And they're only for the default paints jobs.

Thanks to Daube, I downloaded the pack but it seems the modifications are far too subtle for my eyes since I don't see any change at all.
Could it be because you need a high-end graphic card (which I don't have) to see the difference ?

Re: FSX Default Aircraft Photoreal Textures
Posted: Wed May 02, 2007 4:49 amYes, same experience here, I could not really notice the difference...
I have transfered the files contained in the pack and overwritted the original files... maybe not all of the repaints are changed ?
EDIT: here is what I get after applying this texture pack:
It's not looking as sharp as in the shots from Waspiflab. My graphics in FSX are almost maxed out, only self shadows and light reflections are switched OFF.

Re: FSX Default Aircraft Photoreal Textures
Posted: Wed May 02, 2007 4:46 pmJust adding my two cents to what I said
Here are two shots I took. One before putting the pack (stock textures then) and the other after.
(Don't pay attention to the change in "lightning" beetween the shots. Slightly different meteo)
Before
After
Unfortunately, I didn't make shots of any other planes...
EDIT : Oops, I didn't see the rules about posting images. I'll resize them and put them back later.....
EDIT2 : Putting back the links only.

Re: FSX Default Aircraft Photoreal Textures
Posted: Wed May 02, 2007 7:58 pmVery nice. What is the exact definition of photoreal?
Re: FSX Default Aircraft Photoreal Textures
Posted: Fri May 04, 2007 6:28 amSo... nobody has an idea why these photoreal textures look the same than the stock ones on my installation ?
Re: FSX Default Aircraft Photoreal Textures
Posted: Fri May 04, 2007 7:24 amMaybe the modification concerns only the pixel shaders part of the textures, and you can only feel the difference with a recent video card that would take advantage of those new textures, that's the only explanation I can see so far...
