Grass in v1.9

Post by AndyM » Wed Dec 25, 2024 4:37 am

Still using MSFS 2020 and I've upgraded to v1.9, I can't remember if it was like this in the previous version but some of the grass looks bright green, doesn't look right.

Yep, that's normal now. The grass color is driven by the Bing aerial which is from Fall/Autumn.
On the positive side, it saves some VRAM.

Thanks for the reply, the bright green grass just doesn't look right next to the 'normal' looking grass.

Oh, you mean 'that' bright green grass. THat was the same in previous versions.

Its not actually grass, its some sort of painted artificial surface and it is always a horrible FAA green.
KLAX uses loads of the stuff. See the image below.

Thanks, for some reason I just didn't see it before.
