The Screenshot Thread V22 & Competition

GEEZ · Sat Apr 15, 2006 5:54 am

Hi everyone,

Time for a new thread.
Same as before regarding screenshots and the competition...

RULES:
------------

1.
You may enter as many pictures as you want to, there is no limit.

2.
As in previous threads, Screenshots may ONLY be posted in thumbnail format. Any full size pictures will be deleted and not considered for the competition. You all know by now how to do them so you have no excuses!

3.
Pictures with "Replay 256" or "Simulation Paused" or the flight info on the top left of screen (Red text) are not allowed. It must be cropped out. The only text on screen allowed will be that of AI traffic in the picture.

4.
You may edit your screenshots, for example Sharpening, Contrast, Brightness etc as you wish, but any overedited shots that look totally unrealistic will not be considered. This includes effects from Photoshop such as water reflections. These will not be allowed as they not a FS effect.

5.
Pictures must NOT be taken in slew mode. All shots must be taken during a flight. (And believe me, I know a slew mode shot when I see one!!!)

6.
I will continue to post screenshots as per usual but I am excluded from entering the competition!

A couple of randoms, both from shakedowns at SJO. One is DL 757-200 Ship 647 and me betraying my loyalty to the 757-200 with Rollers (it's the first time I flew a PW 757, so for me it was a shakedown). The other is the CLS A340-500 in CLS house colours (I'm yet to download the other repaints due to the filesize and my 56k connection), doing its own shakedown. And the last one is AC's FIN639 at YYZ before departure. Screenshots are posted mixed.

Is that A345 reeware or payware? Sweet looking machine.

I am aware that a few of these may not qualify. Oh, and the Coke MD-11 had to go because every time I loaded that aircraft up, FS9 would shut down a few minutes into the flight.

Nice one Gaz! There isn't anything cheap about it, it's a great shot! Only thing I can suggest is try playing with opacity sliders a bit to make it a little less full on. See here: http://virtual.planepictures.net/show.cgi?124528

But to be honest that is just personal preference, and either way it's a great shot! Big grin

Chris, Aaron, Richie and Jeffry also looking brilliant as usual! silly

It's payware. You can purchase it either with the A346 or as an A346 expansion pack.

Sounds like a CTD problem due to a 24 bit texture. Check your PM, I have a solution for that.

Could you shed some light on how to solve that problem because I have a problem with many 50N 737 textures.. I load up the aircraft and my FS just crashes!

Many thanks,

Starting early morning from Rome (on a full moon day (moon is just setting on western horizon)

Just took off and get going

Cruising at 32000 feet

Turning for approach

Wheels out, getting ready

You can see the low speed and nose up attitude

Almost there

Finally at the gate

A340600 · Mon Apr 17, 2006 8:12 am

Hey there,

Great shots guys, nice to view. Also excellent to see a couple of AL shots Wink

Some new shots from me, first time in a long while Smile

Approaching runway 26L at LGW onboard G-LMCG inbound from Paris CDG. The aircraft taxiing is an Air Lambert A320, G-LMCD, which still wears the old colours and is heading out for Edinburgh.

G-LMCA awaits departure to Dublin with another Airbus on short finals and a train passing for the South Coast of Sussex

Old meets new

'Charlie Delta' passes Pier 2 on her way out for departure to Naples, Italy

Just airborne from 26L and passing my favourite place to shoot at LGW, this A320 powers towards France

Delta heavy is airborne and headed across the Atlantic

What happens when you send NW sends the DC-10 to SXM. Lots of noise and a struggle, but a beautiful shot!

This Virgin Airbus makes a nice change from the plain AF livery as she floats over Maho beach on a brilliant day full of Caribbean sunshine

Default scenery? Yep, still pretty damn good as the queen of the skies shows the beast she is

This Boeing hogs the night light as it climbs

Hope you enjoyed, been a while,

Cheers,

Sam Smile

GEEZ · Mon Apr 17, 2006 8:24 am

Sam,

Your screenshots are amazing!

That Delta 767 shot looks familiar! rotfl

Hey Chris,

Yes, had to throw in the DL one again, forgot about it then found it so thought what the hell, one of my favourites,

azza40 · Mon Apr 17, 2006 9:36 pm

my little bro told me to post this one, as this was the first time he took control of a plane on FS. flight didnt go to well as you can tell.

btw, how do you post multiple shots on one post like you guys do? also, how do you make the shots smaller? i am new to all this stuff.

Haha it's ok our username's are really different. To post multiple shots you get a program called fsscreen from Avsim, then while playing flight sim press the "print screen" key to take the shot. Save it and use imageshack or photobucket, but I prefer imageshack, to upload. Then you take the thumbnail code and paste it here and the shots will show up. For future try to keep all questions to the FS Question thread because this thread is mainly for screenshots. Thanks!

Sorry, but I HAD to include one slew photo from TNCM - followed by some sunrise shots flying the amphibian Caravan while simultaneously listening to the first show of Jimmy Buffett's "Party at the End of the World" Tour on RadioMargaritaville.com :
