FSEnhancer V0.6.5 Details Revealed

A peek at an upcoming update to FSEnhancer has been revealed on the developer's Facebook page, with a changelog and roadmap attached for completion.

Made by Enrico del Bono, the addon changes various properties in X-Plane to enhance the visuals a user will experience, such as the atmosphere, clouds, and cockpits.

V0.6.5 introduces a new version (V2) of PBR textures for the Cessna 172SP, alongside:

  • DataRef Enhanced HDR color palette. ReShade is no longer needed for contrast and vibrance.
  • Reworked in-clouds system
  • Rewritten Atmosphere scattering system. The [new] rendition is based on real aerial photographs and satellite imagery
  • Reworked clouds shadows
  • Improved performance and overall stability
  • Improved V11.40+ and 11.50 compatibility
  • TrueShade discontinued
  • TrueWaves discontinued
  • Brand new PBR Cockpit for Default Cessna C172SP introduced (It will feature the real life gray-ish panel)

But there is still work to be done before the update is released, shown in the roadmap below:

  • Introduce Towering Cumulus formations
  • Intoduce new kinds of cumuliformes clouds and different clouds shapes into the current environment
  • Rework broken clouds textures
  • Build totally new cirrus clouds textures
  • Build long distance and horizon clouds textures
  • Build new sun textures
  • Improve Night Environment (new photorealistic light textures)

When the update is released, it was said it will be available through the FSEnhancer website.
