Those are photogrammetric trees. So they are actually there IRL.

Apparently not. The man seems to have such a passion for what he’s doing, that by now I’m certain he’d offer most of what he’s doing for free.

The fact that he’s asking for a fee (which is very reasonable if we compare the value of Seasons to almost all other less critical, mediocre and more expensive addons) is just a bonus to the community so we can enable him to keep on making his magic and benefitting us all.

Can you do something about the wrong colorimetry of the 2 Vexcel countryside TIN area in the Alps ? One is between Swiss and Germany, roughly between south of Lake Constance and Lucern, including Liechtenstein. It is very washed out with a severe blue tint in some areas.
The other one is in France, roughly from Sisteron to Briançon, with the same washed out colors, blueish and brownish.





I tried to address those areas, but unfortunately, the new terrain mask and TIN updates are incompatible with the SDK materials. This issue also affects the Los Angeles mountains. Additionally, my previous spring mask, which worked in 2020, is no longer compatible in 2024. Fortunately, these issues are limited to a few areas, as the mask functions correctly in most other regions in MSFS 2024.

Excellent work! I wish you could do the same for much of Australia. Even in FS 2020 there was an overabundance of red patches in fields, as if we all live in the “red centre” of the outback. In FS2024 its much, much worse, with the red areas becoming almost purple in colour; totally inaccurate and a real immersion killer.

I’ll upload some examples later to show what I mean.

In the meantime, thank you again for the work you did in Tasmania at Mt Wellington, it was much appreciated.

Hahah. It’s “only” the smallest continent. No problem!

I know, lol. I don’t expect miracles and would be happy for any improvement. But hey, there may be a way to to do it quickly via a script or something. Faster than expecting Asobo to improve it anyhow, as they never have so far.

I just finished parts of Europe and wait for feedbacks. Future updates will include enhancements to additional regions worldwide.
Australia shouldn’t be any problem.

Hello Bijan,

Do masks affect road color ?

Thanks

Olivier

Not at all. Roads and airports and runways are not effected.
I will post more screenshots.

It amazes me that Asobo can spend so much time and energy introducing all the great flora and fauna for the new sim…the trees, bushes, wildlife, and all the other enhancements like radio masts and power pylons, yet still have the same inaccurate texture colours and misplaced vegetation they have now…and never change things when people raise issues, or just bother to talk to them.

Yet one guy who knows what he’s doing, just one guy, who listens and interacts with people can make such a difference.

I see Netherlands within the area. blossoming tulip fields? Quite spectacular to fly over.
But I think that you once told me that this was quite complicated to build.

This is only terrain color correction.
No tulips are available in MSFS 2024.

The only thing that can be done to the colorize the field. No real flowers.
