Please read the *whole* thread before jumping to conclusions. Besides, I have marmal-aid injections and I'm not afraid to use them.

Thanks a lot for the link Katahu

The interface is really close to the one of FS9 with some enhancements, new settings etc, and everything seems as intuitive as in FS9, or more.

Got bloom ?
Got mountains ?
Got damage ?

Much better on the scenery choices.

I like the fact how you can choose how much commercial OR general aviation traffic and not just increase all of it; as well as sperate sliders for Airport ground vehicles, Cars, Boats and ferries and "leisure boats"

Personally i dont like the menu screens but thats just me Tongue

I dont like the default controls but I can change those Tongue

The interface looks good enough for me as long as I get more control over scenery and traffic options.

Oh, and uh... Ecko, what's the problem with 20 FPS? Most people can't notice frames beyond 26-30 anyways because of the way our minds process the imagery.

Well, maybe I'm not like most people.. Roll Eyes

Seriously though, I haven't got a 7800GTX, and I need at least mid thirties FPS in very high settings, so I'm looking at very big upgrade.. I think!!

I notice upto 60 therr is a definate differance in smoothness between 60 and 30.

what suprised me is bilinier filtering... that looks horible!

as for the bluries... I hope the same tweeks work in fsx as fs2004 as they are the most annoying things... grrr.

as Kat said, the human eye/brain can't process more than 28fps roughly IIRC.
this isn't a person to person thing.

And like Ecko said, he's not like most people. Does that mean that Ecko is a genius since his brain can process faster? Grin

I TOLD YOU! All along Ive been saying that they will probably include lots of otions in the settings because of the complexity. I said all along that Im sure traffic will be divided up so ground traffic and stuff will be a seperate setting, and Ive also said that all those special things like sun bloom, sun glint, dynamic shading would be optional. But no one listened.

And as far as the FPS being locked so low, just look:they have FS Anti Aliasing on Roll Eyes
