Hey Blade...I know you mentionedthe 747 was frm Project Open Sky, but is that the default Virtual cockpit? Also...where did you get the awesome 727? Were the textures and the model separate or together?

Lovely shots Blade. The 747 is a babe, is that Kai Tak you are taking off from?

Interesting shots Blade but why do you crop and edit all your shots I'd really like to see them in their full state.

Also I notice that you still have some anti=aliasing issues please feel free to contact me if you need any help.

Well I'll tell you why I crop. I crop because on my new 17inch flat screen the resolutions is at 1280x1024, I think it would be a bit big for the forum Wink

Yes Ozzy it is Kai Tak. I'm gonna post some more shots soon.

Nice pics Blade, that 747 looks real good.

What programme do you use to crop your shots? If it is Paintshop or Photoshop, you can just resize them.

Well those look much better.

I'm sure if you would now apply some anti-aliasing and anisotropy you'd really be able to improve your terrain textures by a whole lot. Also you'd be able to clear up some of those jagged edges on your wings etc.........

You might also want to check out your screen refresh rate which I'm sure you know about.

Blade,

The answer is that the location of the anti-aliasing which controls jagged edges and anisotropy which sets your terrain clarity and distance depends upon the drivers you're using.

Please read the mail I sent you and contact me through my e-mail at ramsa329@msn.com because otherwise it's too complicated and uses up a lot of space.

When you contact me send me every bit of info on your machine and drivers.

If you have instant messenger we could talk directly.

Congratulations on your new machine. Always liked Dell.
