My Time to Share Some 4.9.3

[JohnMAXX]

We are seeing some great feedback in regards to the latest 4.9.3 release, I want to thank everyone and we are very happy you are enjoying it!  Also how about that Vulkan? Sliders can be pushed forward finally and users can see what SMP can really do!

We're done yet, one thing I think needs attention are the Cumulonimbus and Thunderheads, unlike the majority of SMP, which uses an algorithm to place clouds, Cumulonimbus and the Thunderheads use individual 3d models.  Im in the process of working those as we speak. Some of the new "Thermal Development" is in these shots.......

Awesome shots... do you think it's save to increase cloud coverage distance now? I still have it on 10.000...

BTW: May I share those screens in some german forums?

John these are superb shots. I have to say the latest update is amazing.. Did 2 flights yesterday using it with RWC and FSGRW.. Toliss us over ORBX scenery.. Clouds though not many were amazing and performance was spot on.. Thanks..

I finally increased the cloud coverage radius (about 30.000) but this ended up in frequent and regular microstuttering while my general FPS where still the same as before (60 FPS with Vsync). Those stutters immediately vanished after I moved the slider back to 10.000 and averything was smooth again.
