I think it's verry nice looking, and is that the mountains casting shadows on the plane? :hrmm:

I do like the shadows - what is worrisome are the mad stutters.

So Microsoft is giving away Flight for free? Nope. I didn't like the bird reference. Not to mention the $2k rig needed to run it. :hrmm:

Tree's seem very similar to FSX there, shadowing is nice. Little bit of stutter at the start though, worrying. Not giving much away are they.

I blame the stutters on silverlight.

I can't even watch the video, keeps telling me to install the latest version of silverlight to continue.

I thought they were good, but I'd be interested to see what they are like with some city buildings and a faster plane.
Would be nice to get out of Hawaii as well :hrmm:

Those stutters were crazy. I can't imagine M$ would publish a video with stutters like that, but it seems weird that everyone would have the same issues with silverlight. Either way, M$ needs to get their :hrmm: together :hrmm:

Anyone complaining on the stutters...man up! It's Silverlight. I can be quite sure of it. I even did a little experiment for myself a while back and have concluded that silveright causes stutters in videos.

The new webisode looks great btw! :hrmm:

:hrmm: their still stuck on that fricking island! I see lots of stutters too but im going to ignore them becasue there could be a load of things to factor in after the video editing and uploading. its looking rather cool though.

The stuttering is dependent on how well your computer is buffering and processing the video. :hrmm: I had no stutters. If I can find a download of the video, I'll post the link up so you guys can view it from your hard drive.

Yeah, I would like to see a different video in a different format.  I am downloading at 20mb/s so it's not d/l speed in general.  As it is now, I see stutters.

Man up.. what are you talking about? It's what I see any way you slice.  If it's silverlight, than MS needs to find a better format. :hrmm:
