October 12, 200619 yr I did a search, didn't see this one posted yet.Side-by-side real-world vs. FSX comparison:http://www.gamespot.com/pc/sim/microsoftfl...nBlxWH65bsFvj_Y

October 12, 200619 yr Nice link! It would be interesting to see the comparisons to that video from FS98 through FS9 as well from default then with add-ons. Interesting how far it's come.Ian.
October 12, 200619 yr The one on the right appeared to be experiencing some frame rate issues, hope they get those solved. I unfortunately have to wait until the 17th to get FSX.Jeff Jeff Commercial | Instrument | Multi-Engine Land AMD 5600X, RTX3070, 32MB RAM, 2TB SSD
October 12, 200619 yr St Barts got slaughtered though...One of the worlds most challenging approaches is no more.Islands of the west indies did the area nicely for fs9 maybe it will be done for fsx.
October 12, 200619 yr http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/158442.jpgCorrected versionhttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/158443.jpgWork in progress, still lots left to do - beaches, land class, resorts, Eden Roc, boats, Gustavia, forts, turbulence over col de la Tourmente, girls on the beach (yes, topless), and hope to do a mission as well: Certification at St. Barts with actual certificate as reward.Best regards.Luis Hot, humid Caribbean paradise!
October 12, 200619 yr Looks great, Luis :)What scenery tool did you use? Quote from MS Flight Team Lead: "We’ve made some guesses"
October 13, 200619 yr Well, it was all rather round-about. It was made using the new FS X shapefile techniques. But, I don't have any shapefile creation programs (expensive!), so, - drew the new island, and airport background, and excludes in SBuilder; - exported as BLN - modified BLN to add correct header information and z-coordinates (altitude) - used Jim Keir's BLN2SHP to convert BLN to shapefile (if you want it, just ask Jim in the scenery design forum - I am sure that he will be happy to offer it) - used new FS X Shp2Vec (in the SDK) to convert to bglIt should be noted that FS 9 scenery is compatible and will work in FS X, so scenery can continue to be made in Ground2K4, Sbuilder, or any other program.Best regards.Luis Hot, humid Caribbean paradise!
