    what flight sim is this?

    I used to play Ms Flight Simulator years ago.. The one where you could try to land a 737 on an aircraft carrier

    How are you finding xplane 11 compared to 10?

    I haven't used XP10 since XP11 was released, that probably speaks for itself. Its still officially in beta but it is very good. Some XP10 addons don't work fully yet like the IXEG 737 but most scenery addons are fine.

    What scenery is this for FS9? Stunning.


  • Registered Users Posts: 390 ✭✭Skyknight


    Sorry for the terrible title(and for getting you hopes up), Psychlops,
    :( I wish it were FS9.....then at least there would be seasonal textures..rain and snow:D. The Tonka screenshots are in XPlane 10.....with Ortho4XP for the textures and orthogen.

    AirBiscuit......ETOPS(Engines Turning or Passengers Swimming)? :D

    And swam they did, landed with a hydraulic failure and had multiple birdstrikes during the rollout before I could turn the reverser on on the good engine

    I got x-plane 11 anyway, and I have to say I really like it. I got ortho4xp working over the weekend and now have a realistic looking Cork county:

    I love the night lighting too, although the moon still needs to be fixed. This is over Cork city:

    Oh they look a way better now. I was using these modded clouds I downloaded which don't look bad either:

    The HD clouds and better sky colours? I was using them too but I felt those clouds are far too flat and the sky colours far too navy.

    Just a note, if you go back to the default sky colours, delete the script from the FlyWithLua folder, otherwise you get white clouds at night and (this is speculation on my part) FPS drops. I usually get ~30 but when pb14 came out it was down to about 7 until I removed the script

    Yeah that's the one, weird thing about the sky colours is it removes the sun and moon which is kinda annoying. :confused: Thanks for that, I'll give it a go now. Is it just the better_sky112 script I need to delete?

    Also does anyone have the Aerosoft Dublin package? Is it much better than the XPIH paclage?

    Just a few pics to highlight how nice ortho4xp looks approaching Dublin:

    Xp11? Watch out for the flight factor a320 to be released soon, it's meant to be excellent.
