base LC/PR textures

[kevinfirth 1,392]

from FSDT: "One of the main difference in the V5 graphic engine, is that now almost everything is PBR, including the base Terrain/Landclass" 

How will this affect PR? will it require a complete rework of any photoreal products to take advantage of this?

IMO, it shouldn't. PBR was available in 4.5 and MSE PR worked fine. I just sent them an email asking. Will post back when I get a response.

ground textures weren't PBR in 4.5 to the best of my recollection...

Wouldn't any texture replacement product, e.g. Orbx Global, need to be reworked with PBR? Unless V5 adds it automatically? Seems like quite a lot of work.

What's good to see in this regard is that Orbx have been a solid part of the v5 beta team, so things are likely in the works already and may have been for quite some time.

What I want to know is how or scenery looks like .

When V4.2 came out almost all or scenery suddenly was overexposed.

Also with V4.4 and V4.5 the sharpness in the distance has always been less compared to LC based textures .

With PTA/TS I was able to have a good ground scenery with both LC based textures and pr tiles.
