Asobo has created their own flight model engine, allowing thousands of surfaces and 3D forces and moments to be fully simulated.įlight Simulator will populate roads with vehicles, water will flow realistically based on wind direction, grass will have individual grass blades and trees will have individual leaves, creating the illusion of a living world. Individual clouds will have their own behaviors and they will impact aircraft performance depending on its location within the system. An example used at E3 2019 was that if it was raining somewhere in real life, it would be raining in-game. There will also be realistic physics and weather systems, and utilization of real-world weather data. This allows the simulator to depict most parts of the world in 3D photo-realism, and other parts in high definition. Azure AI analyzes map data and photogrammetry to generate photorealistic 3D models of buildings, trees, terrain, and so on.
