Advanced Member L'Ancien Regime Posted October 5, 2019 Advanced Member Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) This guy got invited to MS headquarters in Seattle to an official presentation of its alpha, just this last September. Flight sims are getting pretty awesome these days with DCS and Lockheed PrePar3D but even taking that into consideration the stuff he reviews in MS FS 2020 is really impressive and as a wannabe computer artist, extremely humbling.

Advanced Member L'Ancien Regime Posted October 5, 2019 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted October 5, 2019 (edited) Azure AI + satellite imagery = 3D graphics of amazing realism. No need for modelers, at all. But it's not RTX at all. Edited October 5, 2019 by L'Ancien Regime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advanced Member L'Ancien Regime Posted October 6, 2019 Author Advanced Member Report Share Posted October 6, 2019 (edited) This guy gets into the technology deeper than the rest. No modeling whatsoever. "It would be impossible for us to model the entire world". But the entire world is in this sim in detailed 3D. Movement of air masses.

Carlosan Posted January 8, 2021 Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 https://80.lv/articles/flight-simulator-gameplay-vs-real-life-footage/ Check out a collection of videos by the Tropical Tech 2 YouTube channel comparing footage from Flight Simulator to real life. Can you tell the difference between the game and real-life footage? This incredible realism was achieved by using Bing maps data to generate textures and simulate the entire globe at a 1:1 scale.
