Q400 Update PILOT/PRO Editions

Featured Replies

You should already have cockpit shadows.

I hope I've got this right ,I am talking about the sunlight reflecting giving off shadows inside the cockpit , similar to the fsx default air crafts in dx10 mode.If it's true I must not have set correctly. Have seen a demo of Q400 on p3d v2.0 with cockpit shadows and it looks stunning and realistic.

My apologies, I am mistaken. (Inserts foot in mouth) In FSX there are no shadows, I was referring to the reflections on the displays, which are not really shadows. :Doh: I have been spending most of my time in P3Dv2, and you are correct, the shadows are astounding.

Regards, Craig.

 

Again, I'm very sorry for the misleading info.

Hey thanks for the reply craig, much appreciated. Fsx has cockpit shadows in dx10 mode in which I have mine setup to. And I would say it probably is not as good as dx11. Unfortunately not too many third party aircrafts display that feature except the pmdg JS4100.

There is a guy name frooglepete on utube , giving his first impression on the majestic dash8 and he mentioned the cockpit shadows in pilot edition will not be featured ,only in the pro edition and I just want to be sure if he has gotten that right.

My fsx is running beautifully and I don't want to move to another platform just yet and also have xplane10 and dcs ,so no short of platforms.( I must say the cockpit shadows in dcs fc3 in dx9 is incredible ).It is definitely a must have feature and I hope it comes out in the pro edition. Thanks again Craig.
