fltsimguy Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Would someone mind taking a moment and confirming that my TE WA is displaying correctly. Took off from CYCD ( Nanaimo) - which is still incorrectly labeled in the XP11 menu, and headed south toward Duncan (my home town), the transition from default to TE WA starts at this point. I have the HD version installed...but it seems blurry to me, should it be sharper?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BradB Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 One thing that helped me Bryan was to set my visibility to unlimited in XP11 , give that a try and see if it sharpens up some . Cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fltsimguy Posted August 25, 2019 Author Share Posted August 25, 2019 John I did have it turned down but put it up to full and it makes no difference except that my very distant scenery is now showing of course sharper. I'm of course talking about the scenery right below me, which for some reason, just seems to me to be less sharp than it was upon initial install, am I loosing it? A screenie of what others are seeing would be helpful, I at 2,000'. I also use VM-twick VR but this is not impacting sharpness. Bryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Hi Bryan, is it possible to install another XP somewhere on your PC and install only this scenery? This is what I do, I have two installs, one 100% plain vanilla, no plugins whatsoever. This is a great way to troubleshoot. Best regards.

Use a text editor to correct the spelling in line 4 of the apt.dat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentry11 Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 I was curious, so here you go "fltsimguy", HD version. Sure wouldn't want to land at CAM3. Yikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perfect this really helps, basically we are seeing the same level of quality, for some reason I just thought it should be sharper as one got lower to the ground. I was thinking that ZL17 would be crisper. So it looks like mine is just fine. Again thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Yes Jack I have the backup install, exactly like you no plugins, perfect for testing something and then removing it or coping over to the master install.

BobT Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I think it is actually lower resolution in most of the Canadian portion of TE Washington. Looks like ZL16 to me. I would imagine this is a licensing issue with the data... perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be, the other fellow who provided a shot, looked similar, although due to resolution it is hard to tell, but it certainly didn't stand out as being superior that's for sure. Perhaps you are right! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobT Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Well I had a look at my Bing orthos for Victoria that I made and they dont look much better at ZL 17 actually. And the colors are kind of weird. I think the ZL doesn't guarantee 1.2m resolution, just depends on the source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
