Despite having terrain precache set to Ultra, I am still experiencing terrain pop-in that did not exist prior to Sim Update 5. I have uploaded the videos below to show the proof. The first video is shot today after World Update 6. You can clearly see the mountains popping into detail as I fly toward…

Sorry was partly for weildychunks who asked where the pre caching option was. Then just my experience of the morphing issues v.s. pop in .

Terrain Morphing has always been there, ORBX have a better method of rendering terrain as seen with their NZ Mesh whereby the morphing is practically invisible. Asobo need to implement what ORBX have.

The pre cache setting only refers to terrain that is outside the players field of view. So everything you can’t see is cached in a much lower quality. While looking around fast it takes some time to get the quality of the terrain back. Hence the popping. This was what people complained about after s…

[image] MarcG888: Terrain Morphing has always been there Yes I agree it has always been there since the game released. And whether it’s any worse now than it was back then, I don’t know.

Go into UserCfg.opt and set these: {Terrain LoDFactor 6.000000 } {OffscreenTerrainPreCaching Enabled 1 Quality 3 } {ObjectsLoD LoDFactor 4.000000 } With your SLI 3090s you can probably go hog wild and set Terrain LoD to 9.000000 or higher. For some reason, my system seems to cap the ObjectsLo…

Hello, I believe that when we refer to “morphing” we are talking about terrain such as mountains gradually / slowly developing irrespective of which camera you are looking at them from. At least for me this has been a problem for a long time, definitely before SU5. Wit SU5 we all faced a new proble…

This is caused by screen space reflections and it’s always been like this. Screen space reflections (as the name sugests) only show reflections of what is on screen. So what’s happening in your video is when you go to outside view, first you’ll see the basic cubemap reflection on the plane (sun/sky)…

Thanks for your reply, so (a) its not only me (my system) and (b) there is not solution ? Maybe I should tone down the reflections option ? I 'd rather have less of them than see them creeping up like that …

A. No B. it’s a limitation in the graphics engine. Solution would be raytracing when dx12 will be implemented. Ofcourse you’ll need a prety beefy RTX gpu for ray traced reflections to work properly.
