As far as default scenery goes, this is looking really good.

Xplane 10

Apparently uses houses along vector roads, which might just turn Ian Warren to the dark side...

I've been watching the development of XP10 with interest....It has been a bit of 'up and down' (i.e. global lighting = up, new weather system = down, procedurally generated terrain etc = up)

I hope MS are watching too in order to 'borrow' some of the better ideas for 'Flight'

Nice to see houses that look like houses, instead of the oversized boxes with steep tile roofs that MS uses.

Good to see you used the word "oversized" in that comment, the autogen houses are ridiculously out of proportion! tongue.gif

Oh, come on, Ian "One Eyed" Warren wink.gif I'd love to fly at street level past that! The specs that they herald as needed for XPlane are fairly modest too. Wouldn't mind giving it a go!
