MSFS - Screenshots

Can you land the Icon A5 in the Reflecting Pond on the National Mall?

Did not expect it to come so early.

EDIT: Post removed by myself.

So yes, it is a port over not authorised by original authors (Manfred Jahn & Co.). His statement regarding this issue can be found here

I guess with more users getting to the genre, these things will happen every so often :roll_eyes:

Steam gauges! One of my major complaints with MSFS so far, is that basically if you want to do any flying other in a Cessna or a Pup, you have a glass pit.

Premium Deluxe Gold Platin Extreme 3000 edition has a 172 with steam gauges.

Where the Ruhr meets the Rhine, even the massive orange Steelpillar called Rheinorange is modelled!

Does anyone takes requests?
I’d like to see the Ronchi dei Legionari (Trieste) airport, Friuli Venezia Giulia - Italy.

Thought I’d do a couple movie locations, swing and a miss for both.


Arecibo Observatory, Puerto Rico


Contra Dam, Switzerland

Still, got some good shots along the way:


Lastly, Haleakala sunset in Hawaii.

I wonder if other people saw my air show? Sorry for the potato quality.

After @boomerang10 gave us the heads up that there was a Pearl Harbor addon (freeware), I had to have it… It turned out to be a very scenic flight.

Ford Island Airfield, the USS Missouri and of course, the USS Arizona Memorial.

From Pearl, I headed North until I hit the coast, by which time the Sun was starting to set. I landed and took some time to take it in.

Not for long though…damn, this sim is easy on the eye…

Several miles offshore, I spotted a ship on horizon, so I headed over to take a look.

I’m guessing a LP Gas tanker…

It didn’t look so big from the air. Interestingly, this guy was cruising along with purpose, full astern. A bug that they will hopefully fix at some point. Wakes would be good too, both for the ship and the aircraft.

I leave my Tanker friend to it’s backwards voyage… time to head back to shore.

The night lighting is very nice… I landed at NAS Barbers Point, which we see up ahead.

I can hardly wait to fly this sim in VR.

Link?

Here you go…

The scenery uses photogrammetry (I’m assuming from Google), so the ships etc look great from a reasonable altitude, but not too great if you get real close…still a huge improvement on the default scenery for Pearl Harbor.

Installed it and it looks awesome!

Where the heck does the game save my screenshots to? (this is an xbox gamepass install…)

A group of freeware scenery object creators in my home country (Czech Republic - I do not live there for too many years to count but always love to come back; myself included :innocent:) agreed to my proposal to convert their work for FSX/P3D and X Plane to MSFS 2020.

We have already pooled some 160+ objects like castles, palaces, cathedrals, etc. and I started the conversion.

Needless to say, the MSFS 2020 render engine makes these (sometimes relatively dated) objects shine.
