Pete, I can promise, you are not alone...maybe we are in a group of two, but not by yourself Something I have been mentally processing regarding MSFS as of late is that considering how, in general, default MSFS scenery overall looks really good in most places. Add to that an addon scenery like Orbx or others, and it gets better. So much better, that in fact, for me, when I see things like the melted looking trees or buildings that look like they were in a war zone and partially rubbled or crumbling (this in Photogrammetry mode), or as an example, around Portland Oregon all the bridges and ramps leading up to the bridges look like giant walls. When flying through such good looking scenery, then making a turn in my aircraft to be confronted with views like that, it kills the immersion for me fast. This is for me, I think the juxtaposition of having such good looking scenery generally, which causes anomalies that pop up to be that much more jarring. This in turn causes me to turn off Photogrammetry mode only to then think, "wow, all the buildings look kind of bland now". So, it's put me in a position where I am not happy either way, and why I say I am mentally looking at things with MSFS in a different light at present. It further bothers me because I have really been enjoying digging into flying the excellent study level DC-6, from another developer, but these scenery 'things' I described above are sticking me in the side. The Photogrammetry tech is very interesting, I just would be very excited to see it improved so that I don't have to see scenery that looks like it was bombed or came out of the movie Inception. One can hope. Anyhow, I digress....in summation, you are not alone (I sound like an X-Files poster....lol) Cheers! Landon -
Very nice approach shots there Graeme, and I nice livery on the Cessna as well. Landon

DH-89 Dragon Rapide at Orbx EGKA Shoreham - MSFS

What an oddball of an aircraft, although looking pretty cool in these shots Looks like it would be a bit awkward to handle, especially when landing. -

Sniper31 replied to ikbenik's topic in Community Screenshots
Some great shots here of an area that you don't see too often in the flight sim community...well done! -
Again with the awesome and scenic collection of screenies Carlos. Saying "great shots" does not do these justice.

Wow Carlos, you are on a roll with these awesome shot collections! Amazing!

A Few From Bromma & a Surprise Tattoo
Sniper31 replied to TigerTigerM's topic in Community Screenshots
Great chain of shots TTM, love the pics! Scenery is sure looking good Marcus Landon -
Marcus, thank you very much for taking the time to break all these explanations down....it gives a window view of how much work developers like you put into these amazing scenery products a lot of the time. The transparency is much appreciated. I look forward to more development from you, whether it be on updates or new projects. Again, thank you! Cheers! Landon

Some great looking shots Adam! Now, I don't know my tubeliner's that well, so I don't know if that is a 737, an Airbus of some type or something else. But I do know that it looks like a tight squeeze on some of those taxiways for that bird Nice job maneuvering here into position. Cheers! Landon
-
Lovely Spit shots here Adam! Loving the "classic" shot especially, but they are all great screenies showcasing the elegant Spitfire Cheers! Landon
-
Very interesting set of shots of your suspenseful approach into Bromma! You snapped some really cool ones here Landon

Thanks for all the super nice comments everyone I have not posted any screenshots in the last 48 hours or so because I am waist deep into learning the ins and outs of the PMDG DC-6 for MSFS, so have been too busy reading the manual, tutorials, figuring out the cockpit, tweaking my controls for the DC-6, and....and...and...well, anyone else that flies that particular 4 engine beauty will understand I will have to get some shots of her flying over some Orbx land up here soon.
