  1. This looks like a real MSFS weather event! :lol: But it's a nice shot Martyn!

    To give my opinion too: The unique property of MSFS is the "download scenery" all over the world.

    Everything else makes it the #3 sim behind P3d and XP for me. Also with regard to flying itself which works best in XP I think.

    some wonderful shots there Andreas, it's an area I haven't flown much but I think I may visit again, I'll be honest though I don't like the night shot, do the pyramids get lit up at night in real life?

    Thanks a lot Wayne. Seems to be lit up at night as the James Bond video shows. But here it's way too bright.

    Beautiful images Andreas.

    I didn't realise how close the Pyramids were to habitation.:unsure:

    Keep on posting unless you are busy of course.

    I, for one, enjoy looking at your flights.:)

     

    Thank you Martyn! :) It's an extremly populated area there with thousands of buildings.

    And thank you very much again, I will go on posting as soon as I will do the next flight which is worth it.

    Do not underestimate the distances in this big, big continent, Andy. To find the photoreal areas or other attractions you may have to consult the manual (if there is any?) or the screenshot forum. Look for posts tagged with OLC (or openlc) africa, and consider some reportsd from @jean marc, maybe even mine...

    Yes Gerold, thank you, I will go to certain areas which are well know from the news or history. And I will look at the posts I can find. 

    To go from one area to the other may indeed be a bit too long to fly. Or I let it fly and do something else....B)

    Nice shots of Egypt Andreas, pretty soon there will be suburbs on all 4 sides of the pyramidsB)

    Thank you and you are right :), there is some space left they can occupy to sell the souvenirs...

    Thank you Landon. :) Overall the scenery gives a good impression of the country and the big city and the Pyramids as a poi.

  3. Well done shots again Paul, looks perfect. :) Unfortunately Mr. Tony does not work for P3d and I have TE England in P3d,

    so I cannot install the airport. But I have this aircraft as well in XP, it's great and it's free.

  4. Very nice shot Martyn. :) I just installed the freeware airport for Skopje LWSK which also works very well 

    with the EU OLC, it's great. And I just looked at the map, Skopje is around 1050 km airknee to the southeast.

  5. Hi all,

     

    last days I 've posted a lot, will have a little break than...:)

     

    But this here was on a nice little flight today, started at HECA and visited the pyramids and than followed the river Nile to Alexandria.

    Scenery is Orbx OLC Africa and the mesh and a little pr and it's really not bad, I like it. Will have to visit more places in Africa in P3d.

  7. Hi all,

     

    2 older shots again now. Sceneries where you can have such a view is really what I want.

    This is XP11 at Key West and FSX with the Cup at Goheen.

    yeah I will be in early as I do lots of testing on all sims for Just Flight so I anticipate updates or something being pushed out to test....

    This is of course something different, so you will need the updates to run the new sim more easily. I myself am really tired of updates

    regarding our nice computer world all in all. :) :banghead:

    yeah I agree all p3d installs in separate library, really tempted to put v4 back on my rig but if xp12 comes out soon I will be short on space....

    Regarding XP12 I am not interested in the beta and the official launch is estimated for fall this year. There will be a lot of updates in the 

    beginning, so this is not so urgent I think. One of the best things is to run a sim which will not be updated anymore and is acceptable nevertheless.

    Great shots Andreas... I'm looking at reinstalling v4, I think it was the best version of p3d..

    Thank you Wayne...and I agree, v4 is a very good sim and I cannot use v5 because of my little videocard.

    You can install v4 and v5 both on the same system I assume, I have v3 and v4. And in v4 it's best to install all scenery as addons.

    A wonderful  mega set there Andreas.:o

    Not only a picturesque scenery but plenty of little extras to be found with a slower plane.;)

    Thank you Martyn and you are right. But in this set it was the racetrack and it was more about the overview. :)

  11. Hi all, 

     

    these shots are more than 1 year old and I decided now to post it again because it really shows top notch scenery and aircraft.

    Sorry 29 shots but I couldn't decide which shots to delete. :)  This is P3d 4.5, Orbx PAVD Valdez and the Carenado 690B Turbo Commander.

  13. This is great Gerold, you don't have a jet! :) And it seems to be South Africa and the OLC landclass, interesting.

    I am successively exploring this. Of course it provides scenery for a whole continent which would be 4 TB or so in TrueEarth. :)

  14. Hi all,

     

    now I picked my old A2A Cup again which I really used a lot over the years.

    It's a little flight from San Luis Opispo to Santa Barbara which is an about 130 km knee. 

    So it will be much more than an hour in the Cup which is really not fast. 

    To survive this I took a potion of coffee with me and a few cookies. :) 

     

    Sim is FSXSE, A2A Cup, Orbx South Cal region scenery and KSBA airport scenery.

     

     This is the airport at San Luis Opispo. One of my first airports in the US to explore in FS9, I thought "San Luis Opispo", sounds good and a bit different. 

    MqJeN9s.jpg

     

    Looks cool and pretty relaxed...this aircraft flies 15 minutes and more without touching anything, holding altitude and course and speed.

    Of course without autopilot...

    Dl4ZhxZ.jpg

     

    Some nice scenery at Oceano.

    AfIkmzD.jpg

     

    Coming to Lake Cachuma and coffee and cookies are finished...really bad.

    2HCMCD4.jpg

     

    This is really a little TE scenery and a first class airport, I always loved it.

    Everything comes together very nicely, topped of with the Junkers.:)

    Thanks a lot Martyn. The Junkers is another very nice aircraft in flightsimulation and it's a good price. Our aircraft is really on a high level today.

    nice Andreas, very nice, and boy did your weather simulator comment make me laugh....

    :) Thank you Wayne. To tell the truth I am a bit disappointed because they don't offer any tools to handle it.

    We really need 2 things:

     

    - It must be possible for texture designers to create a tool like "Texture Direct" also for MSFS. Obviously so far it's not because Rex today 

    only offers a weather engine.

     

    - We need a little panel as it is in P3d to adjust brightness, contrast, saturation and bloom by sliders.

     

    Of course this has to do with Asobo who are video game designers and so they are used to always have a bombastic screen.

    But it should be possible for everyone to adjust this to the own preferences.  

    As long as they do not provide this I feel free and call it a Weather Simulator. :)

     

    Cheers

    Andreas
