I used to be able to set larger waves when I was near the Ocean, and I’m pretty sure that I was still able to go back to real weather after setting it and it would work. Not sure which version that changed but it was nice as X-plane doesn’t know the diff between Ocean and lake, so if you could somehow have the option of manual wave height again it would be nice….. The ocean never looks right with tiny waves 😉 or even better have X-plane just know whats ocean…. (also a new ocean shader would be nice haha)

There will -not- be any additional changes to the fog or lighting code in 1050 beyond what we have already done in 1040.

Do you plan to have it included in the XP 10 run ?

By the way, I read about the next improvements you showed at FlightSimCon for XP (I bet v.11), physically based rendering, new interface, new sound engine… That’s exciting ! Great work !

Cheers.
David.

Thanks Ben, sounds like good news nevertheless.

Austin had indicated that it would be an easy add for 10.50.

We do plan to expand to VFR ops, but this will not happen soon – it is a major new feature.

WED will have a public beta too.
