February 3, 201214 yr nice shots but you should stop increasing the picture contrast too much RoyalSkies.CO.UK Youtube Vidz !My website will be back soon with new paints and videos!

February 4, 201214 yr Moderator nice shots but you should stop increasing the picture contrast too muchI agree.The OP would also be a good candidate for a cloud and sky texture replacement to make it look a bit more realistic. Maybe FEX, REX, or Pablos freeware textures would be a good fit. Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
February 4, 201214 yr Aharon, whose DC-10 is that from? Looks good and what do you use to record such shots? Edited February 4, 201214 yr by vc10man Rick Almeida
February 4, 201214 yr Author Thanks all for kind words. I am experimenting with editing softwares!!! Jim, FEX, REX, or Pablos freeware textures will not run well in my laptop. Aharon, whose DC-10 is that from? Looks good and what do you use to record such shots?VC10man, It depends what you mean by your questions. If you are referring to model, it is good old fashioned SGA DC10-30. If you are referring to the livery, it is by legendary livery painter Frank Idone. I wish Frank has not retired from painting as I need three more liveries for SGA DC10-30: Icelandiar, Finnair, and United States Air Force. I have 10 or 15 liveries by Frank Idone on SGA DC10-30 and his engine paint is amazing!!!As for recording screenshots. Not sure what you mean. I think you mean how to take screenshots. I use FSX default replays to capture screenshots using PRT-SCN button, then paste on MS Paint and save them under JPEG. This is for landings only. For taxiing and flying, I use same thing except I do not use replays. I use live action to capture screenshots. Then use any editing software (my favorite is PaintShop Photo Pro X4 Ultimate software) to sharpen and edit any screenshots. Then publish to photobucket. Is that what you are asking?Aharon Edited February 4, 201214 yr by Aharon

Now I know it's your PSP X4 that does all that fantastic output. What baffled me was how you captured the very short intervals between showing the landing gear coming down and the sequences to touch-down. Now, thanks to you, I know how it was done.Re:SGA, yes, I had their DC-10s in FS9. Think I'd a Canadian repaint, (not Canadian like Air Canada).Did not know if they did the DC-10 for FSX. as the only one I've seen is another developers, which is not as deep systems-wise.Look forward to some more of your output.

If you want to do replays of landings, IMPORTANT ADVICE: make sure you log off from Vatsim first OR otherwise Vatsim controllers will be frightened to find your plane in middle of replay approaching same runway that the other plane has authorization to approach and land.Regards,Aharon

Don't have any form of ATC other than the default. Will the FS9 SGA DC-10 work without any issues in FSX? Rick Almeida
