-New renderer that actually looks like something from this century while support VR. Good and realistic lighting, proper height maps (sharp mountain peaks and ridges) crisp and sharp textures, ground decals, volumetric clouds, plenty of forests and buildings, huge draw distance, scalable spotting, updated plane models (Doesn’t have to be UE5 good looking but a heck lot better) ** highest prio
You are probably confusing us with M$ or that other sim which keep delivering unfinished alpha versions while the game itself stays unfinished and actually sandbox, forever (Yes forever, you read correctly).
BMS will do the graphical jump but don’t expect it to be a-la M$FS. We aren’t there and even if assuming we can get close, it’ll take time (i.e years, so things will improve but not as fast as you think). We don’t have teams of Devs to develop every small graphical feature. What we can offer though is a graphical improvement that will come on top of an already working sim.
Regarding the 3D models: On what models are you talking really?

Really I need to know, because our 3D modelers are doing awesome work and you should show some respect for getting all that, for free…
I’d be willing to chip in on the dev costs through Patreon.
Ha no - We don’t take money, and for sure we don’t work for anyone. This is a hobby for us and we do it for the fun and challenge.
Hello I-Hawk
Glad you read my comments!
I’m very happy with BMS except the graphics and some quality of life things, like key mapping woes and some minor immersion things. I know you are not Asobo or ED. But still, modern graphics an UI should be highest prio for sure. BMS is so far ahead on everything, except graphics. It should be the 100% focus for 4.37.
The ground textures with the satellite map looks very dated, buildings need to be all 3d! Forests are not dense enough, the grey wall (view distance), poor height map… If you improve on this, the sim would truly come alive!
When it comes to models, I agree that they look great but in-game everything is bland, perhaps it’s due to the overall engine limitations (lacking proper lighting, shadows etc?)
This comment " (Doesn’t have to be UE5 good looking but a heck lot better)" does not relate to the models, it’s the overall graphics look.
BMS need to get a modern graphics engine and UI… everything else is really good! Please don’t forget VR, and don’t be afraid of increasing the performance impact, it’s 2022.
The sonic boom effect is in need of update too!
