10 more min.  Turning down my expectation just incase... 

 

tempering your expectation is the best thing you can do.

Just hope they showcase it on something better than a 2k laptop running on minimum settings 

So it is really called X-Plane 12, name speculations over.
Tomcat coming and promo video was really stuttery
 

I started tripping watching Austin's weather video....

what am I watching loool? austin is nuts

so far I am not impressed with their lighting rendering. I was expecting better.

watching live now the xp12 livestream and i lost my jaw somewhere on my floor😁

u da man Austin ❤️👍

 

bravo dev team also, Day1 buy.

Sadly, I think they could really do with getting a professional video producer to do their content... but there is something endearing about it :D

it does look better but it still look like a game that was done 7-10 years ago. I was expecting better lighting to be honest.

 Im going with xp12 being a smash hit 🙂

Sound stuff wins the cake, thats how you know they went beyond the call of duty.

lighting looks fine to me, the wind, trees, new graphics, new weather, new ATC, new everything...i'm in shock so far.....Austin and team just hit a home run in the flight sim dept.

Really pleased with the water, clouds and trees... the rest is an empty canvas ready to sculpt by third-parties

they improvement to the SDK are great. weather , cloud etc.. but the visual from a lightning perspective is a letdown. it looks extremely flat.
