no doubt there are some pixles but where I come from - FSX and little XP - this is just a huge step and great improvement, plus when actually flying = moving it is even looking better, those stills don't do that justice. but as said before, very subjective topic. I am happy what I get and see

Same here ... Apart from adding perhaps true cirrus when they overhaul the weather engine this is pretty decent. I'm not saying that everyone's concerns shouldn't  at least be triaged and assessed but there are bigger issues with the weather than simple appearance right now. Let them try and fix that first then we can come back to "color banding and pixellation"

Won't happen if there's no awareness that issues exist. Hence the link for upvoting. Where's the damage?

no harm, just voted

Ive already seen the color banding comments on the FS forums since SU5... Im sure they are aware. Further .. The last time people created uproars Asobo has a tendency to "misread" and overdo what was requested. (Night lighting) .. At some point stuff is what it is ( this aspect is somewhat subjective after all).. and there are bigger objective items to fix. But that's my opinion. This is the best the sim has looked in a very long time. Let them move to the stuff under the hood..

They can get back to appearance later is all im saying.

After su5 update clouds quality degraded. Even with ultra settings, im seeing pixelation and grainy clouds. Not always, depending on light and cloud location. 

Its a simulator with vanilla weather system, from my own POV, clouds look awesome, minor artifacts are in no way an immersion killer for me.

Agreed (from the view of a low and slow flyer). On the official forums there are megathreads analyzing clouds pixel by pixel at ultra resolution, but I doubt a normal pilot discerns these. We may also keep in mind that resources bound by these (imo) minor issues may be drawn away from much more serious problems like daytime runway lighting, cars driving on taxiways, or AI/Live  traffic shortcomings.

This makes me think twice before voting.

Kind regards, Michael

To fully simulate the effects of anthropogenic climate change we need contrail cirrus as well. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-018-04068-0


With the current clouds I would say Asobo have gone for too much dynamic range......either washed out, too bright or too dark. No nuances.

Same on the scenery and aircraft. I now don't like flying in midday sun during the summer.

From what I have read, it seems to me that nobody has the problem that I have. This image reflects what I mean, and I have been dragging this aspect from U5. 

 

Even with the ULTRA option for clouds, it remains the same

Why don't you post a screenshot of what you're seeing when you report these things. This can be a very subjective matter but overall the clouds look amazing in SU6. But it could also depend on a lot of things that may affect what you're seeing. Your settings, computer specs, display, etc. Even in the real world, sometimes clouds can look ugly and then certain ones can look pretty. They come in all different size and shapes.

This reminds me of a post a while back on this topic, in which the author said that he had been walking around outside his house and thought, man, those clouds up there sure do look unrealistic! I agree that the clouds in MSFS are amazing. Of course some will disagree, but my suspicion is that there is something wrong with their settings (or else they actually do have a problem with real-world clouds!).

The strangest thing is that all the images of mountains, buildings, etc., look very good. It is only with clouds at average heights at FL280 and above

Possibilities

You have a monitor setting called "super resolution" enabled and you need to turn it off. Or depending on your graphics card you have the software graphic card equivalent turned on. 

Im not saying you might not have this issue without some resolution enhancement stuff enabled. But its usually not this bad unless it is enabled. Because looking at the image of the aircraft it appears way too sharp.

Thanks for giving me some light. I can confirm that my Samsung Odyssey G9 monitor does not have any settings similar to Super Resolution. If I can say that I have Freesync Standard enabled (Not Ultimate as this mode produces image flashes).

I can also confirm that in the AMD Radeom Software configuration there is no Super Resolution option either. What I did find is the Image Sharpening = Enable option. I just set it Disable to see if I have any improvements.

I dont know about your samsung .. I dont have one .. but i know with certainty that there is a Radeon setting that gives the exact same effect as super resolution

Please refer to the setting "Radeon Image Sharpening" ..

 

ALSO .. on your monitor . refer to the Samsung Magic Upscale feature.

https://www.samsung.com/hk_en/support/computing/what-is-magic-upscale-on-my-monitor/

 

Please ensure both of these features are turned off.
