Saw this over on the FIghterOps forums. It's a video of a Bell 206 flying around an oil platform, showing off mostly the new water textures, rotor wash, and other really cool stuff.

wow I thought FSx would look good but not that good those textures are very nice, it looks more like a big budget FPS then flight simulator. Definatly a huge step forward in graphics, the waters better than css!

If you had told me that was real footage of a heli landing on an oil rig, i would have believed you. Shocked

The only thing that gives it away is the panning.

I agree........ for serious simmers it is about more than "eye candy". Yes the graphics look like a great improvement......... but what "functional stuff" have they changed?

And to actually get those graphics along with decent framerates........ what kind of machine will be necessary? (Certainly nmot the "minimum specification" they will post on the box. Tongue

Does this mean that the new water textures will be DX9 compatible? Unless of course if that machine had a DX10 card already in there...

Looks pretty good...love the water and how the rig reflects on it... 8)

HA! So true. Have you looked at the minimums on the box for FS9? I have a computer way more than twice as good as whats required and I STILL dont get what the preview screenshots showed

It was on twin 7800GTX's or that's atleast what a dev said, he also said fsX isn't SLI optimized.

Yes them videos and pictures are DX9
