Yep, it's trivial.

But keep in mind this grass will only be rendered at very low altitudes, so the photoscenery textures will still need to be colored themselves if we want to have seasons.

Oh, fair enough. Now I´m even more excited xD

I think this picture was not supposed to be released today. The other one with the green grass is missing in the insider collection.

Yeah sadly that picture looks more like an experiment, I'm not sure those cloud formations are even possible. But the technology is very exciting and it's clearly WIP.

Maybe there will be an insider news later? Or maybe not.

It’s strange that no word on the insider section are made.

The ground rendering from this high up is absolutely esquisite! You can see they have rendered a bridge which fits in perfectly with the details shown in the rest of the terrain. Stunning.

If I'm not mistaken, that looks very much like Normandy, France. You can see the Mont Saint Michel in the background!

I think you are correct, on a side note if anyone has the chance to go to Mont Saint Michel, go it's like going back to medieval France, a wonderful day out,

Water clipping through house!

This simulator is obviously going to be a disaster!  😅

The key will be how well localization works, all over the world. No surprise that this spectacular test image is the Normandy coast, with the developer ASOBO located in France. And we've seen Africa savanna grass. Now what about the ground-level view everywhere else in the world? 

Not trying to be negative here, just wondering how they'll pull that off. Or if we will only get this level of detail in a few areas.

Nice catch lol

The water isn't actually clipping through, they made the underside texture of roofs invisible so it saves on rendering. Since it's a flightsim they probably assumed a roof would be seen from the top most of the time... they clearly forgot about the picture detectives among us 😀

Man oh man..

Some people around here literally can't help but be negative about seemingly every single piece of news.

 

Smile guys - Life is too short...
