Exactly the same 'veil' on the OLED screen, which was HDR too!

The monitor I now have is not HDR, but is still bright enough and I appreciate the wider FOV too.  The OLED screen is very good for blacks, so the display had great contrast, yet this AOC AGON Monitor, although not quite as good, still has good contrast which you can see in the screen shots.

Way back in FSX and P3D days for me I used to turn Gamma down and brightness up and this cleared this kind of near field haze quite a bit.  I can do that now but then virtual cockpits get too dim.

All Ultra in 2024, Render Scale 130:  the last few thousand feet on approach then landing and taxi to the arrival gate in the Fenix 320 at LFPO, exquisite smoothness and freedom from stuttering.  This is NV DLSS FG

 

I'm really jealous. What sim settings are you using?

I've used the same settings since discovering the best of all options for locking frames is RTSS' Front Edge Sync, best in terms of not only best frame time variance (correlates w/ subjective sense of smoothness) but also gives one the ability to lock/unlock/change the rate during runtime (no need interrupt a flight) and published a thread about this to share with others here:  https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/628655-ultimate-smoothness-at-modest-frame-rates/#findComment-4899096

Being able to lock/unlock is useful for me when using NV DLSS FG when there is rate-related aberration (flicker/strobe in high contrast tarmac mostly) a simple keypress opens the lock and the rate jumps up to the max possible w/ my settings.  TLOD for me if I were not using DynamicLOD_Reset would be left at 200 and as TLOD is the most demanding on the main thread you might need to be a bit lower w/ your current CPU.  I generally run at 60FPS-fg because most of a flight the flicker/strobe is not bothersome.

Here is the basic setup in RTSS for this:

 

I think they added collision lights to high voltage lines
they may have been in SU4 when they added the new powerline models, but I don't recall see them before. Maybe someone here can remember for sure.

So I checked his signature and found out why. He is using almost the best hardware available.

Are the taxi lights also a more bluish tone? I always found that MSFS's taxi lights colors are too "warm".

Reshade was mentioned above. In this video is telling how to use it and set it up to engage or disengage with a single hotkey. 

But look at 3:15 he goes from 107 fps (reshade off) to about 90 (reshade on). So the better colors comes with  a performance hit, apparently.

 

@Fielder.  It looks great.  I will take the hit down to 90 FPS! 
My monitor can only do 60 FPS at 4k anyway.

Read the linked thread Fielder you missed the real point.  The hardware used in my linked thread was 2 CPUs older than what I'm using now, and the GPU was a 3080Ti not a 4090.  RTSS w/ Front Edge Sync beats them all for subjective sense of smooth animation.

Nah, that's just how they look at ini's OMDB

That might not be possible with AIG models obtained from other sources ... have to check with AIG devs, but last I heard there was no change to the issue.  Apparently the developer of vPilot has a solution but doesn't provide any details (I've asked):

https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/vpilot-beta-solves-missing-landing-gear/750138

Since I don't do VATSIM, I don't use vPilot and I don't know if vPilot will ONLY work with VATSIM or if the developer has a more global solution to the missing landing gear.

It's pretty much the only thing that's missing for me.  My heart sank when I saw my floaty AI traffic in the beta and knew that nothing could be done.  

Pretty much perfectly content with the rest of the sim.

I’ll wait until SU5 goes final and if the issue remains, then I’m afraid I’ll have to switch out the AIG models for other models that do work in MSFS 2024 even if livery variation/support is VERY limited.  It’s definitely a big distraction to see AI aircraft doing their Star Wars hovering trick.

I cannot get the hot keys to do anything. I defined several but I can't see them doing anything. The framerate limiter seems to be working fine but the hot keys I set up to toggle the display and to toggle the limiter don't appear to be doing their job. Any advice?

Not just to high voltage powerlines, to all obstacles!  A wonderful addition for us VFR flyers.

Just a reminder to re-swap your latest dlss file - my DLAA looked terrible in the beta and I forgot about the file being overriden by the beta

Is there still night lighting on autogen even though the windows are missing in the beta?
