I am still in awe of FS2020. Those screenshots are awesome....it's getting harder to tell from real. All this and I've been getting 30 plus FPS from the get-go.

Yeah, I find that I need to look twice, as at first glance they are real photos. With MSFS even with rubbish weather it still looks great.

Thanks, gents!

The game-changer for me is that you no longer need all those fancy add-ons for water textures, cloud textures, sky colours etc. etc. Apart from the convenience, all that money adds up.

The default A320 can't compete with a full-blown commercial equivalent (from Aerosoft, Toliss - or PMDG for the Boeings) but for a default aircraft it's damn' good. I suppose it leaves the door open for the usual 3rd party developers to offer theirs.

What [still] amazes me is that all these fancy graphic effects (plus all the ground AI activity) seem to be able to work without creating a total slide show. Sure - there's lots still to do ... but what an incredible foundation to build on!

So good... the water nails it for me.
I have spent more on Water than Whiskey over the years :D
Love all your water shots, particularly.

Ehh Adam how'd you manage to get WEST of Mt. Taranaki, going up??
Ah, OK... B-)

I must admit they did a fine job on the water. It animates beautifully too.

That's Tongariro BTW :lol: :lol: :lol:
