After having a great time in Wellywood watching the Rugby 7s and visiting a few cafes and bars - managed to borrow Sounds Air's 206 for a scenic flight over Wellington and over the Marlborough Sounds and onto Nelson - will catch up with the Baron there.

Over Wellington - finally a reasonable day for flying

Over the Caketin - the scene of the Rugby 7s (now I swear those Rugby posts weren't there the last time I flew over this!?) - looks like they are warming up for a Super 14 match.

and touch down in supposedly sunny Nelson - only shot I got of the approcah and landing as my 5 year old decided he wanted to land the plane (with my assistance)- anyway down in one piece (just) :D !

Catch 'em young I say, that way you get to upgrade your computer more often. :P
Nice shots Naki.
Some jaggies there (#1, 3), maybe turn up anti-aliasing one notch?

Thanks Guys

I have to say these screenies were rushed.

Charl I have anti aliasing checked - how do you turn it up a notch - do I do it through my graphics card settings - I have a Radeon X800GT (sorry I am but of a dimwit when it comes to comp hardware).

I live in hope that I get regular computer upgrades! :rolleyes:

Monkey BDG - Yes it is Ian's Nelson (i have all his scenery loaded).

Cheers

Hey Naki
The AA that you check in FS doesnt do anything. You need to go into the catalyst control center outside of FS and put on 4x AA.

THanks Monkeybdg - just found it and have truned it up a notch - tried other settings as well but frame rates dropped to 2 FPS! - fine at 4X - still the odd jaggy but better

Cheers

Remember to uncheck AA in FS - do all AA settings in catalyst control center
