Looking closer on my setup as well as the screenshots above mountains are indeed more rounded than SU4 no matter what you do with the settings.

Not really if you compare them to my screenshots on page 2 they're still pretty sharp.

Holger is probably suffering the 'settings not sticking' issue. So it's not actually showing at full quality.

I have been lucky too as I have had no CTD with SU5. I think the sceneries with some tweak works perfectly for me.

Obviously there are bugs that need to be resolved; pop ins, panning redraws, but overall happy.

Honestly, this is nit picking nothing more. I DO prefer SU5 looks in HDR by a mile.

Has anyone reported the lowered mesh resolution in France to Asobo?

Would you mind summarizing the tweaks you've made please?

There isn't a lower mesh resolution. look at my screenshots on page 2. His LOD settings just haven't loaded properly I'm guessing because of a bug right that that is failing to save the graphics settings.

The SU5 shot of the southern US looks like the clouds are now correctly shading the ground, but the cloud/storm formations shown aren’t the same.

I tend to agree. CTDs are one thing. But I think threads like these go to a different level where folks are just looking for things instead of just enjoying the experience.

It still looks better than FSX or P3D, so even if something has changed, why obsess over it? I know that’s not a popular view.

Control what you can and live with what you can’t control, and know the difference.

Have you tried colorgrading to 0 ?

Also Geforce has some settings that works well with brightness if you use nvidia.

Yep. this is a stunning sim with constant improvements, sometimes a step back is natural. People are spoiled rotten.

Well said Sir they have wasted so much hard work done by so many free or payware nothing works anymore - something as simple as a non Asobo livery will crash your sim - had tons of freezes and crashes unless your content being used is the out of the box content - sad

Feel for you developers and all of your time invested to be destroyed in one fell swoop

And it will all be fixed eventually. This is clearly not intentional.
