The colours belong in some LSD-induced nightmare, not a flight sim from the second decade of the 21st Century. Other than that, it's fine.
Well. You really know that the difference between this:



and this:



is the landscape quality settings ( and some ATI drivers problems ), right?
As both shots are from the same game. SO, would you really say the same about the second image?

Very nice picture Ailantd Can you tell us what the ingame settings are?

I would really like to see some screenshots of the german airfields in France especially the ones at Cherbourg, Le Tourquet, Sempy and Neuville.

Hope some one will take the time

Best regards

Henrik

The main cause of the difference is the time of day. Clod looks better at sunrise and sunset than it does nearer the middle of the day.

I wouldn't hold any breath in anticipation, there are quite a few inadequacies in terms of detail at many airfields, I did take a look at Le Touquet myself and it is nothing more than a grass strip with some fortified aircraft parking......no hangars or buildings at all.

Heinkel picture=France, probably on lower settings.
Spit pic=blighty with high settings (although, to look like England, trees need to get darker in the distance, and hedgerows are needed!)

Please throw me a screenshot

Hope we can remedy this shortcoming when the moderation tools become available.. Or just use the FMB..

Besides down sized pictures always look way better.

I did that screenshot, you can see my settings below.

The airfields are empty usually, just some default buildings, you should be in a mission to see them lively and with vehicles, objects and extra buildings.

With the Full Mission Builder you can put there whatever thing, hangars towers, vehicles, ...

Settings :



France at 9:00 AM (Default time settings)
