December 21, 20169 yr SteveFX has made a FSX cloud shadow add-on for his excellent DX10 Fixer which breaths in a little new life into this 10 year old sim. In case you've been wondering what its all about, here's a few shots of its effect. Sure, other sims can do this (possibly better), but for us die-hards... (please click in each to review its full glory) Well, not exactly cloud shadows, but definitely a beauty queen: Thanks for viewing!

December 21, 20169 yr I already have the fixer, I sense an extra purchase in the new year. Nice old Cessna - lovely chrome finish. Mark Robinson Part-time Ferroequinologist Author of FLIGHT: A near-future short story (ebook available on amazon) I made the baby cry - A2A Simulations L-049 Constellation Sky Simulations MD-11 V2.2 Pilot. The best "lite" MD-11 money can buy (well, it's not freeware!)
December 22, 20169 yr Why the self-deprecation? Even P3D is basically a ten year old sim with some new tricks! So no reason to dump FSX since texture, plane, weather and ATC addons are available to make it look just as good as P3D! Now I won't go into X-Plane but please don't apologize for using FSX!

December 22, 20169 yr Which Cessna model is that please? Sascha Rieger | EVO Developer What is EVO • How to get Evo 2016 • FS9 Evolution Forum
December 22, 20169 yr Having that light and shade on the terrain makes a huge difference to feeling of flying.
December 23, 20169 yr Author Thanks for all the kind feedback. :smile: Why the self-deprecation? Even P3D is basically a ten year old sim with some new tricks!

How are us FS9 diehards going to feel? Sorry you took it that way. All I wanted to point out is what is probably the last major feature upgrade for FSX, hence the title. As for the Cessna, it's a C195 as modeled by http://www.alabeo.com/index.php?accion=product&correl=106.
