PROFESSIONAL
FLIGHT SIMULATOR GAME SOFTWARE
This is a
Professional
flight simulator game software,
for Microsoft Windows operating system. The game has over
20,000 world
airports, many world scenery packages and airplanes.
The flight simulator support popular
airplane, and helicopter models in excess of 80 types like
listed below.
-
F15,
F16,
Migs
-
B49,
B52
Bombers
-

Many more ..........
BONUS
250+ Aircraft Planes
Detailed
Features
Extensive
and Accurate World Scenery Data Base
- Over 20,000 real world airports included
in the full scenery set.
- Correct runway markings and
placement, correct runway and approach lighting.
- Taxiways
available for many larger airports (even including the green center
line lights when appropriate.)
-
Sloping runways (runways change elevation like they
usually do in real life.)
-
Directional airport lighting that smoothly changes
intensity as your relative view direction changes.
-
World scenery have pretty detailed coverage of the entire
world.
-
Accurate terrain worldwide, based on the most recently
released SRTM terrain data.) 3 arc second resolution (about 90m post
spacing) for North and South America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and
Australia.
-
Scenery includes all vmap0 lakes, rivers, roads,
railroads, cities, towns, land cover, etc.
-
Nice scenery night lighting with ground lighting
concentrated in urban areas (based on real maps) and headlights visible
on major highways. This allows for realistic night VFR flying with the
ability to spot towns and cities and follow roads.
-
Scenery tiles are paged (loaded/unloaded) in a separate
thread to minimize the frame rate hit when you need to load new areas.
Accurate
and Detailed Sky Model
The
simulator implements extremely accurate time of day modeling with
correctly placed sun, moon, stars, and planets for the specified time
and date. The simulator can track the current computer clock time in
order to correctly place the sun, moon, stars, etc. in their current
and proper place relative to the earth. If it's dawn in Sydney right
now, it's dawn in the sim right now when you locate yourself in
virtual Sydney. The sun, moon, stars, and planets all follow their
correct courses through the sky. This modeling also correctly takes
into account seasonal effects so you have 24 hour days north of the
arctic circle in the summer, etc. We also illuminate the correctly
placed moon with the correctly placed sun to get the correct phase of
the moon for the current time/date, just like in real life.
Flexible
and Open Aircraft Modeling System
The
simulator has the ability to model a wide variety of aircraft.
Currently you can fly the 1903 Wright Flyer, strange flapping wing
"ornithopters", a 747 and A320, various military jets, and several
light singles. The simulator has the ability to model those aircraft
and
just about everything in between.
The
simulator has extremely
smooth and fluid instrument animation that
updates at the same rate as your out-the-window
view updates (i.e. as
fast as your computer can crank, and not artificially limited and
chunky like in some sims.)
The
simulator has the infrastructure to allow aircraft designers to build
fully animated, fully operational, fully interactive 3d cockpits
(which even update and display correctly from external chase plane
views.)
The simulator realistically models
real world instrument behavior.
Instruments that lag in real life, lag correctly in The simulator, gyro
drift is modeled correctly, the magnetic compass is subject to
aircraft body forces -- all those things that make real world flying a
challenge.
The
simulator also accurately models many instrument and system failures.
If the vacuum system fails, the HSI gyros spin down slowly with a
corresponding degradation in response as well as a slowly increasing
bias/error.
Moderate
Hardware Requirements
The
intention of the simulator is to look nice, but not at the expense of
other aspects of a realistic simulator. Our focus is not on competing
in the "game" market and not on the ultra-flashy graphic tricks.
The
result is a simulator with moderate
hardware requirements to run
at smooth frame rates. You can be reasonably happy on a
$500-1000
(AUD) machine (possibly even less if you are careful) and don't
necessarily need $3000 (USD) worth of new hardware like you do with
the many of the newest games.
That
said, the more hardware
you throw at the simulator, the better it
looks and runs, so don't feel like you have to chuck your
expensive
new hardware if you just purchased it.
Internal
Properties Available
The
simulator allows users and aircraft designers access to a very large
number of internal state variables via numerous internal and external
access mechanisms. These state variables are organized
into a
convenient hierarchal "property" tree.
Using the
properties tree it is possible to monitor just about any
internal state variable in The simulator. It's possible to remotely
control The simulator from an external script. You can
create model
animations, sound effects, instrument animations and network protocols
for about any situation imaginable just by editing a small number of
human readable configuration files. This is a powerful system that
makes The simulator immensely flexible, configurable, and adaptable.
