AMD does not support DX9 which RF is still using. There maybe a driver hack that works but with a newer card I doubt it. Lets not forget that nvidia has cut support for Windows up to 8.1 and older Kepler GPUs. Keplers came out in 2012, which is ten years after DirectX9 so its days are...

We must find The Sword of a Thousand Truths!

If HH was smart they would make sure every plane they sell is also in RF. Sell the plane and push the software, let people try new planes in RF then sell them the models.

I linked Ryan Douglas' post, second item from the bottom of his post is: Does 9.5S have any effect on AMD graphics card support? No. RealFlight 9.5S uses DirectX 9. AMD has broken support for DirectX 9 in their recent drivers for at least some of their graphics cards, and fixing it does not...

I bought RF9.5 from Steam a few months ago so I get the updates automatically. Everything is pretty much the same with a few new planes. The Draco is fun with prop reversing. There are so many Timbers, I guess that is what they want to push next year.

Started RF today and got an update notice, 9.5S is live! Looks like all the planes I have added over the last couple of months are all there. Now I am looking for what planes were added.

Awesome, thanks for the update! How fundamentally the same? Is this a content patch or is there some work under the hood with game engine/ driver support? I have seen some ATI graphics guys are having issues, are those going to get patched?

I'm not seeing 9.5s on steam and its not listed as an upgrade on the 9.5 page.

I looked into getting it and Autodesk now require verification of college enrollment. Well that was a long time ago for me, how do you get a copy for non-commercial use? Is it necessary to create models for RF? I guess Blender can be used as well but it looks like it was designed for a lot more.
