You've got some really good shots here but the jaggies hurt it ALOT.

Turn on the AA and you will have some great shots. 8-) Nice clouds.

Welcome Back! :)

The beauty of FS 2004, is that it will run smoothly on something as simple as a Sinclair Spectrum/Timex Computer....;)... ;)... ;D...!

Have fun in our neck of the woods... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

If your system can't handle it for flying, at least turn it on for the shots.

Thanks for the comments!!

I wish I could be able to turn AA on... but this "nice" GFX card doesn not support AA... good old Intel 950...  :-/

I was pretty amazed by the quality of the clouds, too, considering they're the default clouds. I haven't even tried to install any addons, since I really doubt my netbook would support the extra load.

Definitely, Fozzer! You know, I even tried FSX on this thing, and even though it ran at about 13 fps, it was with practically every slider to the left. I was able to increase the bitmap quality, but nothing more. 0 autogen, 0 traffic, 0 effects... not worth the trouble.
FS9, on the other hand, is giving me a somewhat more pleasant experience, with some traffic, some autogen.. just enough to make it a bit more vivid!

And, again, what really surprises me, is to be able to do it on an Intel Atom CPU!!! I'm really getting in love with this little thing!  8-)


Thanks again for the comments!

cheers!
