Testing Adam's PTA file


Jack Sawyer

Recommended Posts

Setup, PAVD and Milford Sound.  Various seasons and with AS16 on and an Orbx weather theme.  HDR on too.  One thing I like about HDR is the smaller sun.

Global, Vector, SAK, NZSI, PAVD, Milford, Trees, the works.

 

I have to say, I see a noticeable improvement, and I know these settings are way over my head.

But I like the haze in the distance too.

Sorry for so many, I got carried away with the V key like Mr. Venema.

Thanks guys, Adam's PTA settings have dramatically changed the sim.  But why does it rebuild some shaders every single time I run P3D?  I have only ran PTA once, load his shader set, and whenever I run P3D now I see the plane and the background being rebuilt for a second or two.

I hope you're not re-applying PTA every time you run the P3D!!! :lol:. You only need to do it the once.

 

It'll take a while to rebuild everything - depending on how quickly you visit each different region.

 

Nice pics, BTW! I see you got NZMF in what appears to be our current weather!!!

These look shots look great Jack , I am in the process of a complete reinstall with P3Dv3.4 . My plan is to use PTA also . :):)

 

Cheers

Ouch!  I would rather walk on hot coals than have to do that.  I'd rather pay someone to do it.  It's just too much work.  It took me 5 1/2 months to get my sim to where it is now and it would probably take that long again.  Good luck John!

Very nice shots jack. I see a lot of screenies here from the people if not most coming from p3d. It seems to be a little bit darker than FSX or not? Or is it a filter? I like that look :)

 

I think P3D exaggerates the onset of darkness too much (compared to FSX). A couple of hours either side of mid-day is fine, but 3pm looks more like 5pm - and 9am looks more like 7am. With HDR enabled, I'm finding it really hard to get a good balanace across the whole day.

 

I prefer the hours outside the middle slot, as you get more pronounced scenery/terrain shadows, but I'm finding they can look a tiny bit "gloomy". If I lighten up too much, mid-day gets all bleached out. Still some tweaks to go. I reckon!

 

Adam.
