Well guys, i guess youve been waiting with baited breath for the Tomcat to appear a la F.S.X. chez todayshorse......or maybe you havent

Well anyway, heres a few i took whilst checking out this fantastic FSX F-14. Oh yes, fantastic. Fan-tastic. Fan-daby-dozy. Fabulous. F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C.

More to come i guess, now i have some carriers, but anyway, enjoy

"Good morning, gentlemen, the temperature is 110 degrees."

"I flew with your old man. VF-51, the Oriskany. You're a lot like he was. Only better... and worse."

"I gotta send somebody from this squadron to Miramar."

"Started up on a 6, when he pulled from the clouds, and then I moved in above him."

Thanks for looking. The pattern is full.

Top of that page. I guess you need FSX and Acceleration for this

how did you get that water?

I don't know why MS will release "Flight" I can't figure it out more realism than this?

outstanding shots ! very impressive!

Er....i use FS Water Confibulator Configurator, i forget which setting. I have all the sliders on the left hand side of the FSX settings screen (mesh, and all that) on full, including water. Its not so good close up however! A bit of distance and its stunning

My main concern is however the sky. I cant quite get that hazy foggy look in the distance like i could with Fs9 which made it look so real... Even at its lowest, 60nm is too far in my opinion

I guess i need to play with the weather a bit more

do you have the fsx adapted HDE sky?
that may help...

[gtirob01]

Lookin great Simon! Be aware there are plenty of top notch paints for this bird out there, you will not be disappointed.

For your horizon and such, right now all REX products are half price... single best addon you will ever buy!

[todayshorse]

Yes HDE was the first thing i installed (adapted for fsx)

REX? Hmmm is it really that good though? what will i lose? I like my water and clouds as they are really!!!

Put Visibility at about 10 Miles.  I'm about to post a hawaiin tour photo thingy in the screenshoty showcase so you can see what it turns out like.  Not too foggy, not to far-seeing, and it boosts framerates like a dream.

The water waves/reflections look like default.
What make the water look so good is the photorealistic texture below those waves. And if I'm not misaken, this is the bay right next to Bowerman airport, in the freeware OrbX PNW demo.

Great shots, I can't decide which one I prefer between the last two !

In case you didn't know, there is an upgraded sound set and HUD for it.

[todayshorse]

Yes, i have those It apparently (the HUD) will guide you to the aircraft carrier, so i need to try that one....

[Ziggy]

In a word, "breathtaking". Simply amazing photo-real screenies. It is difficult to find such detail at any price. Thanks for sharing both the images as well as the link. Aces all around mate............. Ziggy
