Try textures original

As for ground colours I really love this debate by a bunch of people who sit in front of monitors all day looking at simulated terrain telling everyone what the ground/sea should look like...

There is a myriad of colours, lighting and wind that effect the over all view of ground and sea... The colours and waves can look totally different from day to day especailly in Northern France and the UK... The UK has very changable weather... It might be raining for 2 hours then bright sunshine for 20 mins then hailing. Sunny then a thunder storm and back to Sunny all in one afternoon. Its not like some other countries where you have 3 weeks of sun or 5 days of rain... 3 weeks of cold winter breeze... Its not like that at all! Its totally changable... within hours!

I should know I live there! Some days the colours are dull other days they are bright and vibrant! Its a mix!

I really don't understand how it can look so bad on some screen shots presented in this thread... This is how it looks for me at the default free flight in the hurricane with "high" settings (not original texture size!)... Works for me at least... And in the evening or morning down low it kicks every other sim so bad...



I mean, looking at the shots in your post here Veltro http://forum.1cpublishing.eu/showpos...0&postcount=22 with 24 fps I start wondering what hardware you are running - is it maybe Directx 9? Dx9 looks crap on my computer too!

OK, I now tried to take a shot at exactly the same spot as you...

First Veltros image from page 3 in this thread... (at 24fps)



And then mine (at 60 fps) - running "Very high" settings for this (and original texture size as that was the setting you are using?)



If yours is at high settings with original texture size in Dx10 I do understand you are irritated! But there must be some driver problem or so? Or ATI related? Does it look like your shot for all ATI users I understand that half of the crowd thinks that CloD looks awful

EDIT: An no, I have not edited the image in any way - straight out of fraps (just resaved it as a jpeg instead of bmp at the same resolution etc)
