The lighting in XP 12 is much better than XP 11. Lighting in XP 11 is garbage, IMO.

from the videos i have watched my XP11 with XVISION and other addons looks much better than XP12

Ahh, ok. Anyways, I am referring to the default lighting for XP 11.

The lighting looks better and more realistic with a higher dynamic range in colors as compared to MSFS. This in itself is a huge accomplishment from the Laminar team. They really mastered the photometric data.

I can't disagree more with that. The lighting is absolutely nothing like in real life. That's one thing that MSFS has absolutely nailed, the lighting and tone of the general atmosphere is superb and very life-like. XP12 in its current form doesn't come close.

Thats your point of view, Ive watched some of the other videos, to me xplane is more real, its a subjective thing.

Ooooh no, not seeing that at all.

Man this thing needs ortho, and badly! Ive added GB north from Orbx that I had for XP11, and its made a world of difference!

Does HDR even works ? I am also on a LG C1 with hdr turned on in windows but I don't see the hdr toggle button in game. I don't think HDR is working right now.

I am not sure, I do not see any toggle either. Apparently they 'built it in' according over the org forums?

Yeah me too, and I don't see any option

Edit: I just tried turning HDR on in Windows and it seems to work so far. Colours look better.

Does anyone know how to get snow to appear on the ground? I'm currently using the demo version. I set the weather to -20, chose late December, and moderate precipitation. Still no snow:(

I am not.  It may be due to me running at 1440p.

Has anyone else spotted the UFO which I guess is an Easter egg? It was following me near Portland. I made a video recording. As I recorded in HDR, the highlights are all totally blown so ignore that part. The truth is out there...
