This software is getting better and better every day. It's such a tremendous improvement in every aspect, IMHO.

I see your system specs.  Do you have the ability to post an image of your monitor settings?  Brightness, contrast, color balance selectors, etc?  Your results are significantly different from mine for each of the two wx presentations and I would like to see how you are creating those results.

I said before that it was not for me but I take back my words, I am not flying without anymore.

Also the whole lightning in the sim has changed for the better somehow, because of humidity maybe?
