• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

P3D v5 Weird Reflections on default Jetways - only during Daytime

While experimenting i just stumbled across a weird phenomenon - the default jetways are incredible shiny - and i wonder why that is ?
This only happens during daytime, during the night i think it looks fine, but switching to daytime makes part of the jetways look horrible in my opinion.

Has anyone experienced that - is it maybe a graphic setting in my Sim that's not correct ?
I mean, this doesn't look right, does it ?

EDIT: Just checking another airport, Atlanta - same story.
But, it depends on the angle i look at the jetway, if i go up a little bit textures seem fine and stop beeing so reflective.

Cheers

Even the default aircraft looks way too shiny - as does the ground - looks like ice, or like a mirror.
I've never experienced this before as i don't normally use default aircraft/scenery -ä but that doesn't look right.

It seems that this has to do with the "Dynamic Reflection" Setting within P3D - i had them turned off for whatever reason, as soon as i turned them on the reflections stopped looking so weird.
