Piper, I use the free ENBseries add-on to tweak the lighting effects. Nothing more than the out-of-the-box settings. It adds some more contrast and makes things look a little more lifelike. If to turn it off with the shortcut key (Shift-F12), default FSX looks quite 'Nintendo like' in terms of its colour palette. But here I can see the improvement in P3D screenshots where everything looks better still.
No worries Paul, and I don't read a great many threads here so missing some is easy. Ah, the tip tanks! I knew I'd forgotten to pack something before I left
It took some serious thought before committing to this epic journey, knowing how long it would take me, but I'm glad to have started it. Another a reason to keep on flying! It's also the reason why I decided not to buy Air Hauler 2; to avoid distractions. Plus, it's good to see how the Comanche will cope with all kinds of weather conditions and over a long series of flights. If I was flying it on random flights I wouldn't likely build up as many hours because there too many other aircraft in the hangar to distract me! (May that Constellation take a long time to come out of beta!)
I decided to start out with a fairly basic Comanche set-up. I expect to 'buy' a few upgrades along the way, including the tip-tanks, so I shall be arriving back in the UK with a top-spec model
Again, I thought it might be interesting to see how much of a difference some of the extras make to the performance.I'll let you know what Georgian dish we have, though it won't be for some weeks yet as we're off on holiday shortly. Time for a bit of real flying, unfortunately only in economy class though
