X-Plane 10 | VATSIM | B733 | CYYZ-CYUL | WJA596 

YHZ_Flyer oh man. I've had a few of those! What I'm really liking actually is the realistic braking affect in x-plane. Not sure if you noticed, but it took me fair bit extra just to get her to come to a stop. Pretty cool indeed! Winter flying in Canada is definitely a challenge! Cheers dude and safe landings!

X-Plane definitely does a great job of simulating icy runways. Just finally got around to downloading the NOAA weather plugin and have been really impressed with that as well. Just wish we had default winter textures, as the ones on X-Plane.org put snow everywhere including the Caribbean.

totoritko honestly, I think I'm looking forward to this the most! If there's one thing I can't stand about xplane, is it wonky weather systems. It's just way too polished for even a 10nm vis! Looking forward to getting my hands on XP11 forsure!

CptCanada yep and I keep on laughing every time I see somebody complaining about "too much haze" in XP11. Thing is, most simmers don't know how horizontal visibility is defined in aviation. It's actually defined as being able to resolve an object (of appropriate size, of course). So if there's a mountain at 10SM away from you and you can just about barely make out it's shape, boom, 10SM visibility in the METAR. But all this means is that past 10SM, the background haze gets too bad to be able to make out *anything*. Before 10SM though, it might still be too bad to make out smaller objects, especially if those objects are against a similar looking background (like a runway!). Here's what a stable atmosphere with an inversion layer looks like: imgur.com/a/XOMGM (and yes, METAR was reporting 10km visibility)

Aaron Price thanks dude, much appreciated!

It's not that hard to convert it yourself. Just download FS2XPlane

HardCoreSimulations exactly what flyer said! I believe the conversion software is free aswell!

I have the conversion software but when I convert the scenery its all messed up

Almost all FSX sceneries need some editing once converted to X-Plane. Usually it just consists of deleting objects that didn't convert properly, or overlay textures that didn't convert. This can be done in overlay editor, or WED. Maybe 30 minutes max of effort. It'll be worth it.

ok thanks! I'll try again! :D
