FSX - USA Airports

[Airliner]

Here's a bunch of airports in the US. I was running out of room on my web page so, I had to junk the other pages - all pics are here now.

For these shots, I had everything turned up except water (set to high.1x) and ground traffic was set to 50%. First one shows why I think
you can live without autogen for now, if your system is overtaxed and you are a "big iron" flyer.

I have no intention of acquiring FSX in the near future, but that's a really nice effort, Airliner!

Effort? Meaning what, exactly? People have been interested in seeing some airports in FSX so, I thought I'd post some. Your statement
appears to hint at an ulterior motive.

If that's not the case, my apologies - been tuning into too much political rhetoric as of late so I tend to read more into things than they may
be.

[DBE]

No hint at an ulterior motive, my friend.

What I meant to say was: although I do not intend to purchase FSX in the near future, I appreciate the fact that you took the time to make those
screenshots.

Apologies accepted!

What I meant to say was:

Gotcha! I figured that was it. But, there was almost a hint of, "Nice try but, I'm still not buying it!"

Again, I need to ween myself off the political scene. It's getting ugly - all the second guessing, back-stabbing, etc. It's coloring my thought
process and that's a no no!

[DBE]

Oh yes, and I forgot: nice try, but I'm still not buying it! ;-)

Wow great shots! You must be on a good system to have all that AI, and im guessing to have set your scenery to high as well seeing as
the airport has ALL its gates insted of like less then half of em. Great shots!

I read dbe's post as 'I don't plan on buying fsx, but you have taken a lot of time and effort to get all of those pics'

I agree, some of them look very nice, but im sure everyone will still install better freeware or payware versions of the favorite airports

Cough ** some a little big* cough

Nice shots there, I am glad to see they are finally filling the open ramps with gates! Any shots of PANC up and coming?

[Airliner]

Yeah, sorry about that!

I had already uploaded a few that were done in 1280x1024 before linking over.

I look at redoing them and adding PANC.

I already tried putting BostonV2 into FSX but I got severe flickering textures like you can't imagine!

Side note: I may have finally found a way to link the mouse wheel to act as a trim wheel! I was fiddling with the standard.xml control file
tonight and think I found something I can use. I'll test it out in the morning.

Whoa! Hold on a second. Yeah, I've got a fairly decent system now but, I turned everything up for the images only. I was in slew the
whole time and if I were to fly in some of those larger airport areas, I'd be screwed. Right now, for flying, I leave autogen completely off,
along with road vehicles (the new frame rate killer) and airline traffic dialed back to 75%. That's the tradeoff for having scenery complexity
at maximum - I want details when I'm on the ground - not so important at cruise altitude.

Nice observation too, about the gates. In case anyone didn't notice yet, turning down the complexity removes SOME jetways at each level,
instead of all or nothing.

One other nice thing - no need for afcad file re-working as every single gate is perfectly aligned with it's jetway - just need airline
assignments now.

I also agree on 3rd party stuff. Right now, I'm more than pleased with the defaults - for example, KCLE is just fine for me. KTPA however,
looks a bit too sparse - same with KMCO. However, KDEN - YIKES! Love it!
