This pretty much became like this since SU5 or SU6.
Noone seemed to have mentioned it so I will.
for reference my settings:
(I only turned off HDR here or else the screenshot of my settings would be unreadable)
In my experience airports look less detailed at 5000ft in real life too.
I’m not sure what your expecting to see. Is there anything specific you could describe that you don’t think is right and then we could check it on our setup?
The terrain level of detail determines how far away things get detailed. You can turn that up to 400. With full screen resolution set to 4k you can turn texture supersampling off or 2x2 to get back some performance. At high resolutions you need less antialiasing (supersampling).
The problem is that it’s not a manner of being less detailed.
That would be quite normal.
But in this case, once u pass a certain altitude above airport it ‘instantly’ becomes a pixelated mess.
I’m sure there are better LOD methods to go about this.
Just go into drone camera in any airport and slowly go up, you’ll see what i mean.

I think msfs looks worse than xplane with ortho at 30000ft. It’s pretty awful in my opinion. On ultra I should have added with 200
