AFS Design - World & Mosaic v4 for FSX Steam

New in World & Mosaic v4:

• Three-phase textures technology:


• Near phase = mosaic textures


• middle phase = aerial photo textures


• Wide phase = horizon textures


• New ultra-sharp mosaic textures for city, village, forest, rock, desert and field with AME System


• AME = Anti mosaic effect by targeted modification of MipMaps with the 3-phase technology


• Night and winter textures also with AME and photorealistic MipMaps

Through the anti mosaic effect (short AME) the textures appear no longer mosaic shaped, despite maximum texture sharpness. This is achieved by changing the structure of the lower MipMaps with transparent sharp textures.


The "World & Mosaic " scenery contains an all included package of new global textures with a new mosaic technique. The normal resolution is 4.7 m per pixel. With the application of pixel-perfect mosaic series, the resolution is doubled. For example, all roads / paths / buildings calculated and set exactly to the width of 4.7 m. The result is a dense photo texture with a very high sharpness.


The sharpness is supported by accurate placement of autogenous buildings and trees with the help of the program SDK Annotator from Microsoft. Perfect fit the maximum possible 300 buildings and 600 trees per texture are set. The arrangement is very dense and varied. All types of buildings , such as tall buildings , townhouses , factories , gas stations, churches, etc. are arranged exactly.


For remote display, all textures are provided with specially designed mipmaps. They slide neatly over the horizon. MipMaps is an antialiasing technique for textures. It contributes significantly to the improvement of image quality and speed. Especially on slower PC systems is to feel the better speed (frame rate).


Improvements in FSX:

• More beautiful mountain ranges and mountain landscapes


• More varied forests


• Much higher frame rate by smaller bitmap textures

New World textures in mosaic form:

• Towns, villages and field textures


• Roads and paths in mosaic
