If the method they're using for trees is so efficient, maybe it could also be used to add grass, and other general ground clutter. EDIT: grass/trees/water reacting to rotor downwash would be great for immersion! EDIT: And brownouts over sand! I think some sim modeled that... DCS? Or maybe I'm possibly wrong.

August 4, 20214 yr MSFS2020 has a dynamic Grass and Bush simulation, that makes all the difference for Bush Flying. It only appears close to the ground, and makes everything so much more realistic, with barely a hit in fps. They should think of implementing that as well! Alexis Mefano

It only appears close to the ground, and makes everything so much more realistic, with barely a hit in fps. They should think of implementing that as well! No reason to not be possible as 3d dynamic grass, as well with seasons. It was possible before but bound to the non animated tree quad limitation. What still needed though is a way to corollate grass and ground textures instead of manually/script placing them, although manually is just ok for airports, it's only crafting some polygons. But a channel on .terr files is welcomed. Edited August 5, 20214 yr by akita

From ordering comments by "Most Relevant" (and I'd rather be the judge of that), from deciding for me what is fake news or not and what is the correct political side to be on... Sadly, I guess I'll have to live without knowing what my Aunty May had for her lunch yesterday 40 minutes ago, akita said: No reason to not be possible now as 3d dynamic grass, as well with seasons. Really not a fan of the way this is done in MFS.. The grass is way too big and exaggerated that it makes any airport look like it's been abandoned or in bad need of buying a grass cutter or two. Grass fields are absolutely crazy, no airstrip with a grass runway would ever let their grass get that long. It does seem to have been tweaked over the years, but to me, it just makes it look cartoonish and unnecessary. I'd personally rather have dynamic textures with correct lighting/materials perhaps.
