    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, Registered Users 2 Posts: 392 ✭✭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?

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

    Yeah, it is indeed (to both :D). I have been eyeing very it closely. As you said it really does sounds like its going to be awesome alright. Kinda also interested having a peak at the paintkit(as well as the systems (of course:D)).

    Nice one, I never had much of an interest in Airbuses but I'll definitely be getting the a320. Lots of people seem to be moving to xp11, be interesting to see if the likes of pmdg and qualitywings will convert their planes, here's hoping they do :)

    It's v1, I had no idea there was a v2! I see that I have a discount code for it alright on the store but I must look into it to see if it's worth the upgrade. The static planes and people were added by myself.

    Went ahead and got it, only cost €4 with the discount code. To be fair there's a noticeable difference from v1, it looks to be a lot more up to date with the real airport.

    Sweet....I did a bit of work on a converted scenery of Umea...added fences and a couple of trees and some lights as well.

    Haha nice one, do you know the Cork Airport scenery done by XPIH? I've fairly heavily modified it and the surrounding scenery to be a lot more realistic and with way more objects, I'll throw up a few pictures tomorrow and can send you the file if you like? I'm working on Shannon at the moment too. I also have the whole country done with ortho4xp :cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,424 ✭✭✭Ciano35


    Hey Skynight I've posted a new thread over here with the scenery. :)

    That looks awesome :cool:. I'll download it and give a run . Many thanks for the work you've put into it.
