@durruti. Nice GTA4 shots (I'll skip the tedious moaning about AA

)

@pieplough. No special leftie mouse for me, but I obviously avoid those shaped for the right hand. Currently gone back to using an MS laser mouse 6000 after falling out with an ugly slippy-slidy Razer Lachesis.

Some nice shots there, the T-45 Goshawk is truly an amazing freeware aircraft for FSX. My hat off to Dino Cattaneo who made it.

Here are a few more shots of the T-45:

how did you get the planes together? is that online? or some kind of mod?

Looks great, how does it play?. Is it first or third person?.

I'm downloading the demo now to try it.

[Death] · 15 Aug 2009 at 19:44

3rd person, all maxed out runs smooth as hell

Yeah, its Airport Mania.

I used a wonderful free software tool to achieve some of those shots. The tool is at http://www.mudpond.org/FormationSetup.zip

You can do some pretty cool things with that tool, like these:

How much of that FSX is paid for and what are community made mods? Wouldn't mind giving it a go, used to play one of the earlier games when I was younger and use to love F-117A.

Ah.

I know when I found I was just on a real bender and had just ran off with cops chasing me from every direction, armed with but not limited to a rocket launcher, a shotgun and a baseball bat. I got blown up in the Sultan just after I had hotwired it. Oh well, least I know where to find one now.

Such a diverse game. Even a year or so down the line. :cool:

I presume that question is directed at those specific screenshots, the software used in those shots are:
FSX Accel. Payware
REX Payware
Mods: HDR Plugin, FPS limiter, Formation tool - all freeware utils.
C-130 Hercules - Payware (got mine free ->http://www.justflight.com/newsDetail.asp?newsID=1307)
F-14 Tomcat & Fighter Jets in last pic - Freeware
VFR Real Scenery, Megascenery X Southern California & Mallorca - Payware
FSWC freeware water config utility

Thats about it, there is an ocean of both pay & freeware available for FSX, just gotta search around.

Here is one for you:

Tribes...oh the memories!

Not to sure about that HUD but it looks pretty decent.

Well I just fancied a few minutes of GTA IV - then I witnessed the funniest/most random thing I have ever seen.

Basically the fat hooker walks over to the car (MPV) in front and starts talking to him - and some passenger in his car is just looking at him. After exchanging words with each other I watch the hooker open the drivers side door, throw the guy out and floors it but just as she does the guy gets up, grabs the door, throws the hooker out of the car and starts punching/kicking her up. Then legs it leaving his passenger in the car.

And there is me just honking my horn, shouting "USA! USA!".

I started ROFL but I do like it the 'living and breathing city' in GTA, its awesome.
