This is V4.4 april preset.

I'm going to to have to grab that one. Your latest one for May has way too much blue in it. For June, can you consider reducing the blue tint when lloking out on the horizon and adding in some brown? Would seem more summer like.

The difference between may 2019 and april 2018 is only terrain, cloud and objects Lighting .

Nothing has changed regarding color....

But it depends on what sky set you are using. Some are very blue and then the Environment will look blue too.

Well thank goodness we fixed this and have given control for it in our latest beta update. 😉

This is not related to EF, rather the weather engine in use. 

Actually, this is not a fault of EF, it's how the sim renders cirrus in its default state. We will look at giving more control over this.

To be fair, if you're not sure, then why blame EF for that? 

See what @Rasterfahnder stated above. If that doesn't work, no worries, we have a more solid solution for our HDR in the next beta build working well.

Sounds like you all are getting this fine tuned pretty well. Once these beta builds are ready for RTM, think it will b be time to give it a go. I truly want a set it to auto mode and forget it product that shows what you would see with live weather data injection.

Well said.

Let me ask this then. I have Sky Force, is it useless now ? Ive been using Active Sky as the weather engine with Sky Force. I also have Texture Direct. Im somewhat confused, are these products now useless ? How should I use Environment Force ? I have lots of  REX stuff, it all looks so cool but Im often confused on how these products interact with each other or if some of them overlap ?

It's easy and the infos are everywhere on the REX website and forum.

SF is useless now ... when you don't want to have the sky textures!
EF is using SF for textures and cloud models, so SF is far from useless.

And without SF you can't have the new "Weather force" weather engine as it is an free upgrade to SF.

I lock FPS at 26 and they never go below that anywhere.

What Setting Michael? P3D or SF or EF or everything? or with or without tweaks?

P3D i guess as a starter  . I really is struggling with this one in 4.5 . About 30% worse than PMDG birds.

I also find VSYNC off and 59HZ to be more smooth (less stutter) when my FPS dips below 23 fps which is rather new to me. Always used VSYNC/25HZ/unlimited

Locked 26FPS ? is this in P3D or outside ?

Thanks

David

i use 512 EF cloud textures and ASP4 at 90/140 cloud distance btw

Am in bed now on my iPad but will get back to you.

ASP4 I run 5 cloud layers, clouds min 150, max 150, SF/EF all HDR options now on all textures set to DTX5 512.

I will get back to you on the rest

June coming within a couple of days and can be used with EF too :

This is the same day ( 21 june ) with the same sky/clouds.

Above the clouds ( the higher you fly, the more blue the sky is )
