Hi All:

Below are some examples of my latest trick

I have been playing around with co-efficient algorithms inside the FSX engine, and I am coming upon some stunning results... see for yourselves!!


Happy drooling.

I have no idea what default looks like as I don't use FSX but that looks awesome !

looks like an explosion  

[timest]

I am still experimenting with the algorithm.. but so far it is working even in pure daylight, not just at dawn or dusk... and gives the sun a more realistic look... I am pretty excited about this as it has been on my mind for quite some time. If all goes well I might be able to manage how much diffuse and specular follow.

Remember Pierre... this is the first successful test I will have much more to do but so far so good.

This is exactly why the FS community is better than any other gaming one.

[Captain-Amar]

idk     sun looks a little big...

[The Boss.]

Looks awesome, timest.

[rsvette1234]

My only concern Tim is its to big the effect is awesome but needs to be half the size shown on those very bright shots, just a thought Tim, but great work as usual.

Regards, Rich

[Tako]

What are your machine specs?

Beautiful!

[UltimatePilotAce]

Like others said, it looks like a giant explosion.  Still cool effects nonetheless.

[Tepp]

Wow, that looks like it has some wonderful potential -- very beautiful!! Like others, it does seem a bit large -- but I know that we are not looking at the final result.

Thanks for keeping us up to date with the screens you've been posting, Tim! I can't wait for the final result!!!
