January 23, 20206 yr Whatever city is in the first picture, I think that's an offline mode screenshot, completely Autogen. Might be Tokyo based on the file name. 11 minutes ago, SterlingCrimson92 said: Skint's first picture of the skyline... which city is that? Same question for LookedUnicorn95's picture! Both look great! San Francisco for Skint's city, you can see the Transamerica Pyramid in the centre of the screen, Golden Gate Bridge in the far right background. It also says Port of San Francisco on the big building on the water front 😜 Edited January 23, 20206 yr by Tuskin38

Yes lots to do, remember its only Alpha build, you can make out the buildings on the left of St Barts but they are swamped by trees. They will clear this up.

January 23, 20206 yr Even in the testers screenshots, the procedural world of MSFS is very impressive. Photogrammetry or not, online or offline, I love what I see in terms of procedural urban scape... So I still think flying in Offline mode in MSFS will be better than any global scenery addon we can have for the actually available simulators...

I mean, I have X-Plane with ortho coverage in my area and it's really great to fly. But the autogen... oh boy. Or the roads with their ridicuous contrast... VFR will be a joy with MSFS2020.

The Assets used to represent the footprint based procedural world are even much better in terms of details.

January 23, 20206 yr I think the first screenshot shows a pretty convincing representation of a city based purely on autogen. Sure, you would notice the differences to the real world If you are familar with the place, but considering that this is the default level of quality across the whole world, only generated by AI, is simply amazing. Even the variety in autogen buildings is quite cool.
January 23, 20206 yr Regarding the St. Barths shot, I assume this is taken in offline mode. Most of all the roads on the hill on the far side of the bay look like vector / landclass technology not orthoimagery. So I hope it looks much more accurate in online mode, in particular what in the foreground looks like a dirt cartway now will be a paved road with a roundabout.

The same they do with runways might be done with roads, because when the image source is poor, the roads are to... Edited January 23, 20206 yr by aleex
January 23, 20206 yr Yeah, I was curious how cliff faces, or rock formations would look. Now I know, and So much better than any vertical surface Ive seen previously. Now I want to go check this out.
