Hey!

Started a new Iberworld A320 Repaint for the IFDG. What you thinking so far? (Still missing a few things as WIP)

http://i220.photobucket.com/albums/dd311/thebigman48/Iberworld_Wholefuse_rightcopy.jpg

Cheerz.

[xxMATTGxx]

Well i want dirt :P

[Scania]

Well i want dirt :P

The aircraft I'm painting from doesn't really have much dirt on it. Which is what you paint from, the aircraft.

BTW I should add this is 100% hand painted.

[fweggy]

llooks good :)

[jesus]

very nice well done :)

[Recursion]

DIRT PLEASE! :D

[xxMATTGxx]

And? You can still add dirt on it.

[Scania]

And? You can still add dirt on it.

I wasn't disputing a fact that you couldn't. Stop saying dirt.. I want comments on the overall paint. It is a WIP afterall.

DIRTDIRTDIRTDIRTDIRTDIRTDIRT

Haha, well done =]

[Scania]

Hmm we dont see any of you making repaints with dirt on them, never mind repaints at all.

There was nothing well done about saying DIRTDIRTDIRT like a parrot.

[Dan!]

Adam why dont you just say they were all 'test standard' :P

NO, because that would not be true sorry but adam only got test standard when i said about him being put forward for his solo OTS check

[cocaine]

funny we're on the subject about repeating things like a parrot, you've told us three times now you're moving on to another forum? contradiction much.

As far as I know, your repaints are good. Try a commerical jet though? Something simple like a Swiss Air? I saw Mykes BBJ aswell not long ago. He's getting good. Far more better colors on that anyway.

Matt, I said I was only here to show repaints, and thats what I'm doing.

"thanks tucker, im not going back to hxf"

To be honest, Sam shouldn't be posting anyway since he did say that above. Its up to him to post his simple repaints and all but we want dirt.

I'm more than happy to put dirt on it.. It was just really a basic preview of what is was going to be. Like the kind of 'base'

We try out hardest :)

[iAdam]

I plan my own routes using the default route planner, I get all the frequencies and fly by inputting the frequencies in the NAV1 box and following the needle, takes some practice but is very realistic.

actually its not realistic at all, id say about 85% of all aircraft now (excluding VFR) use FMCs to fly with, no with GPS or whatever.

[Warezkid2]

Any chance of a keygen?

It's actual instrument flying not GPS, it's the way you should do it.

I like it, London looks cool :)

Fields look sooooooooooooooooo much more realistic and rivers/lakes are in the right places, and shaped the same as real!!!

http://www.flightsimhelp.com/field%20lol.PNG

[Liberation]

Damn, may have to get this. I tried downloading GE yesterday but doesnt work. So may get UT today, although it has like 20 links which is rather annoying.

Any more pictures, Adam?

[Adam!]

Ground Environment is good, better than UT I think - Both combined = Sexual.

I'm snapping away now!!

Uses google earth images..

This is the oil place just behind Humberside, restricted flying zone for GA aircraft, always warnings about it on the charts etc.. I didn't expect to see it here! :o

http://www.flightsimhelp.com/ooo.PNG

[Liberation]

Wow, really does look good. more shots would be great! :]

[Adam!]

Messes up my post if I try and add more... So yeah lol.

Skegness.. Not as detailed as other places, like London, but it's all in the correct place and looks fairly realistic!!! (I've seen it from the air before, looks pretty much the same)

http://www.flightsimhelp.com/skeggy.PNG

I'm departing to Humberside Airport in real life now to go flying and stuff, so I'll post more later.

[Luke]

I've just installed FSX after upgrading my video card to a 256mb one.

The quality is awsome, io find it very cool :)

But on peoples shot's the quality of the planes seem's better, is it my plane or FSX, as the plane quality is set to ultra high ;)

Luke

[xxMATTGxx]

Take a shot and post it would help as well. But also look in your graphics card options and look at the AA / AF features and higher them up.

[Dan!]

Ground Environment Pro is rubbish tbh

[Luke]

ok, well i can't find a graphics card config (it's just an intel gma 950 btw) but here's some screenshot's, i'm using the default aircraft as example.

It would be your GFX card. Can you confirm the full type of your card, as for FSX to run well, you are going to need a good card :]

[xxMATTGxx]

LOLLLLL. Oh, c'mon. You can't seriously be saying landing a 777 on a game is much harder than real life? So all these FS geeks who play on it for 20 hours a day can fly better than a pilot who has been through courses and is qualified?

[Recursion]

The way that some of the models aren't so realistic and are harder to control than in real life then yes. If you were on a plane and both pilots were dead would you pick someone with no experiance at all or someone who has played flight sim on VATSIM?

[Recursion]

Nice (y)

Me and Matt recently did another flight, here is my VATAWARE: http://www.vataware.com/flight.cfm?id=895567

True, the person who has played Flight Simulator would probably have more knowledge than the other people but that doesn't mean to say that Flight Sim is harder than real life. You couldn't just go onto a 777 after playing Flight Sim for hours on end and then fly it, perfectly with a perfect landing. You need experience with the aircraft and you need to go on courses etc. If you didn't, why would they have all the courses and such? They'd just stick em on Flight Simulator for 24 hours.

Yeah, I know some pilots practise on Flight Simulator but that doesn't mean you can become an expert pilot from using Flight Sim.

Did I say they could fly the aircraft better? - I just said flight simulator is harder than landing in real life, which it is.. I didn't say you could land a plane in real life, it's just easier because everything is there to touch without using a mouse etc!

Depends on their age, anything below 15, ish, then I'd be weary..

Again, I didn't say that - It's just EASIER in real life to land, most people on here wouldn't have a clue when they stepped in a real plane anyway - Thats not to say its major difficult to land that aircraft.

[Adam!]

East Midlands pffffft, boring!!

How about you all fly for my validation at Manchester on Thursday from 1930z onwards.

[iAdam]

Hehe, I'll fly in... with an engine fire.

Not without the permission of the examiner or you'll just get removed from VATSIM lol.

[Decode]

How do i use it?? i want to program it so it shows me how to get from 1 airport to another.

[Liberation]

I personally dont use the GPS, but just head into Flight Planner, select both your locations, check IFR and click FIND ROUTE. Then go through all that process, and once airbourne, hit NAV whilst AP is engaged and it should work :]

Sorry if that is wrong, im just doing it from memory.

Fair enough, flying maybe harder but I'd say landing and taking of is the hardest part of flying a plane, the rest of it is just autopilot - correct?
I can't see how possibly Flight Simulator is easier to land that a real plane. You would be under immense pressure, more professional and have tons more functions than Flight Simulator, at the end of the day it's a game. Although you need is a keyboard and a mouse and you can land a plane, although some people use a joystick.

I still don't get how it's easier to land in RL than FS, it's just a game, you are under pressure and all sorts. It would be much more difficult to land in RL than FS for many reasons. ;s

[Adam!]

It's alot easier in real life, I can only compare with GA aircraft (PA28).

On flight sim, with a 98% realistic yoke fly a PA28. It's harder to land on flight simulator than it is to fly the same aircraft in real life. Flaps react differently in real life, which is a good thing, you become more stable and are able to control the flare 100% where as flight simulator it can be sketchy.

The aircraft in real life responds immedately to commands, where as flight simulator, although not noticable, takes a while longer - Not a major problem, but compared to real life things happen straight away.

There is no pressure involved with landing a real life plane, I've just confirmed this with a BA Airbus first officer - What pressure do "we" have? - Yes, if you crash in real you can't just restart on the runway, you'd proberbly die - The point im getting at is yes, it is easier in mine and a first officers opinion to land a real life aircraft than it is on flight simulator.

I'm not saying that real life flying takes a hell of a lot more skill, even in a light GA aircraft it certainly does - Once you have training, it becomes second nature. I've done 4 solo flights real life, it's much much easier to do in real life than on flight simulator.

Flight simulator is however good, if you cannot get real life experience, but certainly, real life is the place to be.

Hello

Before you all start moaning that I would be back, well I'm not. I just want your views on this Airbus Air Malta A320 Repaint! I've not done a repaint in a long while, and Myke's one yesterday ticked me off to do this Air Malta. C+C, & Any Comments (within reason ) will be appreciated!

Thanks

Well, the problem is. You can't keep to your word and most of us knew you come back after a few days. Seem you can't stay away? Yeah it was fine posting like what two repaints, but now your into the full motion. :) I won't post no more as i don't want your good shots thread to turn into an argument.

For some strange reason my 10 hour flight from Heathrow - Cape Town was never fully tracked on vataware but 100% i did the whole flight and bloody landed there. Silly website, heres some shots anyway.

Today, I decided to do an North Atlantic crossing known as the "Big Pond", anyway, I got my Virgin 747-400 started and used the call sign
"VIR93". The flight was flown on vatsim, thanks Adam for the route with the included NAT tracks, worked like a dream.


http://vataware.com/flight.cfm?id=913652

To anyone who checks the above link and zooms into on boston, Yes I did a go around, came back round and landing on the other side. It was quicker and effective for me :P


Now for some of the shots; (Some will include reg tags, to show there was an aircraft in front and so on) The guy who i met over the Atlantic was finishing off his flight from last night. I finally met up with him and had a good chat about flying etc. Sadly he had to go and disconnected.

[Adam!]

3 times actually Daniel.

Thanks everyone.

[Recursion]

:O Nice! xD Now you just need to fly with me again :D

[Paulio]

I have 1gb of it. Will FS be **** on my lap top?

[Dan-WHUK]

Depends what graphics card you have also. 1GB of RAM seems suitable to me.

[Technologic]

1GB should be fine for fs2004

[myke]

I run it on 1GB, I believe we have the same laptops.

It runs well, if you want a visual comparison, check out my shots.

[xxMATTGxx]

I run flight sim on 1GB does the job, wouldn't mind having more. But that will be until my new windows pc comes along.

[Prick]

I used to run on 1gb and mine was okay so yeah it will run on 1gb

[Recursion]

Nah you need 4GB like me.

Just kidding, hell it would work on 512mb :)

[jesus]

Amazing!

[xxMATTGxx]

Nice shots again :]

Thanks :)


Fit, I wish I had the knowledge & patience to fly online.

[Neil]

Can you crash into each other in multiplayer? o.o

[Scania]

Can you crash into each other in multiplayer? o.o

What a completely irrelevant post? No you cannot.

[Liberation]

What a completely irrelevant post? No you cannot.

Sam, you can ;) And if you have Crash settings on you will obviously 'crash' but FS will just reload..

[Neil]

What a completely irrelevant post? No you cannot.

Lol yea I was just wondering since it was a multiplayer based topic and I've always wanted to know xD

[xxMATTGxx]

Can you crash into each other in multiplayer? o.o

Yeah you can if you really want to. Sam I thought you wasn't back?

[Scania]

Yeah you can if you really want to. Sam I thought you wasn't back?

o.O My FS doesn't let me crash in multiplayer, considering I have crash setting and all tolerance on. Because I'm browsing and want to post doesn't make a difference? :[

[Scania]

Whats the point in crashing anyway? :S

[Liberation]

Im going to download is on my PC. Got a 8600GT and i'll tell you what it is like if you wish. Im sure it will not be amazing, but worth a try.

[Yoshimitsui]

I would, it's worth it.

[xxMATTGxx]

I would, it's worth it.

The game is, but a system which can't handle it like good then theres no point.

[Recursion]

I would, runs fantastic on full settings on my setup :P

[myke]

well ye, look at your setup tom :| :P

[Decode]

Hmm No. Unless your annoying other users then yes.

Dont think ill be switching just yet :P

[iAdam]

I have 512 and run fs2004, it works and it's all I ask it to do.

[iAdam]

So it was you I spawned up under, hehe, I was BAW379 who crashed shortly after take off.

[iAdam]

Very nice shots.

[xxMATTGxx]

When was this, I might of seen you. Anyway if you could reply back or PM with your msn address it would be great :)

[Recursion]

bah 20fps is fine, its when you get a PMDG 747X and London HeathrowX 2008 that you won't want to play ;)

[myke]

I get 10 FPS in FS9 :| That if I'm lucky...

[xxMATTGxx]

Another fantastic flight completed using the call sign "Virgin 93" and also using the PMDG 747-400. This flight was done with Tom and on the VATSIM Network. Sadly no air traffic control, but some traffic around which made it cool. On for the shots, any questions and all that. Simply post a reply.

[Liberation]

[Scania]

[Recursion]

Haha your mum sounds funny xD

[jesus]

I really like that landing shot. :)

[Recursion]

Full FSX ;D

God I love the mission where you are at the place in america where they scrap 747s etc..., you have to test a 747 just come back from being refurb'd from scrap, you do loads of tests etc... then 1 engine fails, then 2, then 3, so you are coming onto approach with 1 engine xD

[xxMATTGxx]

I really like that landing shot. :)

Thanks :)

[Recursion]

Matt told me to post shots in here, but the one shot I can be assed to edit and upload is incomparible (sp?) to Matt's :( My PS skills suck big time.

[Recursion]

No it makes everyone new take it.

[iAdam]

[Adam!]

Had a PA28 lesson today, well just reivsion and going over what I already know - Emergency handling etc.. Persuaded my mum to come along, she took pictures but hated it because it was so rough.

Routing: Depart Humberside, fly north to the right of the Humber Bridge, right turn out towards Spurn Point, continue south for a few miles, right turn to head west, over Cleethorpes Pier, Grimsby Town and finally to rejoin for a landing for runway 27.

Takeoff runway was 21, winds 210/22 knots gusting 32 - I did the takeoff, climb out and flew the approach, instructor landed because winds 240/22 knots gusting 42 - Landed 27 to save holding to land 21 because of a Thomson B738 on finals.

Pictures: http://www.flightsimhelp.com/Flying%2023-02-08/

Landing video also coming soon when YouTube hurries up.

[Crazy Bartender]

Nice, nice. But shouldn't it be posted else where? I thought Flight Simulator section was just to do with the game :)

[Kenneth]

When I brought my mom up I did a quick air time thing like on a rollercoaster :).

[Recursion]

:O So thats the plane I saw almost crashing!

Joke :P Nice, im downloading the AVI to see what it is, how did you get into Pilots lessons, I was thinking about starting them some time.

[Recursion]

There shouldn't be the 'clouds' over the wings that low :S

But nice none the less.

[Recursion]

Listening to it now :)

[xxMATTGxx]

There shouldn't be the 'clouds' over the wings that low :S

But nice none the less.

Lmao. clouds? It's suppose to be condensation.

Nice Sam :)

[Recursion]

Thats the one, but I swear it shouldn't be there that low :S

[Recursion]

I like the top one Matthew Garner.

[xxMATTGxx]

Very Nice Adam :)

[xxMATTGxx]

Thats the one, but I swear it shouldn't be there that low :S

I seen it in real life at Manchester, when they only just took off and when they come into land. So its about right to be honest.

[Recursion]

That better have been a very humid and hot day!

[xxMATTGxx]

That better have been a very humid and hot day!

I see it on cold days as well. so?
