In SU5 they introduced a color depth bug that caused color banding and AA shimmering but things have been fixed since SU6 and the AA shimmering has been totally fixed in SU10 beta. Clouds are also perfect in SU10 beta, no pixellation and pure white color. Also mountain and coastline morphing has been improved a lot.
You regret SU4 but do you realize that in SU4 cubemap reflections in low wind conditions and coastlines looked like this? These screenshots were posted by me, Ultra settings.
While on the other hand you show no proof, no screenshots to support that SU4 graphics was better than now… just feelings, hearsay, prejudices as in most cases.
Trust me, it was waaay worse, and the performance was abysmal due to the glass panel displays in sync with the framerate.
Framerate and stuttering in SU4:
P.S.
The Alaska bush trip looks like this now. Sorry if it’s not SU4 anymore, LOL
