Mithrin Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 Ok ok I give in. I will put this up higher on my 'to buy' list. It does indeed look great. But not before PNW and Darrington. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve31000 Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I bought Caloundra last weekend and all I can say is WOW! I even felt compelled to express my satisfaction through the production of a video (Be sure to select 1080p/720p otherwise it looks grainy): This is how it runs on an i7@4ghz, 6gb RAM, ATI 5870. I run it on full settings with 100% GA aircraft with around 30fps. I loose about 10fps running fraps in the video. Now I want to visit Caloundra in person it looks so amazing. The scenery is so detailed, I feel I could find my way around already just from using the scenery (and walking as BOB of course). 10/10 Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drumsonly2002 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Now I have to add YCDR to my collection. What I like about reviews like that, Orbx getting the recognition it well deserves. We are all in it together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve31000 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Nice vid. indeed but that was a hell of a take off..........phew Lol Yeah, my takeoff was pretty hair raising...As a man I can't multitask so well. Taking off and filming the perfect angle at the same time is a recipe for disaster. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve31000 Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 Using REX, my water is set to 'sparkling'. One of the best themes I think. My sky theme is 'Australia'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
