SDF during the Winter
« on: December 08, 2017, 02:37:43 am »
Did you guys include a White/Winter ground texture for this Airport?

I flew into tonight (Jan 1 2018) in the Sim with snow everywhere except on the field.

what gives?

 This is probably more due to the poor seasons by default in the sim. How many actual days of snow does Louisville experience each year? Easiest fix would be to change the month in the sim and keep on flying.

Yeah but if it starts snowing outside (real world WX) then the surrounding terrain is white and SDF is still like a weird light brown colour, it looks awful.

The scenery has Winter textures, but not Heavy Winter textures, which are the one covered in snow. We'll keep this suggestion in mind for a future upgrade.

It's very ugly right now, seriously. The whole area is covered by snow, but the airport isn't. Very poor design. Future upgarde... When? This thread is over a year old, nothing was done about it... Disappointing, to say the least. Definitely not what I expect from an FSDT product.
