FS9.5 Never Had It so Good: Some Pits


Recommended Posts

Perhaps not FS9's strongest suit, up close and high-resolution.

Still there are some really good ones, and with the Maximum Poly Count barrier broken, no impediment to high-res internals.

I can spot the Caravan cockpit from a mile away :) Awesome pics!

Yes I couldn't figure out why Carenado chose to do a Caravan, but I bought it anyway, and of course it's their usual standard of beautiful modelling.

 

Thanks all, for your comments.

 

How are you getting this degree of definition in FS-9???

KC this sim is the culmination of a decade of throwing in textures and addons, so not really one answer.

One thing that really changed the look of my install was SweetFX.

You can fiddle on the fly, and get some really focussed effects.

Well, Carenado did a better job with the Caravan EX but not too shabby on the 208B. Flight dynamics could have been tweaked better...especially when using full flaps. Of course they didn't ask me for my opinion....haha

POSKY! It's the A330-200 previously shown here:

Amazing that this thing is freeware. eh?

Having used the CLS A330 for a long time, I've never really checked all POSKY's offers with care, I wasn't aware they made a VC-equipped A330. It really does look good...I was expecting the craft in your shot to be an A320 tho':o

You are very welcome! Was a time I thought Kiwis were somewhat over-represented in the FS community :cool:

 

How do you get FS9.5?

Many, many tweaks and custom planes and sceneries make the sim something more these days; some call their sim "FS9.5"

There is of course nothing "Official" beyond FS9.1

 

What makes their 777 so good? And what mods are required? Panel etc?

The model is one of Hiroshi's finest I reckon.

The VC was added later and made it exceptional.

I use the boggo 2D 777 panel because that's where I first discovered airliner stuff; there are dozens of others which I'm sure are better.

 

EDIT: I just looked in the library, and there are literally dozens - I found a nice one for my Overland 777!

 

I do think a 2D panel with an animated yoke adds a great deal of immersion; haven't seen any for the 777 though.

I wish I could remember where I took 'em from...it was either from FlightSim library, avsim, poskyarchive or some other freeware stuff-library such as fs-freeware.net, can't remember. But I do remember I was searching for merges between POSKY 777 models and a 777 panel from either Wilco or PSS 777, which I was ready to buy for this project, but I never found exactly what I was looking for and then I stumbled upon these freeware gauges and eventually decided to stay with them. I'll send them to you, check you PM.
