My first fs9 shots...

[Mazza]

so don't be harsh

Okay here we have a Beech Baron 58 taxing out to rwy 18 to head down to the city hope you like



Sorry 'bout the jaggies

[Layne.]

Pretty good! I recommend you get these add-ons

Waterzone

Airport Environment Upgrade 7 & 8

Vista Australis 1.5

FSSkyworld or Real Environment Pro

Or get some payware you like. Too bad about the jaggies, is it GFX Card incompatibility or is it just because your game loses lots of FPS??

Great to see you upgraded though! Once i get FSHost fixed i will fly with you in Australia a bit hey

[microlight]

Don't worry about the jaggies; they often remains a problem no matter how good your AA is. Composition's the thing.

Agree about Waterzone. Also, Soft Horizons (from Avsim) will remove that hard line between land and sky, giving a much more natural horizon transition.

As I don't live in Oz (and hardly ever fly there! Sorry, Layne) VOZ doesn't feature for me...

Cool thanks for the comments. And the jaggies are because of my ram 256 it is.... wa.

But i've got $115 dollars for my b-day so i'll get i one gig ram 8-)

[Layne.]

Sweet! Then you'll be able to get some good Shots with the AA on. I have no jaggies with my AA by the way microlight

[microlight]

Lucky you. I still get them on my creaky old system...

hmm, i would get a new graphics card over RAM for fewer jaggies. go to crucial.com to see which RAM modules (and in total how much you can handle) before anything

but yeh, its a nice shot... though maybe having it more angled at the nose/tail would give it better composition. i guess its a little bit unfortunate though, it seems that now is about the time that people are moving from FS9 to FSX  :-/

the jaggies are because of my ram 256.

I hardly post in freeware anymore but when I read this I just needed to ask "Who told you that?" Jaggies are not caused by a lack of RAM.
And if you have a 256 VGA card then there's something not quite right with your settings ...

If you must spend any money on RAM on that machine, I would look at getting a pair of matched 512 MB sticks and don't use the 'old' sticks anymore in that machine. I'll try to explain as simple as possible: Old RAM will 'run' slower than any new RAM you can get nowadays (same as with CPU's basically). If you use a combination of old and new RAM you will risk the chance of running the newer RAM at the speed of the slower RAM. Newer RAM will adjust itself to run at the slower speed of the older RAM, but not the other way around. If you do it that way it is pointless to buy the extra RAM ...

I was gonna say...RAM has nothing to do with Jaggies

Yeah ... I was always the faster one of us two

[machineman9]

well, the specs of YMMB's computer are:

128mb graphics card
256mb RAM

so harold, its not a 256mb VGA card... its half of that.
