August 29, 20196 yr Thanks Noooch! Amazing how Azure processes the satellite images. In the Arcachon image for instance you can still see the line where different satellite images meet, but it looks so much better in MSFS. Especially the shallow waters and the beaches look great. i9-11900K, RTX 4090, 32 GB ram, Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo, TCA Airbus sidestick and quadrant, Reverb G2

I think they used different imagery on the bottom half part of the screenshot. On the in-sim shot we can see there's a cloud on the imagery, but on the bing one there's no cloud. 9800X3D@H150i // Msi RTX 5090 Trio OC // 64GB DDR5 6000mhz CL30 // 2TB + 1TB Nvme Dell 27" 2127DGF - 1440p - Gsync - 165hz Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus // TCA Quadrant Airbus // TFRP T.Flight Rudder Pedals // Logitech Flight Multi Panel
August 29, 20196 yr Great post! Stunning comparison. Now I really begin to feel all other sims and scenery addons are in serious trouble. Edited August 29, 20196 yr by dongdongliushui
August 29, 20196 yr The new sim really looks even more incredible when you compare it like that, knowing it is using said Bing Map data to generate it's own scenery. The tech in MFS really does seem impressive and revolutionary for the flight sim genre.

Mind you it's quite a coincidence that the line separeting the two sat images is at the exact same spot. I don't know. But if they used different imagery that would be great news as Bing images aren't the best in some places. i9-11900K, RTX 4090, 32 GB ram, Honeycomb Alpha and Bravo, TCA Airbus sidestick and quadrant, Reverb G2

It is a good indicator that places that don't have as much satellite data will still be represented nicely in the sim. 5 hours ago, Shack95 said: Thanks Noooch!

August 29, 20196 yr That Tanzania picture has to be 100% land class doesn't it? It looks nothing like the satellite photo. Edited August 29, 20196 yr by bonchie
