== Ballistic high altitude flight and rendering == | |||
Flightgear is able to render the scene for the ballistic high altitude flight the X-15 is capable of (at least on a modern graphics card), but it needs some special adjustments to do so. Assume the visibility at arc top should be 500 km: | |||
* from the menu, LOD bare range needs to be set to 500000.0 | |||
* in the property browser, /sim/rendering/camera-group/zfar needs to be set to 500000.0 | |||
* in the weather menu, configure visibility at high altitude to 500000.0 m | |||
* use the Atmospheric Light Scattering framework to get the correct visuals of being outside the atmosphere in the rendering menu | |||
