Thanks TheOriginalBabu for the info.

Viralwhite: Are you using Developer Mode or made changes in it? I used developer mode to verify volumetric lighting was on. With the check mark…is this the volumetric setting you’re referring to? [Screenshot 2021-08-02 103338]

Glad to hear that, Olie. Cheers!

Thanks Viralwhite, are there any other note worthy check marks that should be in the Dev mode?

Great to hear. I hope fixing this also gets rid of the weird Sepia filter. Everything has a yellowish tint. After that I hope LOD, Autogen, Shadows and Anti-Aliasing will get a rework to restore them to their former glory as well.

I agree about the sepia filter. Needs to go!

I don’t know if this is the same volumetric lighting problem, but it’s lighting in clouds. I made a comparison video of SU5 flying through a thunderstorm, to a video I had of an old build from August 2020 with mostly the same conditions (hard to recreate exactly) Check out the comparison in this p…

Just flew in thick cloud with rain at night. The rain drops were well lit up with taxi lights on. There was no cloud lighting up as I have seen in SU4. I enabled the Dev mode lighting and and all graphic options but still no diffused lighting.
