Jack Sawyer Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 P3Dv4 - All Orbx - Changed REX settings and PTA then in the last shot over KATL modified the settings in PTA. Finally learning how to use PTA. Cloud shadows too dark in Germany so I changed it. This is all a combination of Adambar's settings. His REX sky colors, the PTAbosolute which I modified. Germany sure is pretty in the autumn though! Modified PTA here in Atlanta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingleaf Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Very nice shots Jack. But the cops are looking for a Cessna that flew underneath an overpass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

European Mountain Man Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Super set of screen shots Jack I was under the impression when I see you going under bridges I thought the next shot you where going to go inverted . Well you know in Germany it is against the law to go under road bridges very big fine regards stewart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't purchase Germany S yet as apparently there is a conflict with the payware Zurich airport that I only purchased a week or so ago. The developer has been informed, so I will see what happens. Out of interest are any of the military airbases covered well? I guess that GS would cover Ramstein AB as well as some of the German AF bases.

VH-KDK Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Beautiful set Jack, great scenery and another winner from ORBX. Heaps of bridges for you to fly under. 10 minutes ago, paulb said: Out of interest are any of the military airbases covered well?

Paul, they showed Ramstein in some of the preview shots, which was well covered, and after the way the bases were done in GEN I would think that GEN would be no different.

I agree, not a bad one in the bunch so far that I've bought. And I've seen that, a lot of cool bridges, towers, windmills, you name it ti's there. And castles, I found quite a few and some not at all. Gonna post them soon. 12 minutes ago, Sniper31 said: Jack, up to your old tricks again, now in Deutschland...it looks like you have nailed down some good PTA settings for these captures. Thanks Landon! Yep, can't keep an old dog down. I like these settings too, I tweaked them a little and now I'm quite happy. Screens to be posted soon.

To go that low in Germany like flying under the bridges, it is important to stay low as long as possible, so ATC may not trace you on the radar.... and squawk standby...

I'll bet it couldn't be done today though, but it was cool that he had the guts to do it back then. Just looked at a Wiki. He was 18, had only 50 hours, and before he went to Moscow he flew over all that open water to Keflavik. That's one heck of a lot of open water in a single engine plane over some of the worst ocean in the world! What an amazing story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
