Best Shot Competition

[Wingman]

Old thread, I know, but new thought that, as a former New Yorker, I found interesting: In what state is the Statue of Liberty? New York; right?... ... riiiight? Ever heard of an "exclave" before? Me neither, until now!

Thanks Karl; looks nice!

I know it's late but I thought I toss in one for looks:

Why don't you go read post #13

I'm sorry, I didn't see that post at the time.

"- All submissions must be made prior to Monday, June 13th, at 06:59 Zulu (2:59 AM Eastern)(Sunday at 11:59 PM Pacific)"

so, why is it closed to new entries, and voting already started?

Thanks for keeping things in check, but, yeah, I posted the reason just above. . . I didn't expect such a quick response from everybody (and I didn't consider the poll limitation when coming up with the initial plan).

Don't worry, if you wanted to post an entry, there will be another competition to follow the conclusion of this one!

That was in P3D 3.2 (haven't updated yet) with the following:
A2A 172 (With my custom paint )
Drzewiecki Design New York City X 2.0
REX 4 with Soft Clouds
Realism Shader Pack


And I doubt they were in the shot, but also:
FTX Global
FTX Global Vector

I will admit for that shot I flew to the spot (no slewing), then paused and turned every slider all the way up and checked every box I could. Then I changed the time to get just the right light. I went from flyable at 34fps locked, to struggling to get 10fps. A short time later I got an OOM.

New York City X is very intensive, but with modest graphic settings can run great and always looks fantastic.

Thanks for posting, everyone!

On a technicality, I'm going to close the competition earlier than expected... The maximum number of options in a forum poll is 10, and I have 10 images already!


Look for the official album and voting poll to be posted soon. . .
