This is by far one of the best sceneries for China and by this developer. Great attention to detail, amazing spot, smooth as silk for flying.Lightning and ambience is great. It worth every cent.
Totally agree with "ZI" perfect PBR effects - very seldom this ACTUALLY turns out to a success based on the the present P3Dv4 conditions! Textures and everything seems to be perfectly dedicated to P3Dv4 (leaving any old fs2000 textures, or even further behind outdated textures far behind) - which means that textures and framerates are definitely perfect!
As a night flyer I just could wish for more dedication to setting up light poles properly with realistic light beams from the poles.
