Title: MSFS2004 Addons?
Post by: commikfx on May 04, 2006, 03:48:19 PM

I just recently got Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004, and I hear theres a bunch of addons for it.  Which ones are the ones that are worth getting, and why?

http://www.simviation.com  Download planes, scenery, etc.  It's free, with a membership you can supposedly get more stuff I guess, i've never been a member.

SimCafe (http://www.fsimcafe.com/Reviews/ReviewMain.aspx)

I'm pretty addicted to the CaptainSim F-104.  It sounds and flies awesome!  Linky (http://www.captainsim.com/products/f104/)

http://www.flightsim.com would be a good place to start. Depending on yr genre of course. For helicopters, gotta goto http://www.hovercontrol.com

Those 2 places are for freeware addons. The others, Level D simulations, Captain Sim - they run 20-40 bux per addon and are bloated code. Don't touch those unless you have a rig that can handle the bloat.

What would it take to get graphics like MSFS2004 in AHII...(besides an act of God)

How much do you think we can get if we sold all the sheep?

On another note I have the last version. I couldnt stand "playing" it. It was so incredibly boring. There was no point to it. Maybe if the land and buildings you flew over werent 2D. Flying the 747 was fun for about 5 minutes.
