Maurice_King Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 Ya know it never ceases to amaze me that a company with the resources that MS have at their disposal can get it SO BLOODY Wrong, when a fledgling company like orbx Simulation Systems can achieve so much that is as near to perfection as you can get IMHO with like minded and dedicated personnel and volunteers. Makes you wonder what could have been if other developments had occurred. Brilliant report too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest volcom1720 Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 "everybody wants to see a FPS figure as high as possible and everybody becomes frustrated when looking to the RH upper corner of your FSX screen when this figure is not as expected. The trick is as Nick Needham writes to many flight simmers - do you have a smooth motion/movement of your virtual FS world? If the answer is YES, than there's no need to see higher frames than needed." I totally agree Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aybe You're quick right .... \ it's indeed located in the upper LH corner (probably due to too many glasses of wine). Anyway, the words and advices of Nick where and are still very helpful and that's the most important thing. Amen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of a harsh statement and not a fair comparison in my book. First of all Orbx wouldn't have the platform to make their gorgeous scenery without Microsoft. Secondly, Orbx took little over a year to cover only Australia while Aces had to cover the entire globe in the development time they got for FSX. Nevertheless, this review is well deserved. It's simply the best addon scenery available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
