xpoi demo-just tried

[Geofa 108]

I just tried the xpoi demo. Seems like Fsdiscover on steriods. Just wondered if anyone else has tried it and has some comments.GeofaMy blog:http://geofageofa.spaces.live.com/http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/193560.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/193562.jpg

I tried it also and i'm thinking about buying it. I noticed a decrease of 3 to 6 FPS when the POI's are active, though. The advantage i see over FS Discover is the Wikipedia browser. It's very handy.Here are some screens:

Yeah-noticed a few fps less too.Flew by my house-had every detail except Geofa's house-disappointed about that :-lol but despite that important missing detail it is really cool-learning lots about my neighborhood that I didn't know!GeofaMy blog:http://geofageofa.spaces.live.com/

You can tune XPOI to your system and decided what you want to see and at what distance so there is a very little impact to FPS. I like very much also the warp feature.I like to learn about the places where I'm flying

POIS GeoNames being dependent server geonames.org, so impossible to solve this problem by FSDreamteam, which is a shame becausethe program is only interesting for its geographic POISArnoz
