July 22, 20169 yr Hey guys I have purchased as16 and loving it Just a question I have max surface visibility at 15m And max upper at 63 Vol fog on Are those settings realistic? And find it a little hazier than. Expected is realistic? If i increase its fine but I'de rather have a. Realistic settings as I do mostly fly IFR Cheers Mike
July 22, 20169 yr These are ok for summer hot months. Once things get a bit cooler, you'd need to increase your settings to meet more realistic settings 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.
July 22, 20169 yr Hi Mike I just left mine at the defaults, which is 75 for surface and 100 for upper I think. But AS16 automatically reduces it if actual visibility is less than that so you don't need to increase or decrease it yourself. Cheers Stu Stuart Furley

July 22, 20169 yr Max Upper 120 Max Cloud Distance 130 Why 130? P3D natural limit for cloud draw distance is 110 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.
July 22, 20169 yr A setting of 130 sometimes helped with the hard edge fog and haze in P3D with ASN. That's been fixed in AS16, so 110 or whatever you prefer is fine. Higher than 150 and your performance will suffer.
July 22, 20169 yr Use PTA if you want to eliminate hard edges and add some haze layer. 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.

July 23, 20169 yr Author Thanks for all your input guys. Much appreciated Going to stick with default I guess. And I am indeed using pta which is amazing Cheers Mike
July 23, 20169 yr Don't need PTA to remove hard edges or add haze in the new version AS16. Again, depends on your upper vis. limits. If it's above 110 you'd still need PTA. Specifically during sunset and sunrise. If your upper vis limit is 65, then you're ok maybe with edges on a horizon, however with such limits you most likely will never see a beautiful volumetric fog in the mountains 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.
