This seems to be limited to PG cities and airports that are inside the PG area…HOWEVER…could we have this as a feature, atleast for where there is pg scenery? The ground textures with the SU1 beta are preeeettyy sharp now, and the pg bleeding through is looking awesome on some airports, closer to photorealism than with any synthesized textures, it captures the intricate details of the scenery, aprons, taxiway, runway dirts and rubbermarks.

These are taken from a freeware Gulfport Biloxi which has quite nice but pretty simple textures…just look at the detail?

I mean if Asobo could train their AI to somehow erase the ground markings and airplanes only this would be a godsent?!

Tbh this would add that extra bit of realism to where ever theres pg scenery since its more high resolution than the regular orthophotos

[Squibby6134]

It’s anywhere there is photogramametry present. Happens at nzwn and nzaa with the third party flightbeam sceneries.

No issue at wsss with the cloudsurf scenery for example in a non photogramametry area

With LOWW from Gaya the satellite Imagery is bleeding through the texture of the scenery around the current position.

This was already an issue during the Alpha Test phase. So maybe this is connected to the testing servers and will be resolved with the final release - like it was after the Alpha.
Or maybe an old Bug has a comeback with the Beta, so I think it is worth reporting.

Hi all,

Thanks for your reports and included information with this. I’ll log it into our internal system momentarily!

The MSFS Team

[HohleFritte2583]

Same problem here.

1 step forward, 125 steps back.

[Chewwy94]

We have created an internal ticket to see if our team already has this logged, and if not they will attempt to reproduce the issue and create a new bug report. This item is now marked as feedback-logged. If there is an existing bug report or one is created, we will move this thread to bug-logged.

[McDaniel777900]

Same here in LSZB, and yes Bern is a PG City.

[TFEV1909]

Again, one wonders how this can get into the beta without anyone noticing/fixing it before the beta commences… It is so obvious and present at a lot of sites.
