Mark Abdey Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 A little mix of caps from TEGB South & TEGB Central in X Plane 11.32... Also using XVision with my own modded preset. I would like to extend a huge thank you to Ken Hall for the help and kindness he has given me... you are a star and these first caps are for you mate Thank you for looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy1252 Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Wonderful set of shots, Mark, truly stunning. And I'm encouraged by your results with your xVision experiments. I did grab a copy of a previous preset you posted here, but it was a bit too bluish for my own personal tastes, and I get a little bit of that here too. But I totally love the tone of the greens, the overall sharpness and the way the shadows are falling. Once I've got a couple of other things sorted out I plan to have a bit of a play with xVision for myself and see if I can get something I'm comfortable with. I'm beginning to think I might need different settings for my two different favourite environments - TE GB being one set of tones, and my California/South West US xOrtho environment being another altogether. Most of these pix though are going into my keepers gallery! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll no doubt end up with as many XVision preset as I did PTA I find a blue cast quite attractive, set off with the green terrain, but it's not for everyone... or me all of the time. Bringing down the visibility in XP knocks out some of the blue, but I will also make presets with a less strong scattering effect. I like to mess with this stuff, finding it quite therapeutic.

Mark Halliwell Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 These are some of the very best shots I have ever seen! Absolutely stunning. I shall definitely be downloading my favourites to show some of my non-simming friends and family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still messing with things and it's not all my own work as I'm working off one of the presets that comes with XV (Impressive) so some values are not ones I've set myself.

FILOU Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 Your preset perfectly matches your "signature".We find here all your visual sensitivity.The shots are there to show aerial emotions and it's completely successful.Everything is here and it makes you want to fly.

Jon Clarke Posted March 15, 2019 Share Posted March 15, 2019 I have to admit that these are some of the finest pics I've seen. They capture several aspects all in one. The effect of light and shadow, the colouring of TEGB, the tree placement detail of TEGB and the ability of XP to produce those effects. Well done and congratulations. At least some should be in the March screenshot competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please share your presets. I will post it soon [when I'm happy with it]... I must add I have used BluFX as well, which I think may have been for XP10 or early 11, but doesn't seem available anymore.
