Can you make a comparison screenshot : default vs Envshade ? As V5 looks already better it is not clear what Envshade adds extra..

Thanks.

I'll try but I'm not sure when I'll be able to get to it.  For me, Envtex/shade adds sharper cloud textures, different water/wave options, and some subtle changes in haze/atmospherics even without P3Dv5's enhanced beta.  I totally agree - the new P3Dv5 environment is great and envtex/shade is completely optional!

One issue I ran into was the "disable and restore" option in ENVDIR only reverted the ENVTEX settings and not the ENVSHADE effects. I had to manually get it back to the default shaders which was a bit irritating.

I upped the HDR brightness on the V35 shot a bit per ENVSHADE recommended settings, so the shots are a bit more comparable. The Duke shot is with the exact same scenario and settings. The thing I like most about having ENVSHADE is it gets rid of the fluctuating brightness when you look up/down with the default HDR settings of P3D. I was really impressed with the shaders of v5 out of the box but I think I'll be sticking with ENVSHADE for now.
