Yeah I know, I'm fairly new around here so yes the shot is great, but my pc res. was off the mark, but don't worry after looking at some of the other entry's and past winner's we'll get them jaggies under control. Far as labels goes, what's your point? It's the way these P 51's came.

Cool

I think they were refering to the multiplayer label over the front mustang.

Oh ok, I wasn't sure what label he was talking about, but the ID tag wasn't planned to be in the shot either, it just happened to be there, I was really trying to get the sun ray's in just the right spot. I'm brand new on here and this is my very 1st posting, so we learn as we go along Wink

Ok folks, so I looked into the screen res problem, changed my settings around at least to 10 different combinations and I still cant get that 100% crisp pic without the lil jags. Some of my add on planes show great without them jags while the rest don't. Anybody got any pointer on what to do or why that's happening? Huh

Welcome to SimV Capt. D........

Here's an informative thread on setting up your FSX: http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1197423715

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"

There's not too many things in my book that are cooler than a formation shot......you've definitely got a good start Wink

Well thank you very much Chuck for the kind words and I'm glad you liked the shot, means a lot to me coming from a senior member around here. I thought the ideal of this contest was to show the best screenshot you can with what you got to work with and not jazz it all up. Some of us here just don't have all that fancy PC hardware for the crystal clear pics like past winners do, I checked all your info out you sent me, made more changes and still no changes to screenshot res so till I can get better pc this is as good as it gonna gets!

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.
