Just Flight Releases Constellation Professsional

:ernae:I agree, most settings are at max and with the fs genisis landclass and mesh, fsx gex fex and utx , sim looks really nice. Performance is decent for what I am running. Considering new video card, more onboard ram, but not sure if it will be cost effective. Running at 1650 by 1050 so not sure if the additional ram will help loading textures. Bandwidth is very important, most folks don't understand that you need a bigger pipe not just a bigger pump. As for the Connie, I will be picking this up. I figure you can never have to many Connies. Prejudiced I guess. But the graphics on this bird are really well worth the cost, and with the "expansion pack" on it's way, this will give you lots of options. My favorite connie right now, is Manfred's and I have changed most of the panels from green to the muted baby blue that the air force had. They look quite nice like that. It will only get better for Baz's connie as more people get them and add all the repaints. Baz has worked really hard on this with a great deal of dedication and talent. Best of luck Don

:ernae:Check by the rear hatch, there may be a ditching rope attached. We had them on our connies!!! Only used one once, when we landed at Barbers Point and they called in a wheel fire. All crew slid down the rope before the plane even came to a stop!

:wavey:Great shots, Ian. Just installed a new gtx 260 from evga and it was the last piece in the puzzle. FSX runs great and the detail and texture loading is amazing. Took Texnetcops advice on the 260 and it is all the card I need for fxs. Things have never run this good before, now waiting to see the new connie on this thing, should be great. Keep up the good work on the screenies. Don
 
Don , You are really going to enjoy this Connie for sure ! , 22,000 and jocky'in throttle control levers , 184 knots , still require a lotta training :kilroy: , the new versions and updates , :icon_lol:

Thanks for the props Don...I confess to being in love with my 260GTX as well. That Connie is absolutely sweet looking-money is tight right now but one day I will be flying that baby! Still looking forward to new VC repaints.

Glad I took your advice and did not over spend on the equipment. The video card was what was holding my present system back some, and it made the difference from a good sim to a great sim. Things are looking up for the first time in a long time. Will now be able to just fly it instead of fix it, tweak it. Thanks again Ted
 
Quick Question SP1

Does this aircraft work in the FSX SP1 only mode ? I don't fly in the DX10 preview although I have a card capable . I just prefer not having the problems experienced in the past with SP2/Accel(UNinstalled it). I just wondered if I would be missing all the bells and whisles with just using FSX SP1 only .

Rich
 
Rich , I do have a FSX pc without any service patchs , i will install the Connie on this pc morning Friday and let you no what works and what dose not or if there is any problems .

Rich , a typical low end 3.4 Ghz , 1 mg Ram and with a 9400GT 512 G/card with the original FSX installed , no service packs , The AH Just Flight Connie works just fine . :wiggle::wavey:

I'm thinking about buying the conni, but I heart some rumours about runtime-copy-protection.

Something like a system process that talks to the gauges. Cloud9 used this kind of stuff in their F-104 (I sadly discoverd this AFTER purchase) which really spoiled an excellent plane for me.

Can anybody tell me if there is something unusual in the Just Flight Conni ?
 
I went straight to the grave yard , Tucson Arizona , the Davis Monathan Air force base and land off many Lockheed aircraft that i seem to see below me .
