FS20 FIMP - island aerial image?

Post by JonnyT »

Hi there,
in the older versions we had a separate folder for the ortho, or at least there was a very obvious .cgl file that could be removed to revert to default/google map ground imagery. Where has this gone in version 1.5?


cheers

In order to make the scenery compatible with X Box and remove the white images when approaching the island, we changed the aerial imagery from CGL to projected mesh. You cannot remove it. I wouldn't suggest to do it anyway, as overall it's better than the default Bing imagery.

Alright but its not better than the updated bing maps imagery you can find using the map replacement tool..
In that case do you have a link to V1.4? Or a version that only updates the airport and not the island

Dude.. I don't know what planet you are on.
It does not look better than the default ground textures. And it's not even a matter of taste - it's a FACT.

Please give us the option to use only the airport and custom buildings, and remove the ortho/ground textures.
That would be worth the price alone, that we payed for this product.
As long as I am forced to use this horrible low res neon-green stuff - I can not justify keeping this product in my community folder, and therefore not justify the purchase.
