VH-KDK Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 It is very nice to fly a Spitfire again. 1. Running up the Merlin at Horsham St Faith, Norwich 2. Again I took many images but it wasn't until I got to Clacton on Sea that I realised what I had done wrong. DUH! 3. Manningtree on the Stour Estuary 4. The new sea port at Corringham with Canvey Island in the distance. 5. The crossing at Dartford. 6. Dartford, can you see Damyns Hall in the distance? 7. Biggin Hill, we wont mention the landing though. I will get used to this new screen capture method. Eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rodger Pettichord Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Hey V.H-VDK. Sure look good to me. As for the landing, cheer up, a lot of the original pilots cracked them up on landing too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Jack. The only thing I don't like is the long and lat details are more intrusive on the screen. No, one more thing is me forgetting the correct procedure on saving screenies. I was well into my flight until I realised I was again doing it wrong! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank John, I cannot get the hang of landing in XP, much more realistic than P3D due to me having the realism turned right down in LM. I have now been well and truly found out. I need to get some circuits in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did get the plane on the runway until it decided it was an ostrich and buried it's nose into the concrete. There is no secret to screenies just breaking a 10 year habit.

Your shots show lots of quality. My setup is basically i5 3750 and gtx 1060 so I get lots of 'rendering' warnings in game. For screenshots I 'pause', crank up the settings and click it. My main concern is the crappy 'antalias' in XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted November 29, 2018 Author Share Posted November 29, 2018 I think mine is a GTX780Ti and they recommend at least a 1070 so I am limited too. I also get the rendering warnings and from what I understand there is a time lag if your system runs below a certain speed. That must be why the co ordinates are so out of sync with my screenies.
