OK So I am still tweaking my Irfanview after reformatting, so these images might not be as clear as I want them, but I have noticed a remarkable improvement in my flight sim already thanks to Ramsa329 at FS-GS and he isnt even done with me yet. The service this group provides is ONE OF A KIND, and they have me as a lifelong client now, whether they like it or not Tongue

Awsome shots, I knew from the title what these shots were gonna be of.

I love Lyons stuff its always great!

Its just a shame the train is classed as AI as it doesnt appear in multiplayer Sad

Hey Savas I noticed somthing real cool with the new drivers I got. I think I have 66.72's at the moment but I am sure 66.81's will have the same option.

When I am on my graphics display options where I alter the colour vibrance etc I noticed a new button 'Image Sharpness' Just turning this up a notch and FS looks even better. I am unsure if it would capture in a screenshot though.

These are still BETA drivers btw but I have improved in FPS slightly and bench tests score a fair bit higher too. Some people have had problems with AA on the .72's but I dont see any, the 81's dont have any probs as far as I am aware.

Have you overclocked that GT yet Savas?

Edit: LOL I typed that and forgot to say Nice shots 8) Try land on it Grin

Fantastic Stephen...wonderful

Keep them coming

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug
P.S. Stephen...back in the 60s I was flying an Otter for a bush outfit North of North Bay Ontario, caught a freight train going across a bay on a bridge. Popped over an island prior to a bend and lined up with the tracks, the sun was behind me, flipped on my landing light and you should have seen the sparks fly.
Dam I was bad back then, I am a perfect little gentleman now

The train travels probably about 10 minutes give or take a minute or two. Its a straight line track, and not sure if it is part of the actual scenery or just part of a saved flight plan.

ANd yeah thats a cool story Trucker!
