I thought this would be about "Nine Dragons" crappy waste of time download. I almost had a heart attack when I found out that the last 2 files that I spent mad time downloading were absolutely defective peices of crap. The airport was the only thing downloaded the rest of the scenery left tubes and billboards were scenery textures should be!

Sorry for rambling on your thread But I am pissed and wanted to share my dread with the folks! Cry

The download I got was for fsX only. I believe 9 Dragons is for fs9 and am not sure how it would run in fsX. Looking at Shane's posting a few weeks back is what got me interested in Hong Kong scenery downloads. 9 Dragons looks like the best free download ever made for Hong Kong, I am just uncertain of how it will perform in fsX. The one I linked to is the only free Kai Tak scenery download I could find on the internet for fsX.

Well, its a nice shot.

Don't mean to be a nitpicker, but that scenery in the screenshot is actually the payware FlyTampa Kai Tak. Can tell by the runway edge textures, the jutting lights, and the buildings which have some distinct reflectivity about them.

Cheers,

That makes sense. Roll Eyes

Being Kai Tak and in the Freeware section, I naturally thought it was FS9. Wink

The water kind of had me fooled too. I've never seen the FSX water look like that before. Huh

All right, I'll say it...

That is defiantly Flytampa's VHHX. You can tell by the slight runway markings. Their are those weird things between the land and water. Also those buildings are defiantly FT and the runway has reflections witch is not in 9D. Wink

Also the plane is the overland 737-700. Wink

This belongs in payware

My bad Much apologies just had a crumby day and it just frustrated me wasting all that time downloading it to get nothing but 2 defective downloads. I will look on the other comment I wrote. Thanks! Cool

Its only in your mind, strong mind, strong soul and nobody can take that from you!

What gives that away? Just curious, I've never seen the overland model.

I'm surprised that this shot, as a Monthly Contest entry wasn't spotted with all of this payware sooner. Roll Eyes

You guys are slipping...

You're normally on these kind of things like hawks. Wink
