Hey Guys, Wishing you Guys a nice day.

     Before I get started with my questions, I just wish to express my appreciation for this forum.  I just tried wading through the Avsim forum and while it's very nice, this forum sure has them beat.  [ sorta get turned around easy]

     My questions concern the add-on  " X Graphics ".    I've looked at all the screenshots they had and others I've found elsewhere ,  most with a magnifying glass.   Really studied them.  This appears to be a really good product to enhance my scenery in FSX.   

     Does  " X Graphics"  work everywhere is the world ?  or is it  just in certain areas of FSX that it works ?   Example of what I'm getting at :   As I do most of my "flying"in Alaska,  would "X Graphics" also work there ?   Do anyone have a "hands-on"  experience  in such remote areas ?   

     While I do have a decent PC, how is it on the frame rates ?   Is it a real hard hit ?

     I would like to know what some of you think of the program as I'm considering buying it.  Like most of you Guys, we've got to be careful where the money goes as my money tree is suffering in the drought. Smiley      Sure do thank you for your input and time helping me .

X graphics is simply a texture booster if im not mistaken. It works around the entire FS World and adds textures for the sky and ground and water (if im nto mistaken Grin ) It will not enhance scenery just enhance your experiance Roll Eyes

Good morning, hope you Guys have a nice day.

     That's interesting what you just posted.  How often is it that while "we" fly that we see "repeat" tiles  and straight as an arrow shore lines and roads  only to get so discouraged that we don't wish to return to " THAT " area again ?????   

     Would this program enhance or "remove" such terrible sights from our flying experience ?  Any program that would do "THAT" would be worth it's weight in  something or other - - clouds - - whatever   Wink     "THAT" sight just blows the whole evening and really hits on a raw nerve.   

     How about it - - - some input please.

                   Have a good one,      caveman
