• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

What will FS2020 bring?

Wow Huub! That goes way back. I tried lol.

Hi Bob, Good to see you are also still around :encouragement:

To explain the difference in appearance: You had to put all details of the external model in one single 1024x1024 texture with one alpha layer. Jan Kees already had five 1024x1024 textures with alpha layer to put all details in (for the FSX version even five times 2048x2048). John had two 2048x2028 to put the textures is but also 2 bump maps and 2 spec maps. And all with their own alpha layer.

What struck me was that the model became less polished with every new version :biggrin-new:.

Cheers,
Huub
 
An oldie for sure
