Warning: X-plane 10.20 is in very early beta state. Do not download it, except if you'd really want to be a beta tester and know what it means. And if you do so, please read the release notes and the 64bit FAQ. Disclaimer: Everyone interested in the subject should know it by now: X-Plane 64 does not run faster than the 32 bit version. It only allows people with powerful computers to push graphical settings higher, and make good use of all RAM and Video memory available. I run X-Plane on Linux, and was often hit by the virtual memory limit crashes which plagues the 32bit version. Especially when flying over orthophotos covered with buildings extracted from OpenStreetMap with the great OSM2XP utility. For example, flying over Paris was impossible due to the sheer amount of building present in the OSM data. So the first thing I did when testing the new beta was to put back the OSM scenery folder, and start at Orly with the beautiful DR400 from XPFR. And there I was, flying over Paris, playing with the settings until nearly everyting was maxed out. (Technical details: Number of buildings: max.Trees: max or nearly max. Roads: max. Textures size: max. Shadows: max. World details distance: medium or high depending on the shot. HDR on. Antialiasing: 4xFSAA + FXAA.) Ok this is not what I call flyable. Usually between 7 and 20 fps. And very soon my system started to swap a lot, which means it used every drop of my 8GB RAM. Ok ok, I'll buy more. But this is interesting anyway. I don't thinks I have ever seen that many objects in a sim. Correct me if I'm wrong. At least, this gives a good idea of what X-Plane will allow in the very near future in term of polygon number. I bought my GPU (Nv 680) half a year ago, I guess the next generation will have no problem at all displaying every single small house in Paris at a reasonable framerate. Right now, I just have to take two or three of the settings down one notch to enjoy a perfectly fluid flight. But I wanted to show you some more extreme shots. I find this totally crazy. And you ? What do you think ? -

I tried to open the installer that I found in the X-Plane.com website. But it happens nothing: the error message is: No such file or catalog. I want to try it fastest as possible. -

So I keep wanting to try Linux. It seems to be gaining speed slowly and with Win 8 being more geared towards tablets, Linux keeps calling my name. I'm using Win 8 now, and so far happy with it for the most part, but I'm thinking of installing a 4th drive on my system to use just for Linux testing and may, down the road, switch to it if I'm happy and comfortable with it. My question is, what addons for X-plane don't work in Linux? Also, un-related to X-plane, is there any video editing software for Linux? Rob
