August 8, 20178 yr A pair of shots from my recent CRJ adventures. Climbing out of KJAC on a short hop to KDEN Descending over the San Francisco Bay area on approach to KSTS The second shot is from a flight I did today KPHX-KSTS. The flightplan was IZZZO6 HRRBR CURIV J212 DECAS BOILE AVE PXN OAK SAU STS which took me on a nice tour of very busy airspace/sceneries that simply would have been impossible before P3Dv4 without causing a OOM crash somewhere around the LA Basin, nevermind getting anywhere near San Francisco. With ORBX NCA and SCA activated, I departed Flightbeam KPHX, flew over ORBX KPSP, within view of FSDT KLAX and LatinVFR KSNA, near ORBX KMRY, within view of Flightbeam KSFO, and eventually into ORBX KSTS, all without worrying about the "dings of death" OOM warning we've all become accustomed to. It's a great time to be a flight simmer!

August 8, 20178 yr Moderator Nice shots but they look so dark to me for being in day light. Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
August 8, 20178 yr I agree wholeheartedly! Valdez with 4096 textures in P3Dv4 is another one that makes me catch my breath, light-years ahead of my expectations , and FTX Innsbruck... Well! What can I say? This is a huge jump in reaching new heights, please pardon the pun. :) Kind regards

Underexposed daylight to the point where it almost has an "underwater" look to it. - Currently giving X-Plane 12.10 a spin on Shadow PC. 10 years with X-Plane now, since 10.20
August 10, 20178 yr It's people who run HDR - the default HDR produces very dark scenes.
