That doesn't have anything to do with the airport, and instead it's a problem of your video card settings. You are not using Anisotropic filtering, and your image quality is very bad, even OUTSIDE the airport.

Enable Antisotropic filtering at 16x, using the Video card Control Panel options.

domjscott:
Will give it a go. Thanks.

domjscott:
What you suggested did, in fact help somewhat, however the ground textures still look like a low res photo... Surely, it isn't supposed to look like this? When I look at the photos of the airport advertised by FSDT, I can see a world of difference.

You are confusing two issues:

- The low resolution runway when seen at a very slant angle, was caused by the lack of Anisotropic filtering, and I'm sure this is now fixed, if you enabled it correctly.

- The low resolution of the textures when seen top-down, which is caused by not having enabled 4K textures.

If you are *sure* you have both Anisotropic filtering AND 4K textures enabled, then that's how the scenery has been made, and it's not possible you would see any difference compared to the screenshot posted on our site.

Also, I see artifacts, which are caused by having set a Mesh resolution too high, which is totally useless, since there aren't any mesh available with a real resolution higher than 5 meters/pixel, so it's useless and a waste of memory to set it any higher in the sim AND it will cause such artifacts.

domjscott:
Yeah, I have definitely enabled Anisotropic Filtering in my video card control panel, and this has actually fixed the blurriness with most of my other payware addon airports, for which I thank you. I will see if 4K textures are enabled, but will, otherwise leave it at that.
