  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

P3D/P4D screenshots redux...oops!

The secret is to convert the glass to PBS. I recollect someone telling me you could try turning off the dynamic reflections too.

DaveQ
Leads me to another question. Is it just the glass texture that needs converting? To be honest I’m not all that excited about PBR texturing in this sim, especially on painted surfaces.
 
Yes. No need to convert anything else as far as I can see. But glass can be a bit of pain to get right.

DaveQ
 
OK. Dave, seems turning Dynamic Reflections to zero (or off) got rid of the blue tint. Next step will be to correct the now milky or cloudy looking glass on some of the addon aircraft. The Hellcat glass looks good with just the DR turned off. Thanks for that tip.
 
The water is from skyforce or softclouds?

Cees
Cees, to be honest, I have no idea. Either-or. This addons were installed 5 years ago and my system is running perfectly since then.
So I enjoy my sim but in many cases, I have no idea what is working here or there. Furthermore, I unfortunately don't have much time for flying currently but like to share some of my former made screenshots...

But if you like, I can have a look at for clarification.

Some more relating to this... Water and lighting is great with REX....
