First impressions,

 

very impressed...read what they did...viewed what the did...very impressed.

 

This ain't your grandfather's XPX....

 

A.I. actually works, from taxi---rotation---landing.  

 

The autogen is very life-like..and in fact, I had to scale it back from what settings I had in .45

 

So..first flight...again, most impressed with what the crew achieved.

 

Wow....

 

Post Edit...how do I get rid of the tire squawk sound?!?!?   MOST ANNOYING!

You could change the sound.  Just make a new wav file and place it in the sounds directory, replacing the original.  Make backups.

Thank you!  Will do....again...having a blast with B4...I haven't been this impressed between versions of any sim, in a long time. This is huge, and still beta! Wow...

With the latest nVidia driver, smooth animation from a low of 11, right up to my usual 30 FPS.  

 

These shots are my testing dusk to night transition, at Mackinaw Island

Final test shots, I have given control to A.I. in mid flight...to see what happens... :)  No tweaks to atmospherics...absolutely stunning dusk transition...

This is near Mackinaw Island...and looks very much like Orbx Global....

A.I. controlled approach to landing...with vectors...simply fantastic graphics!

Am sitting here, sipping coffee, and being a passenger. A.I. is going through all its new routines, from a perfect approach in the Eclipse 550, with my watching the air-speed bleed, to a perfect 90 knots, to controlled stall.  Perfect taxi to gates, and then the routine will be routed for departure with a new vector plan, as you see me once more heading out to the active under A.I.   Wow...and wow....
 
Great rotation, and new A.I. vectors to 15,000 ft....
 
Folks...THIS ROCKS!
 
Well,have to get outside and do some real-world yard work...but I'd rather play with the B4 'experience'....:)
 
To the entire XPX .50 crew...from the graphics, autogen, A.I. routines...WELL DONE!   BTW...one bug found in the A.I. control...once the A.I. pilot engages flap settings, the flap setting transition sound keeps looping...and does not shut down.  Just a head's up. This happened in the Eclipse, and in the B90.

Found another possible bug at night...near 15,000 feet...the star-scape is 'dancing'  The stars are moving about, as if 'dancing'. Should be checked out.  I have X-camera in play, but it is not the same as a head movement appearance.
