Ill agree with the fact that this Vulcan will, hopefully tip the balance towards the :000: side...
Chris, I emailed Paul Frimston this morning with my suggestions, so hopefully he will forward them on to you. He said that what I had suggested was being looked at anyway.Yep, I did see mention of an SP1 too...

This is a plane that just had to be done for FSX, and I'm so pleased it was a developer of Iris' caliber that took it on board.

CHEERS

That looks pretty much like the system I had prior to this one. In my case it was a P4 3.4 Ghz chip with dual processors (but not dual core) and a 256 Mb 6800 GS GFX card.

It ran FSX OK but not all sliders were full right obviously but even that was a lot better visually than FS2004. The water and much better VCs in FSX make up for any drop in FPS plus 20 FPS in FSX is super smooth and more than usable. The big thing that improved that rig was adding SP2/Accel and making sure I upgraded DX9c to the latest version as both of those gave me a huge leap in performance.

Yep, Chris, I saw his thread...

Pretty much covers my thoughts. More detail round the circular side windows; rubber seals, any riveting holding the window frames, some impression of the thickness of the canopy...all that sort of thing.

Cheers matey ! :)

I'm definitely in Skywalker mode. I'm downloading the demo to see how that fares. :000:

Don't waste your time mate as its a totally different beast after SP2 so really not a good test ;-)

Obviously I read your post after I ran the demo. I was actually quite impressed as to how it ran on my system so an investment may be made soon. With the addition of SP2 of course.
