I am excited about this - but I'm working for a hospital and the only internet access I can get from the temporary staff accommodation block is through this locked-down laptop. I'm not sure the Trust administrators would take kindly to me installing torrent software on it to download the files for installation on my desktop...

Interesting, I wonder how it would run on my Core2 Duo P8400? But interesting, nonetheless.

DL through the installer is at around 25 kb/sec, will only last around 23 hours.

That shot makes me think of Wings over Vietnam wiht a highway (sort of like a TK sim with the ambient civilian traffic on roads found in an ED sim)...

I hope they model north of 60 degrees latitude... (and appropriate changes in the types of lanscape).

What kind of framerate are you getting?

Got it downloaded Woohoo! but on my system I am not exactly wow-ed yet, sure it looks better than default FSX from 5 years ago, but I am getting pretty basic graphics and 20-22 FPS with the default on my system that runs FSX + REX + ORBX + Payware planes at 25-45 FPS...

Here are some examples of what I am getting at 22 FPS, is there something now working right on my system or does it look like this for you??

Random over Renton:


Renton Municipal Airport:


Boeing Field:


Approaching KSEA:


Over KSEA:


The flight model of the default Cessna 172 felt a bit more alive than the FSX default C172 but the graphics and FPS are definitely not doing it for me, roads look good, but everything else is pretty sparse, is everyone seeing the "Massive improvement over FSX" ? if so I'm hoping somehow my system is just not working well with it or something and it's defaulting to some lower gfx, I have high hopes for this being much better CPU/GPU performance than FSX.

FPS is killing me on this so far. Haven't had time to tweak it or explore more, but a pretty bad first impression IMHO..

What aircraft are included in the demo?

Is this the complete list of aircraft that are packed with X-Plane 10?
