If that is FSX, I will eat my arm.

Looks like we would have realistic AI traffic companies.

I'm pretty sure we discussed this earlier, but I can't completely remember. I believe that video is pretty old and is just a demonstration of some of the new things that could be in FSX, but it's not FSX itself.

Thanks for ruining the moment.

I'm really sorry.

I think it is a look at what FSX will look like because it was a demonstration of the graphics engine if I'm not mistaken, so I would still expect many of those things to be in FSX.

Even if this isn't FSX, but some features that could be included, looks amazing :o

even though it isn't a FSX video, I would like to see traffic that dense with major airports.

It isnt FSX, or even related. It is a commercial aviation simulator that is used for training. There is another thread that I posted on earlier with the same clip. Ms is aware of this company, but pointed out numerous things that FS does better. One main point that they wanted to address was the weather. MS wants better representation of weather from the stations, true 0/0 fog, better transition between stations, and overall improvement of display (ie framerates). Todd

To add to what cavity said, it's a program called Tropos (or maybe Tropos is the company...something like that.) MS mentioned things like a lot of the parts aren't animated etc.
