There's something really bothering me in Orbiter 2016. The horizon of the Earth when you are at altitude is very bright white. Now that may be realistic from real photos I've seen, but is there a way to reduce that? I played around with all the atmosphere settings in Earth.cfg, but nothing seemed to affect this effect. Even when you zoom out to view the complete Earth in space, the white " border " is jarring to me, it makes the Earth look like it is a sticker, pasted on. I prefer the look from Orbiter 2010. Here are some pics to show the difference.

What is your anti-aliasing setting? 0 times? That's the only reason I could think of why the better looking haze is bothering you.

If I remember correctly, that's how the horizon looked like on the older version of D3D9 client. On the latest R3b release, it looks like this:

Therefore the solution is likely in installing the latest version of Jarmonik's D3D9 Client.
