The world looks awful from high above

I got a lot of scenery addons like UT USA , FSGeneseis 38m Megascenery titles GE FE. And from lower altitudes in GA planes it looks great. But at higher altitudes in jet airliners it's terrible.One thing in particular stands out and that's water. I see the FE water textures only partly and beyond them at distinct borders the has a unnatural bright light blue color. At night the water seems far to bright especially these light blue textures. The coastlines seems blocky at places. Can this be resolved?

Hi there,it's a common problem because of the way FS draws the environment at greater distance from the user aircraft. No solution other than to tweak sight distance and clouds and/or stick to the default ground and water textures.See this thread for the technical explanation: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/show...=water+problemsCheers, Holger

Thanks Holger, your work and insights are much appreciated.Heres hoping the FSX team listens to these problems and makes some changes
