Hi, how can I improve radius for rendering textures in the distance? Textures near by the plane are ok, but in distance, they are blurry, I know any computer is not ready for rendering textures in 50kms radius, but textures are blurry on the very next hill
I have tried to increase LOD factor, but it wonât increase the radius of âtexture renderingâ, textures in the distance are blurry even with higher lod value. Anisotropic filtering and texture synthesis also doesnât do the job and my xbox network setting is okay.
Please, what I have to change to have loaded textures in bigger distance?
They reduced the overall viewdistance since 1.9.3, so currently there´s nothing you can do. In 1.8.3 it was much bigger. Now you have less objects and less texture quality at the distance. They said they will increase it a little bit. I guess they are currently looking for a proper balance.
All screenshots took on high/ultra preset with no connection issue. Honestly, FS2020 in distance nowdays looks like some bad quality ortho for FS 2004.
I complained about this for months. I could be wrong, but I donât think Asobo even acknowledged it as an issue. How anyone can tolerate this is beyond me. Iâve posted side-by-side comparison images with X-plane in the past and itâs just silly that X-planeâs textures are noticeably higher resolution.
Not noticed it much myself, but perhaps they are balancing performance to get the best for people who are new to PC (and soon to come Xbox) flight sims and likely have lower capability rigs. Having said that, for people who are prepared to spend big bucks on a flight sim PC, it would be nice if we had an advanced settings menu to take advantage of the ability to tune settings that the casual user would shy away from (i.e. more sliders). It is a marketing consideration for Microsoft how they maximise sales and enthusiasm for a flight sim to a larger audience after all, especially with the new Xbox version coming.
I think both audiences can be catered for though, so I hope they take notice.
I agree here ⌠as a developer is very frustrating that ramp markings and the massive effort that has gone into the custom scenery is now in a very bad state on approach. I get the need to LOD things ⌠but this one is terrible.
Our NZA trailers are going to suffer on this one.
The fact that they dont even want to address this issue in anything but the vaguest of terms leads me to believe that it was intentional and is going to stay this way. Its a deal killer for me which means no more money from me for ASOBO or MS
Is this problem widespread? Not an avid forum reader but Iâve not noticed this before.
Speaking for myself and being new to the latest flightsims, of the above two pix the top one looks okay, if a little hazy, to me - reminiscent of the monitor Iâve just replaced with a much better resolution. I see your point about the bottom one though, not acceptable.
My new Samsung 27" gives me super sharp images, so much so that at times it looks a bit unreal, and Iâve just started experimenting with screen shots - got some fantastic scenery on a late autumn afternoon in the Shetlands (would post but donât yet know how to!).
Iâd guess you have decent kit so maybe thereâs something up with your setup or settings - not trying to preach or anything but a lot of the complaints Iâve read throughout the various forums suggest to me that they are surely down to equipment and not always to Asobo/MS.
MS say they have sold over a million copies of MSFS2020 but I havenât seen more than a handful of complaints or an outcry in the media which surely would have been the case if the programme is indeed faulty.
This problem is widespread, but a lot of people are ignoring it, because:
⢠they are flying low-altitude VFRs flight, when issue is not so noticeable
⢠they have not been flying since the very release of sim, so they wonât see difference
⢠they just simply donât look further, because the 1 km radius around the plane looks fantastic (yet?)
If the first screenshot looks acceptable for you (even thereâs tree radius like 500 metres around the plane and building radius about 1,2km) then okay, but for me itâs not acceptable, because when I have bought the sim, it was looking fantastic, not like nowdays.
