Cool can't wait to see this beauty in action in FSX :-)

Have some surprises too also on the graphics field ;-)

Thanks for sharing,

Cheers,

if u look at the background scenery, dosent it remind you of some 1998-2000 graphical advances, compared to what we have today, i think FSX is a real let down

but I still think the Leveld 767 is amazing.. a technical achievement.. microsoft suck, FSX sucks, full stop. no argument

BTW is it possible to lighten up the cockpit a bit for night, like the orange lights?

sarcasm!!! god meanie pants! lol

anyway i meant the inside of like the glass thingy, and if you look at the overhead panel the buttons are lighted orange right or is that what the camera is seeing?

Like the PMDG 747 has; the yellow where the numbers are in the nav or other radios, do you know what i mean? LEVEL D just has the black background...

thats for day?

One last question; how are the FPS looking in FSX with LEVEL D (i asked this b4)

well I just got a brand new system:

motherboard: Intel Q965 Vpro
CPU: Intel Core 2 duo E6600
RAM: 2GB DDR2 667GHz
hard drive: 300GB SATA II (7200Rpm)
grapic card: Nvidia GeForce 8800GTX PCI-E 768MB
soundcard: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Fatal1ty FPS - 7.1

And as I remember last I played the Demo with all sliders as much to the right as possible I had about 15FPS when I flew over places with alot of traffic or trees and that stuff but 27FPS on the ground (looked awesome!) but after what I found out FSX also looks awesome at medium high! Where I almost had 27FPS all the time. I don't have the full version off FSX yet but I'm sure I would get it  because the future add-ons would be for FSX but I don't know yet what I'll do

Giving average numbers is totally subjective and will differ from system to system, so it really doesn't tell you much to say that I am getting anywhere from 15 to 25 fps while running the 767 for FSX. I did give you my computer specs above. I am also running an nvidia 6800 GS (256mb) video card.

I can say what MS has said: start FSX with the sliders FULLY to the LEFT and slowly start increasing your settings until you are happy with the results. Placing sliders fully to the right and reducing is not recommended. AI trafiic is a huge hit on framerates, as are detailed clouds and autgen scenery.

Yes, we are testing.

Alright thanks if your using it on that and getting 15ish FPS then i have nvidia 7500LE, and also 1 gig and intel dual core 1.6GHZ processer, so i think ill be fine

Thanks for the info!

Wow, Wade, 2 posts in one day!

I second that! why do you try to make your own MSFS! (meaning " my stupid flight sim") lol

hehe good idea Daryl

Anyway FSX is nice with Medium low/high settings! I would call it FSX with almost same graphic as FS9 but with alot of new features!  And a little less FPS

I'm diffently not beeing pushed away from FSX!

This is taken from an article:

Now MS changed the game. Flight Simulator needed to get on the same level as other games. It needed to be visually more attractive,
more game-like so it would attract a new group of customers. That also means the hardware specs could be lifted to what is mid to high
end now and low to mid range 12 months from now. Microsoft made the right choice, do not blame them if you can’t run the game on full
blast. FSx is NOT slow, it is just big and complex software.

Daryl, I just LOVE that livery! Varig Forever 

The plane looks Wonderful! I reaally cannot describe it with words.. oh god, my favourite aircraft in my favourite livery?!



Cheers,
Eduardo

Daryl will the beauty have bump maps and fresnal and specular maps and DDS because I want to surprise you all here ;-)
Almost forgot we could add light effects to the VC during the day in FSX

DShutt wrote: Well, funny you should ask... when I posted those screens it looked like that was the way we were going. BUT... In the final release version of the SP1, MS ACES added backward FS9 lighting compatibility for FSX... so, in an effort to get the 767 for FSX airborne, not sure what the status of lighting capability for the 767 for FSX is at this time. More when the 767 for FSX is released.

Ok thanks will wait the release :-) yes notice that one too regarding FS9 lightning ;-) prefer the new way regarding graphics :-)

Looks Nice!
