Around the world [Outerra #3]

[Acetone 34]

After an album of my Talkeetna scene and a more random one, I've selected some new pictures in my screenshot folder B)

 

1 -Alaska Scenery - Talkeetna. Rivers are not yet supported so a trick was used here : a gigantic water mesh created by user KW71

 

2 - Airbus A380-800 above fjords, Sweden

 

3 - Two Migs, Chapala Lake, Mexico (water mesh by KW71)

 

4 - Ilyushin Il-14P by Levi, above Talkeetna airfield (again, same water mesh for the river).

 

5 - Schleicher ASK-13, north of LFNA airport (Gap-Tallard), Alps.

 

6 - A fictionnal airfield in the Himalaya

 

7 - Mig, close to the Swiss Alps (I think)

 

8 - Ilyushin Il-14P, exact same spot as the first picture. As you can see, some work can be done in tree cleaning/ water elevation

 

9 - Predator drone, somewhere in North America

 

10 - Schleicher ASK-13 glider, cockpit view, near LFNA (terrain reflecting).

 

11 - Ilyushin Il-14P, somewhere at sunset

 

12 - Love that one, gives a real cloudy feeling, even if they are not here yet. Fog among the mountains, North America.

 

Hope you have enjoyed the trip

Wonderful shots...Looking Amazing!

Amazing!

Wow, number 9 was one of the most realistic screen shots I have ever seen from a desktop simulation. That haze between the mountains looks so smooth.

[sascha 314]

Yep, #9 is as real as it gets!

Wow Outerra is really going places. Can't believe that A380!

I picked this up last summer too and downloaded that converted  A380  it looks great for a bush pilot. Hard to say how it will perform in a cityscape at a big airport like LAX though - Then throw all the airbus MFD's and systems etc. into the mix.

Great shots, #10 is my favorite.

[Walter Almaraz 21]

OMG that shots are amazing! I love the second pic

Thanks everybody!

Yep, but you have to take account that most of the buildings used on the Talkeetna scene are not flight-sim friendly (with the only exception of those converted by Levi from the World2Xplane library, wich are really simple). Most of them have a very high polycount and detailed textures.
I've run a quick test to give you a precise object polycount but I'm limited beause the built-in tool for object performance in outerra stop displaying global stats (if there are too many objects listed the info is pulled off the screen, I hope they will fix it at some point).
 

 
On this screenshot, only 25-35% of the objects are loaded (Outerra only display them if they are more than 1 pixel wide). I'm 3.3 miles away from the center of Talkeetna and there are already 144956 faces in view for objects only (terrain and trees not included).

 

However, I agree with you, it's hard to get an idea of how it perform in a real urban environnement. I'm planning to do Anchorage when Levi finishies to import the whole World2Xplane library :smile:

Awesome.

Certainly impressive!

Amazing, shots #6 & 8 are really incredible.

Oh, by the way :

My several thousand dollars of payware scenery are going to all be worthless!!!

 

Very nice!
