April 13, 20206 yr Moderator Did anyone notice the bare areas of the grass just over the rear of the DA42? It looks like they hadn't finished putting sod down yet: Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
April 13, 20206 yr That's how it'll look in most games where the ambient occlusion is applied to vegetation, like grass.

April 13, 20206 yr It looks like the blurry base satellite image to me in that ground patch, same as other flight sims. There is no texture to it, or detail, maybe a bump map would help. My brother has Coronavirus, confirmed by testing. On 3/26 he almost didn't survive the night. He had extreme trouble breathing and was given a steroid inhaler. He was very weak, had nausea, and other issues that aren't pleasant. As of this update he is feeling much better, and seems he will be fine. Stay safe out there. (Updated 4/6)
April 14, 20206 yr I hope there *are* random bare spots, where climatically or seasonally appropriate. That will allow even more variation in airport tarmacs. Another thing I hope they do, is have a higher resolution base image around airports, or, short of that, have a bump map of some sort as @GlideBy mentions.

April 14, 20206 yr If they use the concept of "forest" poly/area like in the other simulator, then the density/coverage values will create either empty spots or a compact vegetation.
