FSX cloud shadows

[Niclas 127]

Seems like nothing is impossible...

I'm seriously considering to abandon DX9 right now... (which is a big deal for me. Long time ENB Series user here. :tongue: )

Of course you shall abandon DX9!..there is many benefits with DX10, visual improvements, better performance, better VAS usage etc. I also used ENB before which I thought I never could live without..but thanks to SweetFX (DX10 compatible) you can have the same effects as ENB, link here https://sfx.thelazy.net/games/game/136/

 

 

Lookin' good. Not P3D good, but not too bad for FSX.

Expected comment from a P3D user  :rolleyes:

If you think FSX even with these added, and rather broken shadows looks better than P3D then the joke is firmly on you.  :Applause:    

 

Cool colors you managed to get as well

:Applause: Applause to another fantastic simmer who knows best. As a FSX user, I must say I know best, so the you joke is firmly on you  :Big Grin: , especially after your comments and your screenies I've seen,,

 

Ps. my colours are not supposed to bee cool ..how old are you?

[grammar police on] Well yes! You two guys are indeed scrapping aren't you [grammar police off]

 

Each sim has its own merits as we all know. Yes P3D is an improvement and will be more so if/when it migrates to 64bit. However, it's good that fsx is still getting these little extras; FS9 is still soldiering on and looking great, so why don't we all just go fly (virtual aviate!)?

Maybe, but If you do not have something better to say in my post, please be silent  :wink:   .

100 % agreed on this, end of discussion "which is the best sim"!

The only thing holding me back is the enormous time I'll certainly spend to get the visuals I want -- again. :tongue:

When I start it, I won't stop until I'm satisfied -- and this can take weeks... or months, haha. I want to fly the upcoming PMDG 747 before going back to the "tweak" time.

Now that DX10 is getting shadows I wonder if Cumulus X! will display properly and create usable thermals? http://www.luerkens.homepage.t-online.de/peter/ for the budding glider pilots..

 

I'll hopefully get some cloud shadows in the new year when I should have the spare cash. Ah, first world problems!

This sounds like me so I understand you very well   ..it took months for me to get a realistic visual appearance after changing to SweetFX

I really hope you can :wink: ..I mean, who can live without cloud schadows he he   (another first world problem)

 

Some more shots, this time from my relatively newly made scenery over Gran Canaria:

It still amazes me that 10+ year old video game software still exceeds the visual quality of multi-million dollar Full Flight Simulators running TROPOS 6000 or VITAL 1100.
