If you want a REAL challenge flightsimming try out MSFS 3.0 released in 1988. ;D


Check out those sexy 3D buildings! :D

It features FULL 3D! (well, sort of)

I still haven't figured out what those black lines on the ground are.

Can anybody guess this plane? (should be pretty easy)

EDIT - If anyone wants to try it out here's the link

Try pausing the game to let the scenery and textures time to be redrawn it might get rid of the jaggies.

Take the one with the shot of the C-150 (?), and slice it down the middle, then splice a sliced shot of an FSX C-150 (?) for contrast. :P

Looks like something out of 1972-- but it ain't. I can't believe simming was that crude just 20 years ago. Thank God for Bill Gates and them other really smart guys at Microsoft...
