F-111 FSX Released (payware)

It is up to the developer to determine what features the product they create will contain. I do not determine the quality based on weapons or no weapons. I just hate to see gauges that are eye candy, that could be functional. I understand some people like simple others like complicated. We are all free to buy what makes us happy, at least at the moment.

Back to this F-111........I would highly suggest holding off on buying it unless you have a top end machine.....the AB and vapor are HUGE FPS hits. I'm not sure if they can be swapped out or fixed or even commented out....but....I'm not too happy with this one as its a slide show for me when in burner or getting vapor.

This F111 has to offer a lot and JustFlight F111 has to offer the same but in different areas - In in now owning all three companies Aardvarks Virtavia being the other the first two i would consider equal ... now watch the birdy ... i mean the wings :icon_lol:

Like I said, wing flex, should be "standard" in FSX birds going forward....IMHO. It's the one thing that really kills immersion for me. No matter what you fly, GA and up...the wings move up andn down when you look out the window in real life, and if it's possible to do in FSX, not sure why it's not done more. Why isn't it done more? Or am I out to lunch and just never noticed? I've noticed wing flex up on jetliners, but never on smaller aircraft, and certainly not down like in ithe previous pic...brilliant BTW!

And it's a very smooth animation too, not the jerky up and down I've seen on some airliner sims.
 
Anyone else having FPS issues when the vapor and burner are on?


I was going to try and exchange the burner but the acraft.cfg file is very odd indeed...very short.
 
Well....to be honest....I don't care for it. I know it has alot of nice features...but its killing my FPS when I use burner or when the excessive vapor builds up on the plane.

It sounds like a problem with your machine.

You were also saying the F-86 smoke was causing FPS problems on your end, however we haven't heard that from anyone else.

Can you please post your system stats, FSX programs (i.e. REX, etc.) and any tweaks you have made to your FSX.CFG?

Thanks, Diego
 
Smoke / Clouds / any semi-transparent object causing huge FPS hit ==> deactivate the transparency AntiAliasing in the drivers.
 
Once they fix the numerous errors with the aircraft paints in particular the RAAF versions, then they will have a handy aircraft which imho has a great deal more going for it than Virtavia Model.

And is also better than the JF offering. But each to their own. That's the great thing about having three to choose from.

Simply remove 4 files for a very nice afterburner effect instead of the current one that some people don't like to much, which is fair enough.

When some good repaint guys get a hold of this, you will start to see just how good this model really is.

The wing flex alone is some of the best you will see in FSX.

Cheers all have fun.
