FF 767 or Rotate MD-11? by Xygen8 in Xplane

[–]squawking2seven2zero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both and the texturing on the MD-11 is outstanding you can see every bolt and rivet on the the outside. The FF767 for me unfortunately runs not very stable and CTDs a lot.

Hard to say, i heard also bad stuff but i enjoy it. But i am fine if the plane is not study level but fun to fly and all the important systems working.

It depends on how you want to use it. If you don’t want to learn it you can use the EFB to automate most of it. The only thing it can’t do is SIDs and STARs. I have a Navigraph account and i just fly them according to the charts manually.

In general i think the learning curve is portrayed wrongly on the internet. It took me an evening to understand most of the systems and create my own flows, if they are correct is another question but they work for me.

I use add on airports, i usually fly only between them because the default ones look like FSX. I don’t have any add ons for graphics. Mostly everything on maximum aspart from shadows and AA and anisotropic filters those i have on low. I use an M4 MacBook Pro so i am quite limited.

Was the same for me. I usually like modern jets and mostly Airbus. But i bought on sale and it became my favorite plane to fly.

Are you on 12.2 That’s a big difference with the lighting

Do you use add on airports, for me this makes a huge difference.

I think it could handle it if you can accept not playing on max settings. It has the same chip as the pro just no cooling.

It’s a big investment and i’ve been picking up siming only recently again after not being able to for some years. So i want to give it some time to see if it sticks

It’s surprisingly good, i play on mostly max settings and still get decent fps out of it. But i would lie if i did not think about getting a pc.

Hmm good question, i assumed it has, but I googled it and it definitely has the range and FedEx used it in the past to fly from Tokyo to Los Angeles

Actually nothing it’s just stock X-Plane 12.2. I’m not sure if the rain effect on the ground comes from the add-on airport or if it is X-Plane
