jlindblo Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 I was blown away after installing some of the Orbx products so made the following video. This is a depiction of 2 systems ... one without FTX enhancements and one with FTX enhancements. Without is my i5 2500K GTX 760 and with is my i5 6600K GTX 980 Ti but the comparison is about the scenery and not about the aircraft resolution. I tried to duplicate the flight but I do not have Ezdok on the older so I was somewhat spastic in looking around. When I added FTX Trees and FTX Vectors on my new system I was blown away ... I was doubtful but now I'm a convert. Basic upgrade path for me was in this order; FTX Central Rocky Mtns, FTX Global base, FTX Holgermesh, FTX Trees and FTX Vectors. When Vectors straightened out the roads, rivers and sharp edges it was a huge difference. Everything was on sale at the time (until the end of this month) so I couldn't resist ... and I'm glad I didn't. It was definitely worth the money.

Just getting an aircraft off the ground and back down in one piece was a major accomplishment as I remember. And thanks for your reply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
