Lol! Glad I'm not the only one. I thought I was missing something with the plethora of screenshots on the forum... Smiley

I'm holding my breath waiting for these screenies because without trying to upset anyone, I've not seen anything yet that looks better than FS9.

Reckon the only way anyone can get any kind of decent FR is with all the effects turned way down - but I remain to be convinced  Wink


I have yet to see ANY FSX screen shots that equal or surpass the best that FS9 can do. To me it's not worth considering at all until Vista and DX10 are established.  What about the rest of the sim functions,  ie flight planning, ATC. etc etc Let's hear about the real meat of FSX (if there is any) Not screen shots that I can match on my low end system with FS9!!!
BTW Has anyone yet seen elephants from FL370 or have thay all been shot by poachers?

Well, I did get FSX today but have not taken any screen shots yet, but the flight was interesting.

I loaded it on an MSI K8N-SLI with an AMD 4600 and a 7900 GTX OC.

With the res set at 16X9 the FPS between High, Medium High and Medium Low was nil (21FPS average for all) but going to Ultra High dropped me to 6 FPS. Screen resolution seemed to make no difference either.
(Was flying over Los Angeles at 3000ft alt.)

Once I get a power supply back in my signature computer I will try it again with screen shots.

I agree with you that the first set of screenshots we had were not very good quality. People posting them simply had no time enough to find the balance between graphics and performance, and when you just get a new sim, you just want to fly it before tweaking it Wink

But you should now have a look at those "What I've seen" posts, you may find them very interesting Wink (even I have to admit they do not contain much for the liner pilots).
