    Default Flight sim design studio 2

    is fsds 2 better than gmax. a couple of things bad about gmax that i can think of right now is that you cant make landable surfaces and you cant make your objects macro .api
    i want to get this but i dont want to buy it if another one (fsds 3) comes out.

    You CAN make landable pads with attachtool in Gmax and you can make APIs with FSRegen with GMAX. Read all the SDKs, they tell you all you needs to know.
    FSDS is easier to learn, but Gmax is more powerful and has more options, plus free. I have both installed and I am leaning towards Gmax more.
