Sepia mask & light bloom at night still not fixed. Unrealistic ground effects still present. Unrealistic glow at night

So I did look around a bit in the MSFS forums and found that a similar issues were brought up in FS2020 way back. Which leads me to believe that FS2024, with all issues considered, is based on an earlier version of FS2020.

Night lighting issues still present - The community solutions

I flew over some areas during night and I have to say that I really don’t like it…Its too uniformed and reminds me of Xplane…I started this post in hope that they will see it and revert back to the one that we had..If you agree please vote for that…its a pity going backwards in reality..

FS2020

These aren’t the same cities but you get the idea.

I hope they take what they did with FS2020 and apply it here in FS2024
