Flight of the Globemasters

I was just checkin out the Poskey C-17 in Fs9.

Thought you might enjoy some of these.

[Rifleman]

I love the plane, but those clouds leave a bit to be desired........I think they are just a bit too cleanly defined, but then thats a personal thing I guess......

[ramsa329]

Yeah you're probably right #9 I'll have to reduce the slider from max down to something more logical.

Or maybe I'll have to use the 2D clouds instead of the 3D clouds.

That's probably it    ::)

[Rifleman]

I can't put my finger on it, but they look somewhat flat ?......I've seen you post much better clouds than that before.....is this 2004 ?

[ramsa329]

Yes it's Fs9.

Probably has something to do with the video card or the machine itself.

Here's my specs maybe someone has a suggestion:

Dell XPS 3.2 GHZ HT 800MHZ FSB
2 120 Gig HDDs Serial ATA Raid 0
ATI Radeon 9800/Catalyst 3.4
1 Gig DDRAM 400

All sliders to the max including AI

Frames at around 50-60 but I limit to 20

do we have to advice Ramsa when it comes to the visual stuff? i guess not!

anyway, very good shots! i love that plane...i guess it's from Posky right?

by the way Ramsa, you have a damn fast CPU!  8)

Thanks to all of you for your replies and to #9 who made me take a look at the cloud situation.

Challenge is a good thing and I'm sure that I'll have some surprises for you all.

[swanny338]

awesome

[Rifleman]

We all expect nothing but the best of graphic presentation from you Ramsa..........I know I won't really be surprised at what you can do to address anything which looks out of place on your images........  ;D

[torquestripe]

I toured one of those things when it was the YC-15, mid 1970s.

They did'nt get any prettier in the transition to C-17 though.

Great shots I must admit.

[BFMF]

Very nice!

[Crumbso]

Nice shots Ramsa haven't heard from you for a while.

Am I right in saying that is an FSDS v1 design? Does that mean that FSDS v1 desiigns work in COF?

With the clouds it may be the weather sheme.

[Jaffa]

I am sure that there will be some wonderful cloud addons once the sdk is released!

Great shots!

[ruekesj]

great shots ramsa!  the cloud issue i think is point of view.  sometimes in real life situations at higher altitudes clouds tend too look 2-D, depending on how the light hits them.  by the way,  i'm having a little better luck with the 45.23 drivers in acof.
