    We shouldn’t have to say that at this point, my initial reply already conveyed that information.

    You sorta glossed over the part where I described how and why your reply was nonsense.

      My first reply said it was streaming high-res data from the cloud. Considering it’s a flight simulator advertising to cover the entire world, most people would intuit that would include textures and 3d models.

      I’m not going to sit here and argue with you, have a nice day.

        My first reply said it was streaming high-res data from the cloud.

        Your first reply also stated that it needed 180mbps to stream weather data.

        Considering it’s a flight simulator advertising to cover the entire world, most people would intuit that would include textures and 3d models.

        You can fit the entire world’s texture and 3d models on a super small file. The file size is entirely dependent on the level of detail of those textures and models. Hence the MS Paint analogy.

        I appreciate you not arguing anymore, at least you know when to quit.

          Alright, one more:

          Your first reply also stated that it needed 180mbps to stream weather data.

          This was not me. Maybe check usernames next time?

          And your point about fitting the entire world’s albedo, normal, roughness, specular, height, etc etc textures as well as high-fidelity 3D models is laughably false. OBVIOUSLY it’s going to be highly detailed, you are literally the only person confused about this.

            Alright, one more:

            I take it back, you don’t know when to quit.

            This was not me.

            Then I have no idea what reply you were referring to. Your first reply to me was a snarky one about digital representation of the Earth. Maybe check usernames next time.

            And your point about fitting the entire world’s albedo, normal, roughness, specular, height, etc etc textures as well as high-fidelity 3D models is laughably false.

            It would be, had I made such a comment. But I didn’t. You just pulled that out of your ass. I made a comment about storing “The Earth” on your local machine.

            you are literally the only person confused about this.

            Confused because people like you are making me that way.
