No,  Not your nose. Grin Grin

Since one of our esteemed screen artists has had to switch to Xplane recently, I thought I would try to find a way for him to still get in on the fun here in the Studio.

So I present Pick It!  

One of the following shots is from Xplane and the other is from MSFS.
All you gotta do is pick which one is the MSFS shot. It may be easy this time.    Maybe not. Wink
But I can assure you, it will get harder in the future! Cool

PLEASE... if you see something that just obviously gives it away, don't post it, keep it fun for those who may not see it. Wink

Thanks to Jspahn for providing the Xplane shot. Smiley

You're kidding, right? I really had a hard time deciding on the FS shot.

And give the results I got it wrong ... I really need glasses Undecided

Thanks Harold!

Yes this one is a bit easy if you know what to look for, I did my best with the FS shot to capture the same look, but it is a bit obvious. Wink

Next time though... I won't make it so easy. Grin

I'm very happy with the results so far though. A nice close vote, that's what we were hoping for. Smiley

The answer will be revealed on Friday. Smiley

Their is one key difference that seperates msfs from x-plane. Took me all... 30 seconds to find it.

Ok, ok, it was a little too easy this time Grin Wink

The MSFS shot was #1, and it was from FS9! Cool

We've already got the next one cooked up for you eagle eyed simmers out there, and it won't be so easy next round. Cheesy

Thanks for playing Pick It!!

I saw the clouds too, but what stood out immediately were the ground textures

I would love to hear from some of the 10 people who thought it was shot #2. Smiley

The fact that that many people couldn't tell means that this worked, even though this one was a little easy.

Round #2 will be up monday after the new JC gets posted. Cool

I got it right too. Clouds is what gave it away. I've been looking at X-Plane 9. The clouds are not the greatest. I've got the demo downloaded. It's a whole new learning process.  Undecided If it's worth the time and effort.
