can I get a couple of screen shots of KGSP? is the beginning of Runway 4 on top of a hill like its supposed to be?

Why not just go to the avsim forums.
Lots of topics on the ins and outs of FSX.

[shadows]

the system reqeurments are really that high you need 4gb of ram :|

[highlander]

You won't need 4 GB, I bet, but FSX should take advantage of it if you do.

Nope...FS-X will only use 2 GB of ram at max ! see => http://simflight.com/modules.php?name=Ne...e&sid=8242

So my impression that FS-X is far more GPU limited in contrast to FS9 being CPU limited seem to be correct, or what is your impression.

I found the support for Dual-core cpu's gave some performance boost wich was anihilated by the limitations of the graphics stuck to
DirectX 9.0

I wonder if that will improve with DX10 graphics available (finally sli support)

There are birds, herds etc in fsx. Like now in fs9, where you can control some ai planes, will it be possible in fsx to take control of let's say a
cow and walk it through europe, do some kind of milking tour?

[Anastasios]

hahahahahaha

[DBE]

Now THAT would be kinda nice..

Although I'm still attempting to get that can of Root Beer I found over at FS2004.COM airborne!

JayKae - have you tried making FsPassengers work using the FSX beta yet? If not, why not? If so, did it work out OK?

No, it does not work at the moment in FsX

How do the wildlife behave when you're flying nearby? Run and scatter, or just ignore you? If they do run and scatter, what happens
if you land and
park in the way of a migrating herd?

They just keep on walking, they do not scatter out of the way

What improvements can you see in the weather system?

Real weather seems to be better than in FS9 and cloud graphics have improved

Have you had much success getting FS9 payware aircraft to work in FSX? I know that FSX doesn't support FS98 (or prior) gauges,
which is understandable.

A few work without too many dramas but most have issues

Do AI aircraft make a decent amount of noise on external view? My big complaint with the sound environment in FS9 and FS8 was
that on external view,
even at a busy airport like Heathrow, there was no noise AT ALL, unless an aircraft passes you very close by on the way to the
gate/runway. How about
engine spool-up for take-off - any good?

No they do not make any more sound than in FS9, engine spool etc has got some great sound

Correct

@shadows

You don't need 4GB of RAM, that is just what my system has

[xhado13]

How many FPS you think an Nvidia 6800 PCI, 2 gigs of RAM, and a 2.80GHz would get you?

[JayKae]

I cannot tell you xhado, there is too many variables, it depends to a strong degree on how well you keep your computer and how many
services are running when you fly.

[xhado13]

hmm ok that makes sense lol. I dont run any programs while flying except for my firewall (Ive been getting attacked eek) maybe x fire..not
too much. I'am probably gonna uninstall another game on my computer so the only games I will have is FSX and AOE3

Propably a whole lot more than me, i'm having difficulty keeping the FPS a 2 digit number with FS9. (propably because of all my addons).

btw. If you are gonna show some screenies, some of Meigs, Chicago. Which has been a default starting place for ages, would be a must have screenies.

Edit: I just found out that Meigs Field has been closed and bulldozed in real life for a while now I had no idea.
So next question is: Is it still there in FSX or did they remove it like they did with World Trade Center?
If removed, i would still love to see how it looks like now, including the city.
