TE Washington Ghost Mountains

Recommended Posts

Is this a Orbx TE thing or a rendering `flaw' on X-Planes end?

 

One of the Classic views in Washington is "The Mountain" (Rainier) looming in the background but the further you get, a ghosting transition takes place.. 

 

Everything maxed - 100sq mile view distance

 

Basic mountain shape just Nouth of Seattle. If you look close you can see a hint of the full render just barely making itself seen

Get a little closer and you can see a transparent overlay of the full render start to blend in with a the basic mountain shape.. We're South over Seattle now. This view with a `ghost mountain' is very prevalent and distracts from the otherwise great scenery. I can not un-see it at this point.

Even closer and now we now have the full mountain rendered

For what should be a breath taking view of Rainier over Seattle.. We get this instead.  I can't not see this...

As a follow up to this.. I "fixed" the issue myself. More of a payware work around. I forgot I had UltraWeatherXP removed for some prior testing of something unrelated.

 

Reinstalled it..  Bam.. The "Terrain Distance" setting fixed the trick! I'm a happy camper now..
