But with the way AI is advancing (personally I wish it would die), maybe in the next sim we'll have it.I wish AI would go away as well, but probably a topic for a different thread...lol. But, I am on the same page as you when it comes to that. 😊 AMD Ryzen 9900X3D & ASUS X870E Gaming Plus MB, w/64 Gb GSkill DDR5 RAM, PNY RTX 5090 GPU, lots of SSD's and M.2 drives, HAVN Case, Virpil VPC Panels 2 and 3, Virpil Constellation Alpha Stick, Virpil Rotor TCS Plus w/ Hawk-60 Collective grip, TM TCA Yoke Boeing Edition, TM HOTAS A-10 and F/A-18 Sticks and TM TPR Rudder pedals.

People like to blame the consoles for Asobo downgrading the satellite resolution in both 2024 and 2020, but I would wager the real reasoning behind the downgrade was someone at MS took notice of the bandwidth being used and forced Asobo to cut the resolution to reduce costs.Apple Maps seems to have higher resolution elevation data for many of their 3D locations than Google or Bing maps... I wonder if this is less about any technical differences and more about the lower popularity of Apple Maps negating the extra bandwidth needed for higher resolutions. The resolutions available for commercial and government use are probably crazy detailed.

I haven't seen melted trees or building since SU3 I thinkI for one would love to beleive this. How about some screen shots nice and close to the ground, around 500 feet. If you're looking for a location, I'd suggest the northern side of EGLL..... The buildings there are a melted mess.

8 minutes ago8 min As someone living close to Manhattan, I’d love to see what you guys are seeing from the new World Trade Center. Then there are the bridges that haven’t been fixed (the ones where AI interpreted the shadow beneath as buildings). However, this sim is still the best I’ve ever seen so I can’t complain too much.
