Jack Sawyer Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 Well, this is for @Tim Harris. From back in August when you suggested this very route Tim. OF beta program, All Orbx stuff, AS4 on, ChasePlane, Matt Davies' modified PTA, REX, etc. This flight is from NSTU, Pago to NSFA Fagali'i and it was beautiful.

paulb Posted October 19, 2017 Share Posted October 19, 2017 A superb series of shots Jack! I really like your 'step by step' approach here. As though we are coming on the flight with you. Your sim looks great now and all of the 'add ons' that you have there must make it a first class experience. Well, 12.18 here, so I am off to bed!

Thanks Paul, it was a very short flight for a 777 but since Tim mentioned it I thought with OF2 why not, and I had a great time. I just wish I could figure out how to change the water to a little more greenish blue tint. Posted at the AVSIM PTA site asking how to do this. Wish I knew more about this little app, it's extremely powerful but it can get tedious with shutting down the sim, making one change and running the sim, and rinse and repeat. But I gotta tell ya, Pago is so lush and green, now my wife wants to visit there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Karl! It's all Orbx my friend, they give us this big beautiful sandbox to play around in and I'm like a little kid at Christmas now with the new OF2, testing all my airports. I have almost all their stuff so I have a long way to go but it's fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jethro VH-JET Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 Magnificent pictures Jack, a great advert for the product, I'm sure Tim and Ken would agree how beautiful it looks in P3Dv4 with your settings and OF2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VH-KDK Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 What a great flight Jack, beautiful shots of the 777. You must be so happy to have your old ORBX haunts back again. You make the scenery appear so lifelike in these images, well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently I use REX4 for the water textures, ASCA for sky and clouds, and PTA for the shaders. As you know, the different water sets in REX4 will give you different 'blues'. Perhaps best to start there and then use the shaders/PTA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex4 TD Enhanced Edition. You might have the same Jack? Anyway, it might be worthwhile checking out the different 'blues' for water to see if you prefer one.

Anyway, it might be worthwhile checking out the different 'blues' for water to see if you prefer one. Hi Paul, I already did and didn't like any of them, they all look purplish to me, way too deep blue. I grew up on the ocean in Boston and I like to see it as kind of grayish/greenish, not this deep dark blue. I'm afraid I'll have to live with it.

andy1252 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 truly lovely set of shots, Jack. Another one of those areas I seem to ignore but you've inspired me - I'll have to take a visit. Certainly looks like you're all set up now - these really are great shots - very atmospheric. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Andy, I felt the same way, it's one of those remote places you never think to go but when you go there you're amazed at the lushness and green of it all. 22 minutes ago, Ken Hall said: Glad you enjoyed the flight Jack, great photos Thanks Ken and thanks for all your outstanding work, you make our flying experience so much better!
