  1. so it only happens when using a certain plug-in for viewing?
  2. Amen to that. To often, have I made a terminal thats as tall as the empire state building
  3. Its called anti aliasing... Austin quite often puts up unaliased shots. Which seems a bit in a products preview... but I wouldn't go as far as to say it looks awful. Even FSX'ers know that X-Plane's AA can be set. It is a vast improvement... But the lighting engine doesn't look very different to X-Plane 9's engine. The lighting still looks like its done with images and the lights do go into the ground but the glow is not physical. Its something that is done in the eyes. Therefore I think the draw order should be higher than the ground so it shouldn't go in the ground. Also the Weather system looks the same, however, its a WIP. So i'm sure austin hasn't got round to impliementing it all. I'm being nit picky, and the shots still look great. Good job Austin and Ben!
  4. HA really? If memory recalls it was taken from a airliners.net photo (Somewhat different paint scheme but pretty similar). Do they still have it?)
  5. LOD's are exactly what your after, however Im not sure that they will trump the world distance detail. If you turn that up, you will see your boxes from further away.
  6. Trust me, when there's advancements, you'll see em
  7. Well thats a long list but to name a couple Nils' BK-117 As for airliners, the best things airliners wise you can get are the XPFW 757 and Edat x737 However, stay tuned for new airliners, like the XPJ 777, CRJ-200, 747/200/400 and Saab 340 if you like regional stuff(i know, i'm shameless )
  8. Nothing here will ever get sold through the .org store.
  9. Look Great! I love them! Thanks MdMax
  10. And a few others... C&C Welcome.
  11. Looks very clever. My one criticism from someone who hasn't used the program (mac user). The overall tone of the night lighting seems to be quite red rather than yellow. Kinda looks like your flying over some Mars volcano terrain. Otherwise, well done. Very good idea!
  12. When I open, it unexpectedly quits... (Like as soon as I double click the icon) PPC OSX 10.5.8
  13. Space Bar -> Add -> Mesh -> Cube Though I can't say the blender word round ola
  14. 1. The flaps are mechanic. You can't hear them in the real one 2. We'll take a look. 3. The real one have any lights either. 4. They make sounds on my computer. Are all your volume sliders up? 5. We'll try get the compass fixed and more readable along with all the gauges 6. We'll look into it aswell Glad your still enjoying it -TheoGregory
  15. There's too many variables to work out why its not working. Tell us what your doing and are the planes just not showing up? Or they do odd things...?
  16. Thats the freeware one: http://www.my-planes.com/my-planes/my-planes/FREEWARE/Pages/Evergreen_Boeing_747-200_Supertanker.html#1 The Payware one: http://www.my-planes.com/my-planes/my-planes/747_Cockpit.html#2 Is it just me or does the freeware panel look better than the payware one... Nicolas has hit a new level in... (for lack of a better word), weird.
  17. $15 for a half obj based, pm based aircraft with a 2d panel and by nicolas' own admission it has a "simplified 3D panel". That seems reasonable but I still won't be one buying it. What I really do laugh at though is nicolas' feature list. A feature is something that is, in my mind, something that gives the product a sort of 'edge'. Among the features. • correct sequencing of all the gear doors. • gear retracts and extends as it should. If this is what he puts on the feature list, I can't help but wonder what isn't a feature (what doesn't work)
  18. Your sorta out of luck for KLAX. There is no freeware scenery for KLAX. (Atleast in pretty damn sure there isn't)... As for the payware side of things, you can no longer convert FSDreamteam with cloud 9 installer for x-plane. KSFO has FlyTampa but that almost never converts for people though I have seen some nice KSFO scenery in some screenshots so i guess it occasionally works. My opinion is this: KLAX: http://web.me.com/theosdavis/xpfiles/downloads.html http://blueskyscenery.com/download.html http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?automodule=downloads&showfile=11045 KSFO: http://web.me.com/theosdavis/xpfiles/downloads.html http://blueskyscenery.com/download.html http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?automodule=downloads&showfile=11046 Anyway back to the actual thread
  19. I'll be the first to chime in here and say well done Samen. Looking good. Keep it up!
  20. Congratulation Spain. Well deserved! Im just happy we won a game. And drew with the previous world champions (I'm used NZ not even making it the world cup)
  21. Its unfortunate because Orbx airport sceneries are right up there with FlyTampa and FSDreamteam. I converted watnervale by Orbx. Was like 350 mb before conversion. After conversion the file turned into something like 20 mb. Of random selected objects around the airport. A shame really.
  22. Orbx scenery converts horribly from my previous experiences.
  23. Make it as detailed as YOU want it. Its your scenery. No scenery should really take more than 30 seconds to load up though. If a scenery load takes more than 30 seconds something is corrupted or something has gone wrong somewhere (glitch)... If the scenery load causes x-plane to crash more than once, you might try checking your log.txt in your root folder. It MAY reveal the source of the problem. I think there might be wasted resources somewhere that you could cut down. How big is the folder of your scenery?
