Sightseeing in a Malibu Mirage (FSW)

Nice shots. What was the location of your flight? Jim

 

Thanks! I took off from Bowerman Airport (KHQM) in the Seattle area and flew over one of the nearby national parks. I think it was Olympic National Park. I think the first shot shows the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Somewhere near the town of Port Angeles.

Oh cool, nice to hear from someone with a real world connection to my screenshots! Looks like a really nice part of the world!

 

I forgot to mention that Im actually using ReShade 3.1.0 in the sim. The reason being FSW has a very cartoony look to it and ReShade helps remove that. Although Im still working on configuring it a bit more.

What would be cool is to see screenshots of FSW's latest version *stock* along with the same scene/time of day/season while using your ReShade configuration, Throttle_Up..

 

That did cross my mind - after I'd uploaded the screenshots :(

 

I plan to do that later today and post configs. I'll also post my ReShade.ini for anyone to try. I'll tweak it the best I can to strip away the cartoon feel of stock FSW.

Now I remember you. That African screenshot post a half dozen years ago and your favorable comments about RR Dart engines. :cool: How time flies...

Whoa, you got a good memory dude! Damn, where did the time go :confused:

 

 

Some nice shots from the cockpit of your Malibu Mirage. :cool: :cool: :)

 

Thanks! Its a good sim, still early days but I think its got a lot of promise.

I agree, those are great shots! My brother lives near Bremerton and I spent considerable time there this year. Your shots appear hugely correct.

 

Also I'd like to ask. Could you possibly do a few of us tight-assess a huge favor and include similar shots without FSW?

 

It would be much appreciated!! ;)

You mean using another sim? Haha I will do that. Will post shots from FSXSE & XPlane 11. XP11 looks so good out of the box I dont even bother with addons. For FSXSE I use Orbx

Yes ORBX is what I use with FSX as well. What I'm hoping to see is shots of the same locations using different sims or/and scenery packages. So I can compare the quality of the scenery.

 

Being retired I am a lot more careful where and when I spend my cash than when I had a decent income! ;)

 

Thanks!!
