Let's play, "Date that Screenshot"

[Noel 4,499]

I read comments that overall lighting/coloration/and more have changed for the worse in MSFS.  See if you can roughly date the following screenshots I have saved over time.   After a week I'll posted the actual capture dates by #.  NOTE:  BE SURE not to copy the images!  Just use numbers, #1, #2, etc.  Cheers

I reckon the first one was Tuesday morning and the second from last definitely Friday around noon

Think all of them are after 1895

Haha this will be good.

I want to say #6 is very very recent, and #1 is very early in the games history. That's all I can make out as a non-stickler. 😂

Also Noel, just an FYI, Charlie stickied this I think a week ago:

Just one persons opinion here. 

That said i am guessing that no6 is more 'world realistic' and no1 is a bit more  'animated', for want of a better word.

 

So to stay focused with the topic i would guess the same as the above post

Yes I'm sorry I thought the screenshot posting was for copying/quoting the post above.  I asked Charlie to just delete the post.

Well I have a feeling this topic is pretty much buried. Mods, can we make an exception just this once? I was really looking forward to seeing lots of guesses but if it is in this neck of the woods, not a lot of eyes will be on it.

Yep, it's going to disappear fast!  Oh well, here you go:

#1:  Fussen, Bavaria ~ Sept 2020  (good call WestAir!)

#2:  Medellin, CO - Jan 2022

#3:  Kansas City, MO - Jan 2022

#4:  Sydney, NSW - April 2022

#5:  Gunnison, CO - April 2021

#6:  Ukiah, CA - Nov 2021  (oops, WestAir!)

#7:  Telluride, CO - April 2021

#8:  Near Stockton, CA - Nov 2021

#9:  Venice, IT - May 2022

#10:  Rotenburg aub der Taber, DE - same as #1 ;o)

I don't see much difference in these myself.  I think there needs to be add'l work on coloration but when Asobo integrates shader-based seasonal changes this should be a major change.  No, don't have inside knowledge on this it's just a guess about where they will go with it based on geolocation.
