Just finished my first flight in, landing runway was 09 and i was approaching from the Atlantic so i had the chance for a good overfly of downtown/Miami Beach.  I really like the new buildings/photo real, makes for a great background for the approach.  Certainly happy with the update here!

I'm not convinced from this new version. PBR is nice, but I see a lot of flickering/jaggies at PBR buildings with my "3K" monitor and 4xSSAA (in P3D). I will probably need to force SGSS AA via NV inspector.

Compared to other Developers who also use 29Palms Configurators this one seems pretty useless - not much to choose or deactivate. Fine tuning visuals/performance is not possible.

I can only hope for some (free!) updates in near future.

Hi, we would like the feedback, and we wish to ask what would you like to select/unselect on the configurator?

I had similar issues, but turning Dynamic Reflections to low made it look better.  To be fair to LatinVFR they do recommend this setting in the manual.  I also haven't noticed any performance impact with this setting.

To be fair, Nemo has complained about other scenery as well. He has major issues with  imaginsim’s WSSS where I have zero issues.

i purchased v5 and like it generally. Not so sure about the aircraft textures but the rest is good imo.

Thank you, actually feedback on the aircraft textures has been similar, so we will take a look at that too.

What about pcaviator? I bought my version v4 there and i can't find a version v5/discounted update there yet. Will it be available there too?

That has nothing to with it. With WSSS I had CTDs here it is about AA issues.

Meanwhile I have a very clean system (Windows + P3D). After having installed some ORBX, FlyTampa and FlightBeam airports, KMIA is the first airport from another producer. I have not any issue, neither in performance nor in visuals, only KMIAv5 shows antialiasing issues (shimmering/flickering). I think it is PBR related and it maybe also related to my monitor display (3440x1440) which has less dpi as a true 4K display. With 8xSSAA (in P3D) the issue is still there but not so prominent. I will continue some testing and report back.

Report back: With NVI 4xSGSS being set in NVI, the AA issue is gone. If somebody wants to compare, go to gate J9 or J7 and look to the left side. The big "MIAMI" letters were flickering/shimmering wildly. I've also noticed this at other buildings (mainly between the floors of the building) and at some other objects. Now with 4xSGSS the issue is barely noticeable.

My feedback: I wish these sceneries were made in a way that doesn't force the activation of Dynamic Reflections, or have an extra set of textures for the ones not using this "feature".

I would like to see an option we’re I can turn off Dynamic Lights and just use FX lights at the airport. Many Devs give us this option to save on performance at night.

Hi, you can use it without Dynamic reflections, just that the default environment map will show.

Yes, we expect they do have it by this coming monday or Tuesday.

Actually you can turn off dynamic lights in the scenery display options. I am aware of giving other options. KMIA v4 gives those options.

Unfortunately at KMSY the appearance of those objects gets very ugly, like a molten metallic painting.

Yes, like I mentioned before, having this setting at "low' won't impact performance, and even at "medium" it shouldn't.

In my case it makes things worse, I run at 4k resolution and the video card won't handle it smoothly.
