Maybe it's just conventional AI, driven by generated time tables from FlightAware. So no realtime flight tracking, but the same as in FSX/P3D, only with dynamic flight plans instead of fixed flight plans. That would be easy to accomplish, without the realtime sync problems.

do you hear the aircraft when you're on ground and above is a plane at a 35.000ft? in RL you hear that plane very clearly.

Check out the Soundscape episode. Might not be at 350 but I think the effect is there.

I see. So let's try these then.

Well, judging from all the pictures and videos I have seen so far, I´d say over 90% are just awesome and the remaining 10% show some expected limitation in the AI driven image approach, which still look lots better than what I have seen in similar areas in my other sims.

Weather, sound, cockpits, flight planning, interactions etc all seem to be fine, too.

Flight model is left to be seen when available, but to be honest, I will not judge the flight model based on the default planes but wait until PMDG, FSLabs, Flight Factor (hopefully?) etc. will showcase their plans for implementation of their fleets and if / how they can maybe take advantage of this. At the moment I strongly think, that my P3D relation is finished by that time (not necessarily before though) despite the money I invested in it. Not sure about XP, but I guess it will survive on my PC and remain my second sim.

i think i will loose my virginity thanks to msfs

how did you get all of these screenshots????

In some of the leaked videos we can see the ATC and the map window. I don't recall seeing anywhere if it's possible to move them to other monitors?

If they (MS) have adressed it somewhere, please put a link to it.

 

 

As the map can obviously undocked like in earlier versions, I‘d assume it’s possible to pull that undocked window over to a second screen. Just speculating though.

Yes they can be undocked and moved

anyone have experience with hdr brightness  in msfs?

Actually. the more I think about this, the more I am convinced the data from Flight Aware has to be approximate, and therefore just used to populate a list of flights and their approximate location and flight plan.  The sim will have to make up the rest.  There are just too many variables, like in game vs. real world ATC.  FS is probably programmed with parameters that decide which runways to use based on wind, but real word is likely to be different, not to mention large airports with multiple runways in use at one time.  The sim is going to have to take the basic information and turn it into something that sort of resembles real world.  I'm thinking AA1234 will exist in both the sim and real world, arrive and depart roughly around the same time, and potentially follow similar flight paths, but I don't see the sim representing a 1 to 1 depiction. 

If I recall correctly, didn’t they say that the flights will be depicted as they are on FlightAware, but if a plane loses radar signal etc. AI will take over until it returns?

Everything on ultra. GPU was on 99%, CPU on ~30% load if I remember correctly.

I hope i will get similar results with my OC i5 3570k and a GTX 1070. 

How has this thread not been locked yet? i thought avsim was the most uptight of all places on this typa stuff

msfs pays avsim to stay open

Some photos here that I'd not yet seen...and some that I have.

This 152 shot is particularly appealing
