I get it... but you're almost never flying that low unless you're at a hospital or police helipad. That angle was more for a comparison pic of the real one 🙂 I'd rather see a realistic structure than a random building imo. It's especially annoying to not use PG in an area I'm familiar with hehe. Plus I think the newer style is actually quite good. This is the original PG. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

Definitely has become a quantity over quality dev. Will be getting giving this a miss.

Not saying it's great, but it's consistent. Editor-in-Chief at SimulationDaily.com

And they'll still be slightly melted in the distance. | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |
August 28, 20241 yr Well, I'm a confirmed scenery junkie, and I was pleased to see this pop up in my inbox - I've got most of their other stuff. But as usual I went to check what the default cities looked like, and I have to say I can't see any benefit at all in buying this package. The cities concerned all look fine to me in the standard PG, and the buildings included here seem very nondescript. Even getting pretty close up with the PG it still looked better than this package to my eyes. Very disappointed. Guess I'll pass on this for now (I say that because I might weaken - I've had plenty of products in the past that actually look a lot better on my system than they do in their sales/promo shots) Ryzen 9 7900X, Corsair H150 AIO cooler, 64 Gb DDR5, Asus X670E Hero m/b, 3090ti, 13Tb NVMe, 8Tb SSD, 16Tb HD, 55" Philips 4k HDR monitor, EVGA 1600w ps, all in Corsair 7000D airflow case.

Yeah, the reason to have this kind of add-on isn't so much to go look at the buildings up close, but because they retain the shape of the skyline from a distance.

August 29, 20241 yr Samscene quickly got back to me and said they would make some changes.
