Shots from new system

[Dannyboy]

These are some shots from my new system, they have only been resized. I have to see how my screenshots look before I enter the screenshot contest- which there is some tough competition in so far.















Happy flying  8)  ;D

Here is the screenshot that did not make it on the first posting - I hope lol

Nice pics Danny! I love that second one!

Nice, I'm gonna upgrade to a similar setup soon except with 1GB of DDR333 and a GeForce FX6800 gc. It will be home built like all of my PCs. I'm sure the framerate improvement will be great as it probably was for you. What were your previous system specs?

[Dannyboy]

Thanks CHOMP_ROCK, yes my frame rates are much better, up to 100 pfs but I have it set at 70 fps and it runs well at that. My former system was a Dell P4 - 1.7GHz processor, 512 ram, 40 gig harddrive, 128 GeForce graphics and 15in. monitor. However the frontside buss was only 100 mhz and the memory speed is 130mhz, so it has a fairly fast processor but with a slow buss and memory speed it struggled at best.

I re-uploaded the pic that did not load, I will give it one more try, fingers and toes crossed for luck lol

Your previous system wasn't too shabby! You must have more money on hand than I do . Here's the pic that would not load:
The extension was .JPG not .jpg, it is case sensitive.

ok, thx

[alrot]

I don't know what plane it its,but is carring i think the Venezuelan flag and begin with YV-669C,see we also have a gulfstream planes here
 nice shots,Dannyboy

[chomp_rock]

Definitely a Gulfstream, I think it is a GV. I don't see many Gulfstreams though so it could be either a GV or GIV.


Upon lookup of YV-669C I found that it is a Cessna Caravan! lol!

[Dannyboy]

Yes that is a Gulfstream V from Lider Designs - www.liderdesigns.com. I found it at Flightsim.com
If you download it, it would be a good idea to change the aircraft config file; change the engine static thrust rating from the 9220 to 15385 lbs of thrust, and turn on the yaw damper gain to read 1 instead of 0. Then she flies real nice. With the thrust rating of only 9220 she does not want to keep up her speed while climbing to cruise altitude, and this one will go up to 50000 ft altitude real easy and cruise there real well.  8)  ;D
