When flying low and slow VFR, the scenery in this sim is in most areas way too bright green, it makes anywhere in world that has vegetation appear like  a cartoon version of someones idea of what they think  Ireland must look  like in mid-summer.

Anyone know a way to tone this down to more realistic levels?

There are some vegetation packs avaialble.

Are you running with bloom enabled? That often makes the output over-contrasty and over-saturated. I hate bloom with a vengeance. I want to see what the nekkid eye sees, not some fancy, artificial photographic effect 😉

In the UserCfg.opt file there is a setting:

ColorGrading = 1

When set to 0 they say the colors are a little less saturated.

The file can be found in:

AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache

+1 on turning off color grading for a more natural look. Though it is either on or off no half way settings.  I leave it on for videos though because people seem to like oversaturated screen shots and videos.

Note that changing graphics settings in game will reset it to tuned on the next time you fly.

Most are payware.

 

There is the seasons mod - I do not have it but a lot of people like it:

 

There is also the NZscenery addon for New Zealand which has a vegetation component and water masks, though the water part is badly broken at present and kills the game,  the vegetation looks great.  It does have an FPS hit even with the water disabled but is manageable.

Circuit at Murchison with the NZscenery vegetation and orbx mesh enabled, in the rain with a 10 knot crosswind.  The Orbx mesh adds a hump at the threshold that makes landings tricky - "almost" but not quite landed on the runway.
