I havn't tried x plane yet but going on this it seems to give a good sence of speed unlike many flight sims. Shame about the graphics however, perhaps this will be addressed in future now that the title is becoming more popular....
It's a payware plane from Heinz Dziurowitz. you can find it at x-plane(.)org and going to their online store. It's an awesome plane, but then again all his planes are awesome!
the plane is from heinz durewiz available in the x-planedotorg sore.
@broncosdude. shure X-plane will work on your system. the graphic features are adjustable. and even with a lot of features "thinned out" i think it still is a great sim.
do you think x-plane 9 will run well with only 1gb of ram, i have been thinking of upgrading my ram to 4gb anyway on my macbook to 4gb for vmware, but do you think it will still run well on only 1gb?
I run it on 2.1 on my macbook. It runs just fine, even with the textures tuned up. The only problem is my trees flicker a lot (I think it's my video card) so I can't have them while I'm flying. Nor do I have those amazing water effects, but the water is due to my video card. Besides the tree problem, Still an AMAZING sim.
well not all planes have the 3d cockpits, the new vers 9 planes do, but still vers 8 birds work in vers 9. but most birds that you really fancy will have the 3d cockpit :) and yes x-plane pust alot less stress on your system.
oh ok, been to reno with my dad when he was a pit chief, and i remeber him telling me it that most of them had the merlins takin out or were so highly modified that they really were not merlins anymore, but yes shame on u :), hearing that thing roar around would be great!
shure. there is two basic ways - Long Runway: You make a fast landing on the main wheels, as seen in the vid. Short field: You make a threepoint landing with all wheels touching the ground at the same time and stalling just before they do so. If You come in fast make shure the tail doesnt drop, because that will cause the plane to rise again and bounce...
and take it easy on the brakes because hard breaking action will tip the plane over on the prop. Also be really careful to recognise any tendency to break to either side and counter steer it away quickly. taildraggers have the habbit of trying to overtake the mainwheel with the tailwheel...because the center of gravity is aft of the maingear.
No. But, the whole installation - if you are using the entire global scenery - is much bigger (around 80 Gig) but you dont have to install the whole world if you dont intend to fly in the taklamahan desert or whatever.. The actual system requirements are much less than for FSX. You will get A LOT! more Frames in X-Plane, compared to FSX on the same machine. The requirement are a little more than half of what FSX needs...
yepp! but, please hold your horses....make shure to not tell anyone. Noone is going to know...right?? After all, its only between you and me and the bedpost...isnt it?
Well I better put my bird in the truck now and split, before the officials start asking uncomfortable questions...see ya!!! :)
most definetely YES!. And You cant really compare the sims, because X-Plane has so many features that FSX doesnt have. Sloped runways that follow the terrain strukture, water refections that are just unbelievable...and and and to many to mention but MOST IMPORTANT!. The Flightmodel it is so much better. X-Planes spin and slip and behave very close to their realworld counterparts. You have to try it to believe it.
thanks guys, I am using the Pro Flight Range from Saitek. Two different systems one with Yoke, Throttle and Pedals. And another with a Stick, Throttle and Pedals. They perform very well and precisely.
maybe later i will add sound, as of now i post the vids straight as they come out of the sim. i dont want to alter the impression on the sim....so what you see is what you get ehm plus of course there is sound in the sim :)
I like that little snaredrum trumpet thingy that comes in at 0:48.

I have both and you are right. The frame rates are better. I only with X-plane had missions like FSX. I enjoy those

It looks so much faster than flight sim x. Is the video speeded up, is that why there is no sound
maxpower1870 3 years ago
it is original speed, the sensation of speed comes from flying very close to the surface..for the sound: pick the soundtrack that you like :)
sportpilot1971 3 years ago
Hey sportpilot do you find x plane better than flight sim x.
maxpower1870 3 years ago
Hi,
most definetely YES!. And You cant really compare the sims, because X-Plane has so many features that FSX doesnt have. Sloped runways that follow the terrain strukture, water refections that are just unbelievable...and and and to many to mention but MOST IMPORTANT!. The Flightmodel it is so much better.
