Hi there!

I hope you like them:

... i wish i could, but i sadly can't view these certainly great shots ...

Not sure, but can it be that they are not linked correctly or am i the only one having this issue?

Enjoy flying and happy landings.

Oh, sorry!

Somehow, the links don't work anymore.

If I find the time, I'll repost them later once more.

These pics looks great :) What scenery are you using for the textures and autogen?

 

 

It's OSM scenery (simheaven), a European library for adding better, more realistic autogen, highway signs, etc., HD mesh v2 (alpilotx), Treelines and Farms v2 (alpilotx), all being freeware.

Additionally, I use UrbanMAXX 3D for improving the look of the urban areas, SkyMAXX Pro (in some of the shots) and MaxxFX to give it a more natural and realistic look (but that may be only my personal taste)

Oh, and you can see the pics?

Did this for you :)

 

Great shots!

OP, are you using Real Terra Haze? If so could you show us a screen grab of your settings?

Thanks a lot for your help with the non working links!

I don't use real terra haze.

I either tweak the art controls manually with the dataref editor, or I let EFASS do the work. Its UltraWX weather injector changes the typical art controls on the fly, depending on the weather situation, etc.

Great shots.

Thanks a lot guys! ;-)

Very impressive! X-Plane is really in a league of it's own these days.

 

Matt

so true

Yes it's in a league of its own, I was never actually complaining about X plane 10 and still use it everyday, but now i am tired at looking at that stupid AI. 

Ryzen 5 1600x - 16GB DDR4 - RTX 3050 8GB - MSI Gaming Plus

I view the lack of AI as a worthwhile sacrifice for the sake of a better overall simulation, I just use Overlay Editor to park statics at the fields I fly to/from. I always found it annoying to have to wait in a line of AI for a runway slot in FSX/P3d but each to their own I suppose. I see the lack of AI as allowing for other more useful effects. As for the other regular complaint from users or those who won't use because of its lack, I just use http://www.liveatc.net/ in the background to provide a real ATC soundtrack to the flight which I find much more convincing than any of the ATC products I've ever had the misfortune to purchase. There's nothing like listening to real pilots communicate with real controllers around the fields used in your flight, very convincing. When looked at form a wider perspective I think that overall, XP just has more to offer the simmer who goes further than just downloading the demo which, let's face it, doesn't show how well XP can look and perform with a few simple, cheap or free addons tacked on to it. It certainly applies though that you need to purchase good addon aircraft to get the proper effect in all its glory but that applies to all flight sims.
