October 8, 201312 yr There are cockpit shadows with DX10 in FSX.Yes, with DX10 it looks more like Flight with DX9 it doesn't.
October 8, 201312 yr There are cockpit shadows with DX10 in FSX. in every aircraft? or depends on default/payware etc Cenk Demir Besiktas JK 1903
October 8, 201312 yr https://forums.geforce.com/default/topic/492348/geforce-drivers/questions-for-manuelg-/ According to Nvidia. The user question speculated it was DX10, I don't see where you see NVIDIA confirmed it? In fact they didn't speculate or confirm on anything, as at that time FLIGHT was unreleased. Here's the wiki on FLIGHT the system specs specify DX9C http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_Flight Flight is what I always said it was, FSX with a number of graphic improvements, and some core functionality removed (AI/ATC). As for the performance, that was an illusion. Take out AI in FSX and use a basic GA aircraft, and you can get the same or better in FSX. I have a few screenshots if you'd like to see.

October 8, 201312 yr Anyway, i don`t see any "real" major changes. The fog and shadows look like extracted from MSFlight. Besides that no big breaking news. Still looks like a FSX Service Pack...

The biggest change is that much more is going to be pushed off to the GPU, even more then FLIGHT did, including tessellation effects, which DX11 supports.

From your link; "As seen in the screenshots, the most noticeable graphical improvements are the newer shader models and the use of new DirectX versions" Okay so it's not DX10 relax take a chill pill. show me a link that says it is DX9....but even a blind man can see that Flight performs much better then FSX...an illusion :lol: :lol: :lol:
October 8, 201312 yr The biggest change is that much more is going to be pushed off to the GPU, even more then FLIGHT did, including tessellation effects, which DX11 supports. Doesn`t mean anything as long as the ground surface is still a green/brown slush. Who needs realistic shadows on squared roads or grey buildings looking like being from 20 year old nintendo game? Even the newest screenshots from the P3D developer blogs looks awful. The biggest lack of FSX/P3D is still the monotonous environment. I will come back if P3D "stock" looks at least like FSX with the best add-ons available.

October 8, 201312 yr Well, the FLIGHT screenshot looks a lot better than the FSX one...... Christopher Low AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D CPU / 64GB DDR5-6000 RAM / 12GB Nvidia RTX 4070 Super GPU / Gigabyte X870E Aorus Elite Wifi 7 / 1+2TB Samsung Evo Plus M2 Nvme UK2000 Beta Tester
October 8, 201312 yr Well, the FLIGHT screenshot looks a lot better than the FSX one...... As I said, Flight is FSX with Graphic improvements! If that was with FTXG, it may even look better than FLIGHT. Thanks Tom My Youtube Videos! http://www.youtube.com/user/tf51d
October 8, 201312 yr Flight Flight 2012-02-29 01-13-27-68.jpg FSX fsx 2012-02-29 01-29-53-84.jpg You were saying.... You better make an appointment with your optometrist. As I said, Flight is FSX with Graphic improvements! If that was with FTXG, it may even look better than FLIGHT. Nope....I run FTX Global...Flight still looks better.
October 8, 201312 yr Commercial Member Really those two look almost equally bad to me, the same view with FTX Global would definitely look just as good as Flight.
October 8, 201312 yr Screenshots don't tell the whole story. Run some video. Honestly, you guys are grasping at straws to say FSX looks as good as Flight, even with FTX Global..it doesn't.
October 8, 201312 yr That is not entirely correct. MS sold ESP (equals to FSX) to LM. Lm made P3D out of it. Which is still FSX with some enhancements. In the meantime MS developed ESP II, but didn`t finish the job. Then they made MSFlight out of it. You said it above. Stock MSFlight looks better than FSX stock. P3D stock still looks worse than MSFlight stock. I personally will not buy P3D if i have to buy Add-On`s worth several hundred $ to get it looking better than a 10 year old game... Seems like the P3D developers don`t want to release a new FlightSim (WorldSim), but just a base software that may have the abilties to make it a better FS in the future.
