• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I am generally pretty thrilled with P3D 64 bit particularly with the recent additions of Active Sky and Tomatoshade.

Never have really seen anyone here extol the virtues of X plane. Can someone say why it is so good and better than FSX or P3D? Am always open minded to trying a new sim!
 
My position is, Brand X-plane could be the King of Flight Simulation software, and it makes no difference to me, because I cannot afford to buy add-ons for yet ANOTHER simulation. Just can't do it. NC

+1...I agree. (For some reason I need to use 10 characters to get my message to post. I have now met the requirement, but "+1" was all I really wanted to communicate.)
 
The thing is, if somebody who uses FSX or P3D wants some opinion about XPlane, he is probably more interested in the opinions of FSX/P3D'ers.
I do not see any problems in asking questions about XPlane in the FSX or P3D forums.

Check the x-plane section and review the posts from those that have begun to use it. Check the screenshots to see what it looks like. Download the demo.

there is an active x-plane section here at soh and there is no reason for x-plane topics to be in P3D. I use both and I check both daily.

my 4 cents worth. Bob

Very true, depending on the various observations for or against posted in this forum the OP can then go to the X-Plane forum for more in depth investigation.
It costs nothing to be helpful........:encouragement:
