Wow !

Nice video Rob, thank you.

That makes things a little clearer, should have used this as the trailer 🙂

Nice. Not the cotton ball clouds i have seen in the MSFS vids so far.

Looks very nice! Thanks, @Rob_Ainscough for the video. 

Finally the lighting and clouds look right. 🙂

Can't wait to see, what ActiveSky can make of this new weather system...

Here is an early Beta testing video ... many things have improved/fixed since I did this video:

If they'd use some of your footage for their own trailer, perhaps they'd have received a much better response.. Some really great sky scenes in there

Wonder what the draw distance is on those clouds. Still only like 150nm?

Most important thing to me would be a finally total overdone autogen loading mechanism. It is a pity to have autogen draw distance set to medium just to avoid loading in patches. But honestly, I guess this was not touched at all.

This will be one of the key criteria if I will buy it or not. It's been raised numerous times, including on their forums, and if they ignored it that would be really poor.

Kind regards, Michael

The Autogen popping / loading question has been asked numerous times in this thread

but nobody 'in the know' seems to be taking it on!

'Adjusted autogenerated building height'

This was the only reference I saw in relation to autogen.  Does that mean autogen scaling has now been fixed?  And what about the trees?

I've asked that also some MSFS supporter as you can clearly see also popping in MSFS2020 videos. Also non response 😉

Who knows? There are a lot of vague descriptions in the list - will have to wait and see I suppose.

Maybe it is something left over from the basic FSX code that both sims still use (P3Dv5 and MSFS)

that will never truly be fixed without a complete re-write?

Hi !

Somebody knows if the texture are compressed like the 4.5 or not like ASF2 ?

Cheers, Rob.

EDIT: this was done on my Dev PC not my NASA PC ... dev PC is 7900X at 4.5Ghz with older Titan X (pascal)

Spectacular lighting!

Any info about FPS? Better, the same with v4.5 ht2?
