Prepar3D v3 Screenshots

Air America over Laos, on flight to Vientane. The weather deteriorated rapidly after leaving the mountains toward the Mekong, with darkness approaching and thunderstorms! Sweaty palms!

Note the wonderful work that had been done on the engine in the second pic. Manfred Jahns (et al) C-47 is an absolute favourite of mine.

I need to pick up a Phantom.

Having been on the beta teams of both, and depending on your variant preference, the Milviz F-4E/S and SWS F-4B/N are great models, having also working radar and weapons (except the S at the moment). A great time for lifelong Phantom Phans like myself!
 
I'm addicted to photosceneries with autogen.
Sure I miss the seasonal textures, yes, but for the moment that will be ok :)

And concerning the Phantom, I bought the Milviz one during some sales, if I remember correctly. And even though I haven't yet learned how to use the weapon systems, I'm having a blast just flight-testing it.

And it's not too difficult to land it on a carrier with nice weather.
I still have to figure our how to setup the instrumentation to get any landing helps...
The strange thing is, in TacPack I set all the carriers to use the frequency 111.00 for the ILS. But even with the VRS SuperHornet, after setting the ILS frequency in the central panel and setting the ILS to ON, I don't get any help on the HUD... probably I'm missing something...

Make sure that you have "ILS" boxed on the HSI page


I planned on picking up the MILVIZ J/S but was waiting for it to be Tacpack'd. I might have to pick it up anyway. I've been keeping my eye on the Simworks Studio's Phantom as well.
 
On the HSI page ? I thought all was done from the central top panel... I'm going to take a look, thanks for the advice ! :ernaehrung004:
 
This time I made some test flight with Dino's Tomcat. Sometimes I forget how nice it looks. I just wish it had a little bit more ambiant occlusion on the exterior model, where some parts are a bit too clear. But still, it's beautiful isn't it ?

And here we have the very nice Hawker Hunter from Just Flight via AH.
Rather dirty weather around Palm Springs......could almost be 'somewhere over England'!

IS this by any chance actually a screenshot from P3Dv3 ??.... :


simoreal.jpg


You see, it certainly is not my screenshot... Heck, it could even be a photo.... It's from an advert at AirdaleyX about P3Dv3.4 and i would love to know what airfield scenery this actually represents.

Does anyone here maybe have a clue ??.....

It looks 100% Orbx if you ask me but i posted my question in Orbx's forum and the picture got removed almost instantly. No Orbx airport scenery....

Say, it's not like it's default P3Dv3.4, is it ??.....

Thanks much for any enlightment !

Cheers,
Jan

PS @ Scotth6: i know ​ what that is.. :smile:
