heesung, what no topless sunbathers at TNCM? It's been ages since I've dabbled with FS9. I don't have patience for my s****y landings.

flyboy 28,
I have downloaded AISmooth before. But MSFS needs to address this problem. We shouldn't have to download a program as MS should have addressed this issue a few versions ago. AISmooth is a good alternative until MS does something about it.
heeshung,
About the Sun and shadows in Raining cloudy weather. I usually turn off the aircraft and building shadows when the weather is bad in FS unfortunately the lightsource is still there. Maybe the next FS will ahve this issue.
Matt,
Yes I LOVE the russian stuff :) Really anything old but particularly the old russian stuff.
Even in FSworld Russian aircraft are STILL have the occational "Problem"

There is a way to turn off the shadows but like the rest of it . Its a compromise. Its either on or offOriginally Posted by heeshung
I couldnt agree with you guys more about the ATC , the lack of a proper cloud deck . Ive flown FS online with VATSIM and while it's more reliable , there isnt always coverage where you are and not always traffic. ( I like seeing other aircraft around )
Thats true,
Once you turn off the shadows you will want to turn it back on once you are in "sunny" conditions. Scenery shadows and aircraft shadows.
Heres a good example I have of being above a cloud deck and being able to see the ground. This is just silly. You will see the ground and the runway untill your aircraft is actually below the cloud desk and then u are thrust into IMC.
The first shots shows a AI aircraft above the cloud deck.
The second shot shows me in the cloud deck. Its really annoying how you can see the outline of the airport fence no matter the conditions. The only time you cant see it is when you are below the cloud. Inj IMC and cant see the runway yet?..just follow the fence!

VATSIM Report:
Stayed up until 1:30AM waiting for CAL395 to arrive. Finally did, and I will proudly say I greased that landing.
Touched the tip of North Korea; good thing they didn't notice! :P

Some shots:
Gosh dang, these look horrible on a 1024x768 screen.
Wow nice shot there. You flew over where I lived South Korea, Seoul :)
Was that an AI plane or was that actually you flying. You said you stayed up to 3am to watch 1:30AM waiting for CAL395 to land.
I flew to North Korea in the Sim one time. The main airport has a really strange set up to it.
You can always resize them down to 1024. Thats what I do when I run at a higher res. Plus it would help us see the whole image without having to scroll.
Oh SHNAP!!! I think I broke the plane!!!
Check out those skid marks int he 3rd shot :) I take my planes to the limit without makig the sim detect a crash.
Senga
Whooaaaa!!! I love those angles! But, where did you left wheel go? :P
That was my plane. I was doing a VATSIM flight and I wanted to have that in the logs, so I decided to wait it out for it to reach Tokyo.
Yeah dude, you broke that plane :)
heeshung,
Witch shot are you talking about the YAK or the A319? Thats pretty cool you can use Vatsim for tracking your flight. If I wnated to would I be able to see it as you are flying?
Lezam,
Yea I know how to give them a good work out! My passengers got rocked on that one.
I hope in the next Sim than they have more defined structural damage. Like hard landings, better wing damage flap , gear etc. It be nice to see some animated failures too.
Check out these shots that we had in a photo thread.

I was talking about the Spirit, but that applies to the Yak as well.
And yes, you would be able to see the flight in real-time on that site. It constantly updates, and shows speed, altitude, etc.
Oh ok,
Yea the YAK had a "Hard" landing. I took off again the left main gear would not go retract back into the wheel well. It wouldn't be much fun to land with the other 2 extended so I went around again and landed with on the one Main down :) Of course after I landed and the nose hit the runway and the right win diped the aircraft swung off the runway and went though the fence and ended up on the forest :)
If you have anymore shots post them in that thread I put up. Id like to see.

I had AI smooth for a while , It's not perfect but it works to a certain degree. I noticed in heavy traffic areas some aircaft slowing down unrealistically. I guess my biggest pain when it comes to AI is the Intelligence isnt always apparent. Like when you follow FS ATC's absurd vectoring onto final and in the end they still stick another aircraft in close proximity to me . If youre using something like Active Sky , and have the wake turbulence effect on. You can get turned upside down pretty quickly.Originally Posted by heeshung
Senga, have you ever tried out fspassengers? Its pretty cool, gives you a passenger opinion and also tells you your feet per second on landing. Lots of fun!
I've been having fun flying the new Feelthere E-Jet - I've been having problems with my video card looking like crap ever since I updated my drivers. So to salvage the photos I've been using watercolors on my photos which I have always thought adds a cool touch.

Didn't want to imbed these since they are 1280 not 1024

This one is probably 2 years old but still cool to look at.

Senga,
There is a real time flight tracker ( sort of ) its called Servinfo Version 2.02 is the current one http://avsim.com/hangar/utils/servinfo/home.htm
