The chap making the FSX A4G has got back in touch and sent me this link - mentioning that HMAS Melbourne may be in the works later also:

"Case Study: A.C.E.S. Flight Simulation and Lockheed Martin’s Prepar3D®

If you ask Mike Pohl at A.C.E.S. Flight Simulation if he thought it would be possible "to deliver a convincing flight simulation using one projector and computer twenty years ago, he would have said, “no way”...."

A.C.E.S. SURROUND VIEW FLIGHT SIMULATOR

SPAZ...

Great find. Thats F'n redonkulously good. At least those boys are working on taking the ESP (FSX) flight environment/engine to its limits and maybe beyond?

Was it me or was that Javier's carrier they were landing on? With the static position scenery on the flight deck (E-2s, cranes, crewmen, whatnot), it looks like it. Next thing you know, you'll see Serge's vLSO giving calls and a grade sheet for that pass.

Orion:
Sludge:  Looks to be Prepar3d with the Acceleration Hornet ported, along with various photoscenery addons (MegaSceneryX Oahu, MegaSceneryEarth Grand Canyon) and Javier's Nimitz.

The FSX/ESP/Prepar3d engine are as is; A.C.E.S. Flight Simulation is just using Prepar3d as a platform for their simulator, according to the Lockheed Martin article.

SpazSinbad:
Attached is a 3.2Mb .WMV zipped video clip of the A.C.E.S. carrier landing mentioned above. Attached also is a screenshot from same clip.
