Default R.I.Pee -F-S-X-

anyone look at FSX lately and notice the dull 'indoor' lighting on the aircraft in direct sunlight, and laughable excuse for "ocean"? CloD kinda ruins FSX for me

wot's that @ 10 and 18 and 38 and 47 seconds in? and even the low altitude over water reveals the jerkiness of the sim

FSX always was alright at commecial airline height though... jitters terrain pops and heartache close to the ground though, z-fighting(?) with other aircraft and scenery objects

Even duct tape can't fix stupid... but it can muffle the sound.

Yeah OT got owned there xD... Naaaaa but CloD definately looks better, but if anything from your FSX experience got ruined so much it was gonna be a thread in this forum... I PERSONALY would have brought up the cockpits... (It is true though, from the video above, the lack of shadows effect are very noticable now even on the outside... )

As for the ocean, I'd say they both the same kind of... And in both I really hate to see clouds and airplanes being reflected so nicely on completely disturbed water... Looks nice, but VERY unrealistic.

i noticed that normally you dont see the sun as an sphere in the sea

but how small does it light have to be so it gets bounced off staright?
