I just recently, like yesterday, downloaded msfs 2024 on my pc with my game pass. Before that i was playing msfs 2020. I was pleased to see that it is very stable now. I also downloaded and installed on my pc everything i could in the library.
I’m playing VR with a quest 3. I was suprised i can put ultra resolution in virtual desktop, in msfs 2020 i have to keep it to high otherwise i experience a lot of micro stutters, but in msfs 2024 everything is fluid even when flying above cities with photogrametry. I use dlss instead of taa but everything is smooth and stutter free.
The only thing i can’t explain is the feel or sense of height, it seems to be more realistic in msfs 2020. I tweaked the world scale to 90% because the cockpits seem to big. I also decrease luminosity of 0,5. I played with graphics but i can’t explain why, even when flying like at 10000 feet in a ga aircraft it doesn’t seem to be high compare to msfs 2020. Keep in mind i’m playing VR. Did anybody experienced something similar?
Yes, did you try 3D Depht Boost Mod for OpenXR? That make a huge change for me in how the mountains feels around you. Give it a try, but your eyes and brain need a little time to get used to
Recent updates aimed at accommodating consoles have significantly degraded the resolution. The resulting lack of visual sharpness creates a misleading sense of altitude, making you feel much closer to the ground than you actually are. This is an issue that the Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 community has been widely discussing for a while in this forum.
Ohh that’s interesting! So microsoft did have to lower the overall quality of graphics to enable msfs 2024 to be played on multiple platforms (xbox, playstation and pc). That can be true or not. But no one knows for sure…I mean, this is just a myth right? Nobody from Asobo ever said that they had to lower the quality of graphics to accomodate 3 different consoles.
I do tend to believe you because i know you have a backgroung in computer science and also because that explains why i feel that the landscapes are a bit more blurry, lack of details compare to msfs 2020 and that even at a higher altitude i feel close to the ground.
But if it is true, why in msfs 2020 (which is also on xbox and pc) i can feel a better sense of altitude then?
