MaxLegroom990 Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 Has anyone noticed that what we used to consider repaints are being placed where completely original aircraft used to be found on our favorite download sites? Robert Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always Aviate, then Navigate, then Communicate. And never be low on Fuel, Altitude, Airspeed, or Ideas.

MaxLegroom990 Posted June 28, 2023 Author Share Posted June 28, 2023 Both of you have a point. What I have reacted to is really a problem related to Avsim's file system, which has a section for original aircraft, which is mostly filled with anything but original aircraft. There are lots of textures, some AI flight plans, and a few original aircraft. Perhaps the reason I looked at this is that adding aircraft for MSFS is largely a payware experience.

loki Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 When it comes to MSFS, many add-ons are shared through the Flightsim.to site, not the more traditional file libraries here or at Avsim. https://flightsim.to/c/aircraft/all/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Agree with loki! Most developers are not using the old familiar sites to download their freeware products. Lots of repaints by jankees are uploaded here, AVSIM and Simouthouse sites. 1 Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaxLegroom990 Posted June 28, 2023 Author Share Posted June 28, 2023 It's kind of sad that they've passed us by here. I went there, and found some interesting things to download later. The computer I'm using to post this is my FSX computer, and time (and MSFS2020) has passed it by, too. Robert Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They want to drive traffic and trade to their own websites. And let's face the fact that `Original Aicraft` means different things. In certain fora it only means `Aircraft that are created by the Developer expressly for... ` MSFS changed that concept, without any discussion, to suit their own agenda. So now we have to understand and comprehend that `our` interpretations have to be amended in order to fit someone elses world.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
