The superb tree density/LOD in the early days was possibly one of the greatest things about this sim. Update: This is now moot as a 3rd party at simmarket has now made a tree LOD fix which allows you to see trees as far as you can see with very little impact on the system. This what it was like, …

Well well well,… Thank you for the link to the xml file. The 75/75 was an eye opener. I adjusted to 73/73 then increased my LOD terrain in the USerdfg.opt file to 2.5 and object to 8.5 (Max setting in game is 2 for LOD terrain and Objects) Those are my settings to taste.

@BilingualHarp7 @anon69344611 @GTPILOT7596 You might want to really read the topic I’ve linked to above as this explains exactly what is the actual bug (there is a bug). More specifically to get started: [08OCT2020 Update] Then to further the topic, the update I’ve just posted: [16OCT2020 Upd…

Ah I fail to mention they appear as you get closer. That’s what I have been noticing.

I do agree there was a marked decrease in visual fidelity from the release to now, but it was in favor of performance. This is fine, but for those looking for more fidelity, there should be an option to return the detail to what it was before.

The bug does not only concern the trees, there are also the buildings which are impacted, when I fly over Paris the landscape is ugly and it constantly twinkles and the buildings are not as well detailed as in the Alpha version and however I am in Ultra mode. I have a lot of screenshots of the Alph…

Hello, thanks for your help, I will test the sim with the attached files :slightly_smiling_face:

Birnam Wood of Shakepearean fame in reality vs. in MSFS 2020 v1.9.5.0 - still way too many trees, pretty overdone vs. reality: Blackshark.ai - Too many trees, in too many wrong places - #28 by JALxml

What happened to this game/sim… used to look so much better. The lod distance for scenery is terrible now. [downgrade]

we need proper viewing distances. even X-Plane and P3D draws night lighting for example from buildings further. It takes away quite alot from the immersion
