Title: Xplane 10 Versions
Post by: iwik on July 12, 2012, 02:36:54 AM
Hi guys,
Looking into buying Xplane 10. Im confused as to what versions are what. I see different suppliers offering versions which have 8 or 9 and even 10 discs. Whats the difference?.
Thanks
Les

Buy direct from X-plane site.   You want the Global version.

Thanks Scott,
Found the place which advertised 10 discs had out of date data.

Speaking of XP10, I got an email yesterday saying the update of version 10.10 is out and available from the Xplane website...

Guys,
Beware still buggy. Some are experiencing crashing on loading.
Cause is the Joystick routine. Im only running the Demo at present
but had to remove my 3d mouse to get it to load. Some have had to
disconnect the joystick then reconnect when xplane has started.
With update im unable to get my joystick to operate properly, something seemed screwed, no problem with previous version.
B/U previous version.

Scott & John,
Have you guys found Xplane 10 to be darkish and insipid compared to FSX. Ive screwed
up Gamma to max in xplane and its better. i found to get an image similar to FSX i had
to go into Nvidia control panel and windup Gamma and brightness here but now ive got
my desktop not really how i want it.
Be very interested in your comments.
Thanks
Les

Actually I feel like XPlane 10 out of the box is much more like relatity in hues, gamma, and colors to the real world than FSX is.  FSX can look pretty darned good with REX though.   What I am looking forward to in XPlane is some point when seasons are modeled right and snow as well as tropical waters and such.   Or if REX comes out for X10.   All in due time I think.....

On their site it only mentions it for XPlane 9.   I am hesitant to buy it and try it out on XPlane 10 if they don't specifically state it for X10.

In a word "No".
