Real XP10 lights (core, glow, flares and spills), shadows, normal maps, and animated control surfaces. It all adds up to a visual experience that you can only get today by flying offline with AI traffic. But then...you're flying offline
To have ATC interaction with real traffic is pretty killer.A screen shot doesn't quite do it justice, but we'll put together a video soon.
We'll have some planes ready for the Jun 10 upgrade to sweeten the upgrade for everyone, with more planes coming after that. Carenado are converting their entire fleet of X-Plane aircraft to nextgen CSL's for use on our network. We're also getting some help from Tom Kyler who built the MU-2 and is working on the IXEG 737. Jack frmo FlyJSim might be taking part, too, once he completes his product release.
It's going to be a whole new world with the new CSL's, that much is for sure. XP10 looks staggering and the old style CSL's with no animation, shadows, lighting or reflections just don't cut it.
