John Heaton replied to Ken Terry's topic in General Discussion
First up - I don't want to start a flaming war between sims - but Ken and Gumby have nudged me into a short story in reverse. About 5 weeks ago - I analyzed my MSFS use - My MS hangar has more aircraft than a museum - a stuffed up Community - a TB disc just as stuffed -time for a change ?? - should I wait for 2024 before I did any changes - including a new 2TB drive ?? - and I did the following. Despite all the birds in MS - I really missed some of the aircraft I flew in real life - because they weren't in MS - and I flew in P3D and X plane viz - the Saratoga - the Navajo PA 31 - The Lancaster and Halifax and B24 bombers my dad flew in WW11 - The single Comanche and other A2A aircraft in P3D - PA 28 and Cessna 150 and 172 etc. The original pipers - PA 140 I learned how to fly in - and the PA 32 that I owned -(avatar) - in X plane - so - on another TB disc - I loaded the full P3D 5 - and a few aircraft - along with 310 GB of Orbx - reloaded XP 11 and a few aircraft. Note - I rarely fly anything more than VFR/IFR below 10K I had forgotten the problems I had with P3D 5 - dumped it - and reinstalled all again with P3D4 - but honestly - I had to give it up - so difficult to get my Honeycomb set up to work consistently - and the scenery - despite Orbx true Earth - OH HUM!! XP was better - and the controls were default - but the scenery - once again - " how did we put up with these - before MSFS" What should I do - Reload DSC and IL 2 - all missions - and fly - ignoring the scenery - but have some fun with warbird action and fast flying ?? Or - bite the bullet - Start again - with my new 2TB SSD - windows 11 - and a reinstall of the current 2020 - un stuffed - with a community file that I only need for concentration of geographical areas and certain aircraft that I need to learn better Do more Tube altitude long distance flights - and night flights - and get up - out of bed - earlier - to spend more time flying - car racing Decision - decisions!!
