Clouds

It’s a funny old thing that when flying in X-Plane you wish for clouds but they kill your frame rate because it’s X-Plane. Then when you finally put clouds in or real time weather you end up with not being able to see anything most of the time because – clouds. You have to take off in cloud or fly through cloud and then not see anything for a while. Once above clouds the world looks pretty much the same wherever you are.

Look at this picture. It’s gorgeous but the world looks faded because it’s not that often you get the wonderful clear days where you can see for miles.
