More beta screenshots. (b09) I'll repeat something here I answered someone in a post on facebook: Default clouds look very nice at times and is very far from what XP usually had. I am not afraid to say that there are good alternatives available which work very well. Under certain conditions they are glorious but worse and immersjon breaking during other. xEnviro is no different. This is just a very hard aspect of flightsim to get right. As we see it you can not get the weather to look right in all conditions with 2d billboard tech. That's why xE is moving to volumetric this time around. 1.10 will not beat other weather depiction engines in all condidtions yet. And you will have trade offs because Volumetrics has its limitations. But that is almost purely preformance related and not a limitation in the tech itself. So over time it will grow to become more and more complete. As for progress on the beta run: The last week has been filled with real life work or family related items for many of us. We all feel the presense of January, the monday month. But still there has been a lot of progress. b01-b09 went fast and had some significant improvements both in visuals, bug squishing and performance.
