Default Question: clouds visibility range. How can I increase it?

Hello all.

Few patches ago my clouds were visible at a much longer range. I don't know if i did something wrong, or some patch changed that, but now i can't see clounds over a few kilomters distance. I would like to experiment with the "local weather" in FMB and I can't see the clouds too far anymore. only like 3-4 kilometers from my plane and it looks silly this way. I'm trying to get some nice clouds over a larger area, and they are only visible over my head like a frigging umbrela.

Anyone knows how i can get them visible further away from me? It may be some graphic setting i messed up.
Thank you.

Thank you for bringing this back to the general forum.

I think they brought back some of those cool 2d clouds we saw in earlier shots and I try to find out why i can't see clouds at more than 3-4 km distance.

Here's a screenshot with the limited cloud draw distance:

This are the cool clouds i was talking about:

If it wasn't for that overdone HDR or bloom effect the use in this beta, this shots could have been epic.
