I think the after picture looks more natural malibu. Nice job.  Wheels Thanks! Only took me 8 hours...  If you're talking about the FSWC that changes the shaders, yes, I've used it for a while. However, that only changes the appearance of the waves/reflections. It doesn't do anything to change which textures you see in certain places.

To fly this sim better, is more important a powerful Graphic card or a fast CPU?

I got a thought...
If I want to become a little proficient with Choppers, it's better to fly FSX or X-Plane 10?
Gosh, I'm afraid to tell my wife I've JET ANOTHER "those airplanes game"(sic)...
:/

Oook, so...
Fired up FSX full realism and flew around the bigger of the two stock helos.
Is it SO easy?
I mean, yes, I can't yet land EXACTLY where I decide and no, taxiing I don't quite do it. Seems stupid with an helo :P
But that doesn't mean I can't...
My question now is a tough one.
If I have to shell for some payware helos, are they ALL going to be so easy?
In all truth I'm doing this to try to instruct myself on Helo behaviour in the wait for DCS Huey...
But if it's going to be too different I just give up and wait...
Thanks a bunch.

Nice shots. That's a pretty good VC for freeware.

 Uploaded with  Uploaded with  geshack.us]ImageShack.us[/URL]mageshack.us]ImageShack.us[/URL] Speaking of freeware, heres a terrific free 757 from Just Flight. I was surprised at how nice the airplane is. And you get two liveries. British Airways and the new Ameriacn scheme. Don't expect Captain Sim or Quality Wings, but it's one of the best free airplanes I've seen. They only ask that you register on the site. Not much to ask, I think. Nice!

Speaking of freeware, heres a terrific free 757 from Just Flight. I agree, their 757 Freemium is excellent for simpilots such as me to get acquainted with passenger jets. Just enough complexity to keep it interesting while still being manageable. And it comes with a functional FMC.
Undercarriage lever a bit sticky was it, Sir?
