Ken487 Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 I've seen a lot of talk about the cloud shadows in P3Dv2, and it's true, they are very immersive. But the thing that really knocked my socks off is the water reflections. If you like flying low and slow, the water reflections really turn up the immersion level. Here's some screenies from the Seward area in SAK to show you what I mean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shermank Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Frankly, I get much the same using FSX with the DX10 Fixer.... Sherm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jocko Flocko Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 They really are quite impressive, especially when combined with vegetation, terrain and cloud shadows. One thing you will also notice is the fact that when using hardware tessellation to render terrain mesh, the topography of mountains appear *MUCH* more complex and defined. Great shots.

Brito Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Never mind how it is in FSX, I have FSX too, what matters is that the P3D is going well. By the way, Ken, great shots, I loved them. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My error, I misinterpreted the post and now realize my mistake. The reflections in P3D are not available in FSX with DX10. These are great screen shots and they inspired me to upload a set of my own. You will find it in the thread labeled Flying the Dawn Patrol at Orcas Island. Sherm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
