Performance.
I have, what I would consider, a mid range PC specification wise. A
Q6600, 512Mb graphics card and 2.9ish Mb (As it’s Windows XP) of memory.
Running exactly as the manual advised I achieved slightly sub 20 FPS which I
was really amazed at. The flight was extremely smooth and the textures
clear, this is a great testament to the developer.
A lot of attention has been paid to how this will run on your FSX PC, very
specific recommendations are made, for example running at unlimited frame
rate and lower water settings.
At the end of the day it’s going to be a balance of scenery complexity and
frame rates.
Conclusion.
This can be considered as one of those must have sceneries, so much entertainment for such a relatively
small area. I know the scenery is not advertised as being 100% accurate but
I truly felt I was there.
This scenery is well ahead of anything else available both in quality and
performance. A definite thumbs up and recommendation from me. If you are not
into helicopters then learn!
