I have been pleasantly surprised by the improvement in frame-rates in X-plane 11 over X-plane 10. (As expected payware aircraft tend to be more realistic both visually and audio-wise) Clouds:Ĭlouds appear to be softer and whiter in X-plane 11 but my FPS did take at least a 10 point frame rate drop when flying in heavier fog/cloud layers. I have found aircraft audio mostly depends on the aircraft you fly and the original quality whether payware or free. Audio for default X-plane 11 aircraft is generally acceptable. Aside from ATC audio, general environment and aircraft sounds are quite realistic and pleasing. (Need a good graphics card for this at least 4 gb of ram) Sound: At night, HDR lighting adds more realistic vibrant lights on cars, buildings, aircraft and runways. The sun is more dynamic and bright, with better rendered shadows as one would expect on a bright sunny day. I have been using X-plane 10 global the past few years and after first running the X-Plane 11 Demo, I immediately noticed a vast daylight improvement over the previous version of the sim. The lighting in X-plane 11 is amazing and in my opinion, more realistic than ever. I personally enjoy the new layout and views for displaying aircraft, airports, weather and the visual representations of various flight yokes and joysticks simply wonderful. Whether configuring a joystick, flight yoke or tweaking the sim’s graphics, the simple sliders, added search function and visuals make configuring X-plane 11 to your liking fun and intelligent. Old and new users will find the settings easier to navigate and understand. The UI in X-plane 11 has been given a complete and welcome overhaul from past versions of the sim. My Computer Specs: CPU- AMD Phenom II 945 Quad Core, MEMORY- 8 gb ram, GPU- GTX 750ti OC 4gb memory, HARD DRIVES- Two 500 gb, One 250 gb This quick review represents my experience after running X-plane 11 on an older computer.

I will list the pros and cons I found in using the X-Plane 11 Demo and ultimately purchasing the complete X-plane 11 simulator on Steam. X-plane 11 is an advanced flight simulator by Laminar Research which utilizes modern 64-bit architecture found in today’s computers along with the latest GPU’s and CPU’s. This post is a quick review of my experience using X-Plane 11.
