Anyone else feel like the simulator looks terrible now after the update? I normally play on high end, but I ended up turning it up to Ultra and turning terrain detail etc all the way up and it still looks nowhere near as good as it did before! Don’t see much posting about the visual aspect of the p…

yes definitely not fixed and the mod is next to useless before that anyway

It’s really sad how they keep downgrading the graphics. I’m not a developer but if they are doing it because of adding loads of features, it’s just a bad optimizing. Trees, terrain, night lighting, noisy clouds, all of those are way way worse than some time after release.

They briefly mentioned it during the QA session. I really hope they don’t limit pc version to cater to the xbox audience. For once I REALLY hope I’m completely wrong.

These kinds of giant plants are a known problem occuring in photogrammetry areas and have been around since the first release back in August. Has nothing to do with the recent updates. :wink:
