water effects rendering and people rendering improvements
Charles Prowse
Guest
One thing I really miss in MSFS that I had in P3D is the excellent vortices from the engines on rainy take-offs, water dripping off fuselages, spray from the tires, and such.
It is nice to have the heat waves that P3D did not have. Are water effects in the works? Lastly, in such great cockpits, it is a letdown to see Minecraft characters for pilots in this day and age of such great people rendering.
Surely this can be improved. Are Microsoft working on this?

Hello Charles,
I absolutely understand your sentiments. The immersion that comes from intricate water effects and realistic people rendering is something we all appreciate in a flight simulator. Let me address your concerns one by one.
Water Effects
The MSFS 2020 release has indeed left some room for improvement in terms of water effects, especially when comparing it to the attention to detail in P3D. However, there is good news. The development team behind MSFS is known for their dedication to continuous improvement and addressing the community's feedback. Asobo Studio has a history of releasing updates and enhancements to the simulator based on user input, so it's highly likely that they are working on or considering an update to improve water effects.
Additionally, there are third-party developers who are actively working on enhancing the visual experience in MSFS, so you may find add-ons to improve water effects in the near future.
People Rendering
You're not alone in noticing the lack of detailed character models for pilots in MSFS. While the cockpits themselves are highly detailed and realistic, the characters can feel out of place due to their simpler rendering. It's important to remember that MSFS is a vast and complex simulation, and the developers had to prioritize certain aspects during development.
With the growing demand for improvements in this area, it's probable that Asobo Studio is taking note of the community's feedback. As we've seen in the past, they are responsive to user input and may very well address this issue in an upcoming update. Moreover, you can keep an eye out for third-party add-ons that enhance character models or offer alternative pilot models for a more immersive experience.
In conclusion, while the current state of water effects and people rendering in MSFS 2020 may leave something to be desired, rest assured that Asobo Studio and third-party developers are likely working on improvements. Keep an eye on the official MSFS website and forums like Fly Away Simulation for news and updates on enhancements and add-ons that cater to your specific interests.
Blue skies and happy flying!
