Nobody in this post is talking about trees other than you, and comparing them to X-Plane.
My concern is 2 things that took a huge hit since SU5 on my high-end PC with a RTX 3080 graphics card:
- Clouds,
- Shimmering (especially in VR using my G2 Reverb).
The second being a logged bug with over 130 votes, 152 posts and over 3,000 views.
As for the clouds, I am not complaining about what they looked like before SU5, but since then, they don’t look the same, see my post here (and there are many other documented examples in this forum):
Other than the above, I am looking forward to all kinds of other improvements and updates, especially related to realism (as I am a pilot myself)
I hope this concludes our little side discussion.
