Yup.. I struck while the iron was hot even though I couldn't afford it. I don't think it's available as a download either. :(

Bad luck mate.

Earth Simulations have another sale on at the moment 50% off.

Considering buying Treescapes Vol.1, worth it?

Also Guernsey looks pretty decent.

I think treescapes is worth it, GenX is rather flat without it.

Guernsey is great, but very heavy on the framerates with the detail cranked up unless you have a very high-spec PC.

Thanks for the prompt response Dave, deal done with Treescapes, £7 seems reasonable.

Should be able to handle Guernsey. Got a 3.1Ghz Quad Core i5 Ivybridge, 8GB DD3, Nvidia GTX560 Graphics Card.

Run full sliders on IOS at 60FPS (FSX Tweaked ofcourse :) )

I'd like to see your tweaks (ooh-err) if you can run a steady 60fps with everything maxed out.

I'd say on average, I get around 40% lower fps at Guernsey compared to IOS

Take a look at this tweak guide Dave - bearing in mind, this is running on a PC with JUST FSX;

A lot of that stuff in there flies in the face of just about every other tweaking guide I've seen :lol:

That's not to say it doesn't work though as FSX can be a strange beast at times.

I was browsing this site the other day, and found a number of FREE D/Ls, some of which I took up.
I was quite happy with the results, taking a dawn flight from Bracklesham Bay (?) past Portsmouth for a sticky at the big spiral, then across to IOW for a happy landing.
I'll be getting some more of their payware.
Two volumes of treescapes are going FREE if you own the relevant scenery areas.
