Phil announced on his blog several months ago that work on FSvNext has already begun. I believe a clean slate is necessary, but can you imagine how that would be received?ġ) Better lighting that looks more realisticĤ) Less Cartoonish Autogen and better blending of the Autogen with photo texturesĨ) Fix the wind change direction effects between stationsġ0) Different water textures for lakes, rivers, etcġ6) Use bump maping to create 3D Ice on runwaysġ7) Smoke and particle obstruction effectsġ9) Bring back the photo realistic airport surrondings to the airportsĢ0) Solid overcast. I have a feeling FSX is more hamstrung by trying to keep older third party stuff usable, and by doing so, possibly continuing with outdated programming.

I really believe (and I could be very wrong) MS/Aces needs to forget about backward compatibility and redesign the whole 'engine'.

Original Feature Suggestions for a New Flight Simulator Looking ahead, Dovetail has decided to continue development with the Steam Edition of FSX instead of creating an entirely new platform. You can read our review of the Steam Edition here and of course, all of the add-ons for FSX in our file library will also work with the new Steam Edition. The good news is that Dovetail Games have gone ahead and revamped Microsoft Flight Simulator X and re-released it on Steam with bugfixes and updates.

Microsoft did have a shot at a new simulator called Flight but that fell flat on its face because it was essentially a "game" with DLC.

Microsoft have officially announced a new flight simulator package for PC and Xbox set for release in 2020. Update: NEW Microsoft Flight Simulator Announced for 2020 We've collected some comments and views about the next flight simulator and posted them with this article. The official name for the next version of Flight Sim has still to be confirmed. View all of the X-Plane downloads in the sections below.Well, it's been said, as written on Phil Taylor's blog that we should expect a Microsoft Flight Simulator 11 at the end of 2010, perhaps in good time for 2011 and possibly being called FS11 or Microsoft Flight Simulator 11. So if you find anything that specifies XP10, it should work in your new copy of XP11 too. You will also be keen to know that most (if not all) of the X-Plane 10 add-ons also with in X-Plane version 11. You will be pleased to know that we have recently reviewed the latest X-Plane 11 for our readers. You can visit our X-Plane 11 discussion forum for discussion topics, and you don't even have to become a member to post. Perhaps you're already an avid X-Plane user, if so - you're sure to find a home here.

Why not try X-Plane today? You can get your hands on the free demo here. While there are not as many add-on packages and downloads for X-Plane as there is for the Microsoft Flight simulators, this is a growing section and it's becoming increasingly popular.įeatured in this section are many aircraft, vehicles, helicopters and scenery expansions for X-Plane, all available for download with your Fly Away Simulation account. In Microsoft Flight Simulator, aircraft models are all similar with a simple configuration file to provide simple flight dynamics, while in X-Plane, aircraft shapes, sizes and weights are taken into consideration in the simulation - giving more realistic flight. X-Plane is said to be more realistic in terms of flight dynamics than any of the Microsoft Flight Simulator packages, mainly because of the way X-Plane gives flight to aircraft models. With the increase in popularity, freeware developers have started creating add-ons such as aircraft and scenery packages for X-Plane.
