Cut the viz to around 30-40 miles and see if that helps...

It looks great once it loads but its just the loading btw I tried doing the visability thing and it didnt really work. Oh well.

I have VFR Scenery and it works fine on my PC, to increase the quality you need to have antialiasing on and set mip mapping to a high level.  What spec PC do you have?  Also in order to enjoy it it really is a good idea to go in a cessna or other GA, for me i usually use the Mooney Bravo.  Really to speed it up you need a good graphics card and over 512 MB RAM

How high were you?  Ahem..... let's rephrase that a bit....... how high off the GROUND were you?  

A lot of the photographic stuff liooks worse than the default under about 1000 feet AGL....... and it gets really good well above 2000.

Might your experience be from the low levels?

Turn Mip Map settings to full, fly slower that 120kts, turn max texture size to the max..

LOL now were back to the loading problem again. It looks rly good it just takes a few years to load. it kind of puts you off flying over the UK.

I now use the fscene textures with a half decent freeware mesh under it. Love it too bits

John,
I've got the asia fscene and I love it, must get the FSGenesis mesh. Must stop better half looking at credit card bills.....tooo much payware......must resist

I agree completely on the Asia thing relative to FScene.  The default M$ stuff llooks like "USA East".  The FScene textures are far, far, FAR better for Japan.......... where I have spent a bunch of time.

Can't say about anywhere else...... don't have them installed.  Too expensive to install them everywhere  . 

I have the FSGenesis Landclass for the USA... and that makes a huge difference in the US too without changing the texture files....particularly when combined with the FSGenesis roads package.

They just don't have enough golf courses in the Tokyo and Kyoto areas though .  It is amazing how many of them there are....... considerring what it costs to play golf in Japan ...and considering the land values.  Although on one of the STARS for Tokyo.... they DO have some of the close in golf courses in exactly the right places  .

The other thing I want to "solve" for Japan is somehow replacing the autogen buildings there.  (Any hints of that one?)  They too are god awful.  While Japan is rapidly chasing Western values and losing a lot of it's identity........ there are still a lot of visual archetectural elements that DON'T look like "USA East".  Yet  .  And in the countryside... there are still a lot of traditional buildings.  And SCADS of Shinto and Buddhist temples.
