MSFS 2024 Day 2
Posted: Thu Nov 21, 2024 11:23 amEverything's behaving a lot better today, although as with 2020 photogrammetry suffers a lot when the bandwidth isn't great.
Had what was probably the most realistic flying experience around Auckland, talk about feeling like you are there. Hard to show in screenshots, but my normal video recorder doesn't recognise 2024 for some reason.
Took off at Ardmore (default airports can be very bland, I have yet to install Ron's Ardmore), flew around the city, landed at Reeve on Waiheke. Amazing experience shutting the engine down at Waiheke, with the flowery meadow and insects buzzing. Very peaceful. Went for an explore, and found a little bay-side batch, nothing like a kiwi batch but the shorefront is amazingly detailed. Not a single stutter the whole flight.
I then dropped in on Hobbiton, this wasn't perfect as it relies a lot on photogrammetry, but given that this is default (World Update) scenery, we've come a long way.
These shots are all just the basic sim, nothing added.
