Is it possible to make Payware allowed? Kiss

For this theme, No. If REX for FS9 were out now, it would be different. But as I see it, there is no payware or freeware water for FS9 that could stand up to it. For the remainder of the themes though, payware will be allowed, as I feel that there is enough payware-quality freeware to go head to head in both sims and have an equal chance. Wink

Wink

Do remember, that having REX is not only dependant on the sim, but computer spec and financial issues as well Wink

Wink

Strictly freeware is IMO fine, there are a ton of great freeware planes out there.

And my Team X entry, a classic 'Anxyous' Cheesy

Cheesy

4096 water, Snow Dog Tours scenery and default Goose

I was thinking, perhaps shots should be anonymous for the next round, so the judges won't know what sim they're looking at either?

But we would need to know what team they're on.

Shane would collect all shots, and post them in a single post. They would be numbered, and he would know which shots were of which sim

Who gives a rip if REX for FS9 isn't released? Payware should be allowed anyways. Roll Eyes

Anyways if payware was ALLOWED this would be my entry.

FS9 FTW!
Taken on my fossil of a computer running windows 7. and since my graphics card is so old i can't access the CCC to control the AA so this was taken using the in-game AA.

FS9 in all it's glory.

As for REX making FSX look unstoppable don't forget that Active sky ground environment and flight environment can enhance FS9 so I would say the competition is rather even.

My REX claim is with the Water only, personally, I still think the REX skies look weird, but the water looks spectacular. Which is also what this theme is centered around. Until they release REXFS9, I don't know of any water replacer for FS9 that looks that good. Really tips the scales for this one, as for everything else, I think there is a great balance between the two sims and their payware/freeware addons.

The original Xvs9 allowed no payware at all for all 5 themes, so I think skipping just one this time around isn't asking too much. Maybe this is why they didn't allow it back then. Grin

As for anonymous entries, if I can tell the difference in the sim, then surely others can. FSX and FS9 look so different, I don't see how they could be mistaken for each other. Wink

Actually I haven't, but if you say it's good, then that's a solid enough recommendation for me. Wink

Up to now, I've been using Holger's freeware water combo. and occasionally the VOZ1.8 set. But after seeing the REX for 9 shots at their site, my fingers are tapping waiting for it, from the screens they show, it looks just like the FSX version. Shocked

But now I need to go check out Flight Enviromnet. Cheesy
