Stunningly realistic sunset in FSX

Featured Replies

Once again, just like my previous uploads, the only thing I've edited in is the lens flare.

 

These are my own custom-made sky textures that I am constantly tweaking around to achieve the most realistic colours and gradients. I also use Mogwaisoft Shade for customised lighting (shadow/light/fog) colours.

Super realistic indeed. Would be nice to see them without the edited lens flare.

You cheated.  You used a camera.  Kidding.  Stunning.

Those sunsets sure do look great.  I wish we could get them that way within the sim.

Can you tell us WHERE the screen was taken ?

If you play with lens flare effect in FSX, you can actually achieve something not so far from that.

Problem is... what works for sunrise / sunset usually doesn't works well for midday, and vice-versa...
