Sorry for the sharp edges, my nvidia geforce 6150SE doesn't like AA at all.
First **Official** screenshot with my new computer and hopefully I will get a new graphics card soon. 8-)
Hope you like ;)

I was messing around with Real Environment Pro and decided to put the runway textures on snowy and go fly in Denver but, I forgot about the whole "going to denver" part and did a regional flight from PHIL to PHLI and noticed when arriving in Honolulu that the runways were are icy so that kind of made me not put the runway in there. ;D Yes, the jaggies are bad but aren't as bad as you think. I was also on a great glideslope so I actually touched down in the Touchdown zone...but not on the line, crosswinds were very strong for a small jet.

Great shot but you really need AA.  ;) When your new computer comes lets see what you could put out.

not bad, but you sure are too low. you should be crossing the threshold at 50 feet AGL, flaring somewhere over the numbers and touching down further on.

;D Believe it or not I touched down after the touchdown zone but I agree, way low.

Edit: D'oh, I forgot I messed with the nvidia control panel it set the 3D settings to performance, that could explain the tough jags. :D

And this is FS9 in honolulu with AA and filtering up and my graphics card AA maxed. Looks nice, doesn't play nice though. I cut the framerate out so all could see.

My regular framerate is steady 20 and 15 in super dense areas. (Without AA mind you.)

Well it's better than what I'm getting right now due to FS9 being a bitch...I don't get anymore than 1FPS around London...Very weird... :D
