I mean, with all due respect, you were satisfied with 30 FPS for a long time before upgrading…not saying you’re wrong, but just different standards.

"Different standards" seems a bit broad and subjective to the point of potentially obscuring reality. If we are truly comparing apples to oranges we would need to both look at images captured from 2020 of old, and 2024 current, from similar distances from various objects, and at a zoom level we would actually use in game. Something like that has the best chance of being as close to an objective comparison as possible. My bet is that if you and I did that somehow, we would likely concur w/ each other.

30FPS was the best I could do at the time and discovering the value of sterling FTV truly made 30FPS tolerable, when that was the best I could reliably get while keeping all parameters at Ultra. It would be hard to accept now that I have become used to 60-90FPS. But I've also traded in best image quality for that higher FPS-fg. Because of the strobe effect in some terrain types using NV DLSS FG at low rates like 60FPS I sometimes have to go to 90 FPS or more....or turn FG off and live with 45FPS-native.

Similar view from 2024 now. I see more detail in this image especially in the mountains and even the grass field immediately below:

  • Just an FYI, for anyone that didn't know, the ground textures in both FS2020 & FS2024 are now capped at Zoom Level 18 since FS2020's Sim Update 16. Both sims now use the exact same ground imagery

    Any visuals from Asobo are heavily "marketed", while not fake, you always see their arty screenshots focusing in on some high fidelity engine cowling or a random piece of scenery with a massive depth

    I stopped using the Map Enhancement app. Whether I'm at 40000 ft or 1000 feet, I get great sharp textures and sharp distant mountain views. I saw no reason to keep subscription paying for textures whe
