Suggestion for for a SEASONAL depiction in XP....

Featured Replies

I have pretty much covered all my area interests of flight with Ortho4XP at z17/19-4

In the pursuit of that, I noticed time and time again, that the servers had uploaded different time-of-season tiles...where you could be flying along over Spring, Summer, and Fall.  I have not seen Winter ever.  But stating that...I have a suggestion for those invested in Ortho4XP.  As you fly around, viewing tiles along your flight path...have pen and paper ready....as you fly, if you see a season that you lean toward...just make note of any of the airports, for instance, where it was obvious that Fall was in effect with the color of forestry showing the leaves turning...etc...and then, simply, if you want to fly today (over Ortho4XP tiles) in let's say the Fall...just start your flight at the airport that is surrounded by an Ortho4XP tile taken in the Fall months.  Same for Spring or Summer.  That does work to set up the flight month 'mood' you are looking for. Being that probably one or two tiles surrounding that airport will have also been taken in that particular month...you can have Spring, Summer, Fall, anytime you want, despite X Plane not supporting that feature, product wide....  This is what I do...and truly, it gets the 'seasonal mood' taken care of, for now.

A suggestion...

Or you could simply wait until you are in the mood for some summer flying and then fire up X-Plane and fly pretty much anywhere using the default scenery! 😂

Cheers, Jan

XEnviro?

Or just sit out global warming a little more, no seasons needed anymore soon!

Its major disadvantage is that you'll need to reload the scenery after the initial loading in order to see the texture changes.

I use snow textures for seasonal snow. If enabled I disable Ortho4XP because it does make no sense then.

Hello,

I use four seasons and for the ortho4xp the winterizer.

This works for me and they works together.

The thing about global warming that bothers me is this current advocacy group thinks they invented it.

Don´t want to go political here - but if that is the only thing that bothers you about global warning you must not have any children or grandchildren...

I'm not a disbeliever - just pointing out that this is not a first by any means. 

Global warning does not exist. People are getting rich off the Global Warming scare. And if all the ice does melt, I know how to swim.

Here we go.
