x-plane 123

Zoom in on the center of the images and you can see the "plus sign" for flying with the mouse, in addition to the clouds, water, autogen. I am almost certain this is X-Plane.

One more I learned about today. Milviz is making an ATR72-600.

This should help.

I believe the G1000 is still coming in 11.10, which should enter beta soon.

P-8 Poseidon :)

Oh, really? Any chance you could post it here?

They also mentioned on the dev blog that they hope to have an 11.10 beta out soon after 11.05 goes final, which should be pretty soon. They also said they'll have a more detailed write up about the performance improvements soon.

Both the video's look very nice, so I hope we get something like that for XP soon. A few months ago I saw a render* from the developer of Xenviro that was by far the best looking virtual cloud I have ever seen, however he said it took 45 minutes to generate just that one cloud. Maybe in 50 years we'll have the hardware to run a full sky of those. Anyways, I'm looking forward to what Enviro 1.07 will bring. If it looks anywhere as good as that render, we'll be in for a treat. *Unfortunately I forgot to save the image and I haven't been able to find it again.

Do you really need another 500GB's, Mitch? Don't you already have like 10TB's Seriously though, I just cleaned my drive and got a few hundred GB's back. More orthos!

Holy...

Thanks for checking in with Ben, Andras. Looking forward to the answer. Maybe you could give us a teaser or two in the meantime

914 new 3D airports since 11.00 bringing us to a grand total of 4817. Bug Fixes & Notes Fixed shadow issue with planes that have their physical hull offset from the 3d model’s bounding box. Includes Mc Carran International Airport (KLAS) with extensive Las Vegas Strip landmarks.

That's the one problem with the XP community. I go to fly the ZIBO 737 and I'm 5 versions behind. So I update that and get ready to go fly when I realize I need to update better pushback. Seriously though, I'm looking forward to try this when I return from my vacation.

Nice shots! What source/ZL are you using for Iceland? I've been wanting to make some for there and yours look great.

Beautiful! What source are you using for the orthos?

Release notes: Bug fixes: XPD-7163 Fix crash when reporting an un-towered field in sight. XPD-8051 Fixed settings.txt double line. XPD-8066 Fixed real weather download.

XPD-8085 Fix for inability to enter text in the (logarithmic) altitude sliders for clouds & wind. XPD-8088 Localizer in-op at KLGA. XPD-8091 Default GNS430/530 saves VOR waypoints as type “11” in .fms files.

If you are doing the western US, I would recommend using US West "Real Life" as it adds "locally flavored" objects. If you do use that, the scenery order would look like: -Airports, libraries, etc -US West -W2XP America -Ortho4XP overlays -Ortho4XP tiles -Other mesh If you are talking about this VFR Landmark scenery from Simheaven, I don't believe you need it as it should be included in W2XP America.

Awesome, thanks!

Looks quite good Tony, looking forward to trying it. Any plans to share this as well sometime?

Two more things talked about were performance improvements and the new effects system.

They talked about it at FlightSimCon today as well.

Awesome shots Brian!

If I am not mistaken, there is a preset for the FSK keyboard commands in the bottom left corner of the keyboard settings page. I imagine P3D uses the same keyboard commands as FSX?
