551851.

Many thanks, Yuri!

[Adamski_NZ 952]

Just to clear up some confusion (!) - I appear to have tweaked the recommended HDR settings in 20_09. The correct settings are:

P3D HDR settings: Brightness: 0.65 | Bloom: 0.20 | Saturation: 0.85

 

Thanks for spotting that one, Brian!

Phew - that's a relief! I only have the 777 in FSX, so couldn't test it.

SKY TEXTURES by Mamedov Gennadiy

 

 

“If you are using Active Sky 2016+ASCA, download archive "FOR_ASCA.zip", unzip and put the folder with the desired set into following directory”

 

I have downloaded and unzipped the FOR_ASAC zip, in the desired directory, but I’m unsure as what to do with the individual sets when they are in there?

Do I place them within an existing folder and overwrite what is in there?

If I wanted to use, say “CRIMSON”, where do I place it after I have put inside the skycolor folder?

Can anyone help please?

 

Sorry they say the only dumb question is the one you don’t ask.
