does anyone know what the grass file is called? I spent a fair while getting through grass textures but failed to find anything like this to edit to amore subtle shade :think:

Its a bit too green!

Humm that looks like an addon scenery to me, try looking in the texture folder for the addon, perhaps something in there will stick out! :smile:

I only say this because I recently changed the grass colour of a Dublin airport scenery grass texture with another from avsim.

The sky's wrong as well.....perhaps there are incorrect display settings somewhere.

Basically the whole lot there is wrong..too saturated?

hmm, the airport boundary grass is this colour all over the i presume and i also noticed at LFRD, it's default 'spring' texture i guess. The sky is from REPro - i quite like it even if it isn't realistic, but the grass just stands out so much from the rest of the terrain.

The saturation is increased by the texture map i use - thus why any snow shots i have are really bright white (though from my experience, that is actually true i suppose...) but of course that would mean the rest of the scenery would be bright green...frustrating, i really can't fnd it!

LFRD (note it pokes out from the photoscenery):

edit: also the same at default gloucester and shobdon because i've just taken a peek.
