Your wrong here too. I'm running at 1400x1050x32 and getting 30fps on a
system I bought 6 months ago for ~1500.00 "Mxsmanic" wrote in message ... gatt writes: Haven't seen X working at full speed/full resolution, though. Nobody has seen that, at least not on this planet. |

No not all the settings are set to maximum but then again that was not the
statement made by the OP or you. "Mxsmanic" wrote in message ... news.verizon.net writes: Your wrong here too. I'm running at 1400x1050x32 and getting 30fps on a system I bought 6 months ago for ~1500.00 Only $1500? With all sliders set to the maximum? |

I have to admin I'm somewhat of a MSFS geek. *... My cockpit has a beer
holder, and I can tell everybody for the record that the bottle-to-throttle rule is a damned good idea! Heh heh heh... At Movie Night last Tuesday we had a special "Christmas Edition" that included egg nog with either rum or cognac in it. As the egg nog took effect I noticed an increased propensity for people to pancake the F/A-18 in while landing. I also noticed that watching that 104" screen go round-and-round was getting quite nauseating... ;-) *(I could have asked wife for a pee bottle for Christmas. Can't do that here -- mixed company, and all. When someone has to pee we just let the next guy/gal start flying. Plenty of copilots in the room! Haven't seen X working at full speed/full resolution, though. Me, neither. I've got the fastest computer money could buy last year, and this year's fastest video card, and I STILL can't run everything at full resolution with any kind of smoothness. Some people are ****ed about this, but -- now that Microsoft got MSFS X working properly -- I'm glad they built in room to "stretch" as computer hardware improves in the future. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |

Flying a tin can doesn't qualify you to fly a fighter jet or airliner. Flying a fighter jet doesn't qualify you to fly an airliner or tin can. And so on. Oh? Only in your twisted world. Where do you think all those student pilots are headed for? Real flying hours are the qualification for further licenses and promotions. 5000 hours in a fighter, 'tin can' or an airliner will get you a very nice seat in any of the others |

Anthony isn't interested in aviation. He's interested in provoking people. He got you to reply, which is all he's looking for. |

Ignore something like mixedup and students and others who are not to sure which end is forward might start to think that he might be right.. I shall continue to point out to mixedup (and others) that he has a 100% error rate |
