FSX MSE2 Utah with cloud shadows

Recommended Posts

MSE2 Utah with FSX DX10 Fixer clouds.  Click on each one to reveal its full glory (though its 2k master tops this):

Seeing those shadows drift along adds much to the flying experience, which is something that a screen shot can't show.

Thanks for viewing! :smile:

Michael, the clouds shadows are a relatively recent thing thanks to the add-on for Steve's DX10 fixer, but they certainly help FSX along!

Thanks for all your kind feedback!

IMO the DX10 Fixer cloud shadows add-on is the 10th anniversary royal diamond of the FSX crown.  I was so ready to move on, but not now.

And BTW, Utah is the only MSE2 area I own, though several years ago I bought MSE Grand Canyon whose quality I've since found to be unparalleled, such that MSE2 Utah was initially somewhat of a let down.

I have not purchased any photoscenery since I bought Sim Savvy's whole US on an external drive.  Have been trying to decide which photoscenery for the western US that offers the best quality and features such as autogen, night lighting, and water masking.  Looks like my options are Ultimate VFR and MSE3 which does not have autogen or night lighting.
