Envshade 1.1.6.3 released

Not that I have ever noticed one with past versions, but is there a FPS hit?

Not really, must have addon if you ask me.

Did anyone try restarting the sim, with cleared shaders, and see plane shining bright again in the night sky? With EA on of course. Turning EA off an on fixes it.

One more tip: If you use the default envshade settings (=1.0), you will notice that while the aircraft- and cockpit shadows are eliminated when the weather is foggy, the shadows are still slightly visible under overcast cloud conditions when the visibility is high. To get rid of the shadows in that case, you need to increase the slider "Cloud shadows". A value of 1.3 is the lowest value, at which shadows are no longer visible. Here is another gif that shows the cloud shadows under overcast skies at different values (I used 30mi visibility):

That is really great update!

What about the silver PBR textures (PMDG NGXu leading edge flaps as an example) becoming black at dusk? Not sure I understood if that is fixed?

Using v5.1

I’m waiting to hear some more feedback. So far it sounds promising.

I don't think that's something Envshade can fix.

Does this happen with dynamic reflections on or off?

So I take it everyone is happy with the update? I may need to turn mine back on.

Does the cockpit shadow setting work for you guys? 
 

I find cockpits in P5D way too dark but I don’t see much of a difference with Envshade. And the way the setting is worded I’m not even sure if you need to move the slider to the left or to the right to have a brighter cockpit.

Reflections are on, didn’t try with it off though.

Last time I used Envshade, Envtex, it killed my Orbx night lighting, turned all major highways into flowing lava and missing suburban lights, it all came back after disabiling Envshade, does anyone know if this has been remedied?

Don’t think so.  I’m seeing the same thing.
