Seeing how I have been under a rock the last nine months, I just downloaded the demo tonight.

The buildings painted on the scenery seem a little low rent (no pun intended)... Roll Eyes

The planes are absolutley gorgeous! Shocked

Why is there no Aircraft folder in the demo?

High FPS and NO stutter! What more can you ask for? Grin

What's with the external view that replaced the tower view? Looks good, but kind of clumsy...

HOW BIG DID THEY SAY IT WAS? Shocked

All in all, it's a keeper... Wink

Hi Kevin,
You should read some of the first topics about this demo, they are full of usefull infos.
For the aircraft folder, it's still there, but in another path, something like simobjects\aircraft if I remember well.
You can also drop some FS9 aircrafts there

For the scenery, the first screens we got from the beta are just awesome, better than anything I could see in the demo screens.
For the views, new system there. In each mode (internal VC, external) if you press the A key, you will switch to the submodes (tracking view, tower etc... in external, and VC positions or 2D cockpit in internal if I am not mistaken).
Enjoy

Got bloom ?
Got mountains ?
Got damage ?
