Is that the Eurowings model?

Yes, and Garry Russell's textures.

The 146 looks great in those clothes

Pity the same can't be said for the 'As Real as it Get's' water textures :roll: I wonder if FSX will be more real than As Real as it Get's :think:

Nice shots Toby

FSX water looks awful.

These shots are from a game released last year called Silent Hunter III. It's a WW2 sub sim.

This is how FSX water and sky textures should be, but it's beyond MS and it's team of idiots.

That shows it there CB

As the edited screen shot thread proves..we can get the aircraft to look real until you get a face full of MS scenary and FS.X just seems and improved version of something that needs replacing, but instead we are given a more refined cartoon. :huf:

I'm gonna call it Flight Sim Arcade from now on because it certainly doesn't deserve the simulator name.

Hi Guys

I agree with Chris about the Silent Hunter III water.

Pacific fighters is even better than that as it does not do the repeditive tile thing like SH does.

Nise one Garry & Toby on that 146.

Rick
