SKYMAXX PRO FPS UPDATE
SKYMAXX PRO FPS CODE

Turbulence model adjusted to accurately model disturbances inside clouds. Turbulence model adjusted to accurately model disturbances for high lifting index areas. Turbulence slider now controls the average amount of flow disturbance.ДЄLOFT data format has been changed, sampling rate increased, vorticity data added. Turbulence model adjusted to have less evenly distributed areas of the same air velocity. Wind distribution has been changed to improve ATC reliability. Submitted for evaluation to determine if this density is sufficient. Affecting wind speeds at all levels.ДЄLOFT data density has been increased. Maximum wind speed slider with range 0-100%. Wind model has been adjusted to have more accurate behaviour. Turbulence has been checked for few known areas and ratios adjusted to some realistic levels. Maximum turbulence slider value has been increased up to 200%. Turbulence shall be yet again evaluated by subjective match using real line crew feedback immediately off the flight if possible. Haze blending for clouds has been adjusted. Sector drawing logic changed to remove grid lines. High and medium altitude clouds based on forecast data. Scattering and illumination model adjusted. Two stage drawing pass implemented for better performance.ДЇilter pass implemented for better performance and appearance. Noise mixing law for cumulonimbus clouds.Д¬overage procedures adjusted to match new cloud laws.Д«etter sector mixing to reduce squared appearance.Д®arly discard pass implemented for better performance. Reflections range slider has been removed. Will start with simplified algorythms and move towards excessive abuse of the GPU. Implementation of the volume rendering with raymarching. Realistic night perspective checkbox added. Realistic aerial perspective checkbox added. Light phase displacement coefficients revised for solid particles and pollution. Light phase displacement coefficients revised for water droplets and aerosols. Heavy and slow atmosphere perspective model replaced with simple and fast calculations. Illumination and shadows adjusted for low level sun angles. Low level haze scattering calculation allows variable particle size.ДЄtmosphere and haze constants adjusted to better match reported conditions. Scenery albedo now dynamically adjusted for a better environment representation. The entire scene lighting is now calculated dynamically for the key points. This may slightly affect visual quality and will make atmosphere rendering procedures more complicated but will improve atmosphere performance by 80-90% in clear sky conditions.Д¬alculations for scattering, perspective and optical depth have been separated. Volume atmosphere rendering is very resource demanding therefore requires architecture change in order to improve performance and anti-aliasing.

SKYMAXX PRO FPS UPDATE

This section contains all the items that will be addressed during next update

SKYMAXX PRO FPS CODE

This is scheduled to be revised and further refined during the next server code upgrade. Temporary, instead of discarding these layers our servers try to combine them onto a single layer of uneven base. As of now such conditions force the local air parcels to shrink to a size when no visible moisture can be produced due to the short vertical travel distance for condensation particles and therefore insufficient gradients calculated. Example can be FEW007 SCT008 BKN009 reported. We are changing the way ењЋnviro servers handle the weather conditions when several cloud layers develop in a relatively small volume. This will be further refined in the future versions.

In some situations visual artifacts may appear at the edges of clouds including dots, lines, random cutouts. consider disabling Volumetric Lights Effect in ењЋnviro settings. Unfortunately ењЋnviro light blending is not fully compatible with default X-Plane rendering pipeline therefore some artifacts may appear at night. Some server parameters still require further tuning and this issue will be reduced as we continue with the server updates.Дefault X-Plane night triggers lights artifacts Snow data is calculated and accumulated on the server over time. Snow coverage may appear in the regions where no snowfall encountered recently This will be fixed during future development. These items are of the top priority but may not be resolved in the next update This section contains all the known issues for the completed features All the items listed in the roadmap are sorted by priorityД¬lick on the icon to see all the actions performed during the item development
