Can someone enlighten me regarding the points below?

  • How do I change the lighting so that the horizon does not appear so red at dawn and dusk?
  • Which setting am I looking for to change the LOD Radius?
  • How do I get rid of those weird lime green textures loading in on the Isle of Man? :huh:

There’s a slider for terrain LOD in the graphics menu if that’s what you mean.

I am looking for the setting that determines the distance at which autogen and models are displayed.

That's down to Asobo/MS to address, one of the LODs for the ground imagery contains a mix of the bright green and purple over the Isle of Man. I think above 2000 feet it is a non issue...

Where do I go to report this issue to Asobo? I am aware that plenty of users will have already reported it, but they have had three years to sort it out. It needs to be addressed ASAP.

That would be 'Object' distance slider but it still may not go as far as you'd like.  I keep it at 180.

As for colors, I use Nvidia Freestyle filters to tone the warm tones down in the sim and it also helps with the washed out colors a bit.

I wouldn't waste your time, I reported a visual bug to them once and they suggested I reinstall windows 🤦‍♂️ never bothered since.

Like the bug voting system, it's pointless.

I guess that I will just have to make do with flying over the Isle of Man until this has been sorted out. There is no way that I can use the airport when the ground textures are such a mess.

It's been that way since the UK & Ireland World Update was released in February 2021, you could try uninstalling that update and seeing if that helps.

 

Edit: of course the Tile Loading bug is general so it probably won't help.

While you wait for an Asobo fix you may like to try the Map Enhancement Tool (Flightsim.to)

I just flew a few circuits around EGNS using the Map Enhancement Tool first using Google Maps and then with Bing Maps (Latest).

Google maps improved things only a little but with Bing Maps (Latest) selected the textures and colours looked pretty decent and I saw no issues with tile loading.

I have just experienced my first encounter with the infamous "horizon line" bug. I noticed it in front of the mountains when I was on final approach to runway 09 at KTEX Telluride Regional. Is this bug prevalent under all conditions, and at all times of the day? I did not notice it at all of the other airports that I have arrived at so far, and that includes KFLG Flagstaff Pulliam (which is also in the mountains at relatively high altitude).
