The most irritating thing about FS9 for me (by far) is the VC. It's fine if you have one or two vcockpit sections in the panel.cfg, but above that it becomes unflyable. I fly only from the VC, and for this reason, stuff like the F1 PC-12 is completely useless. That particular aircraft has 6 vcockpit sections, so you get about 3 frames a second on the gauges. Straight into the bin is where that went.Is FSX different? If so, I'm buying it tomorrow. If not, well... how silly.

I can't comment on the VCockpit issue, but having fiddled around with GDI+ gauges I can say that after SP1 (I believe) they were super smooth, or at least a lot smoother than anytime before. Not quite sure if more VCockpit sections would have had an influence on this. But as said, in certain areas there certainly is some improvement.Cheers, :-beerchugEtienne :-wave
