I was just wondering if FS2004 is realistic on its age and if it can hold up with newer flight simulators. Are the physics, aerodynamics, weather and many other aspects of flight realistic here ? 

I have FS2004 century of flight and recently i have been thinking about getting some addons for better flight sim experience. What are some must have addons that make the flight sim more realistic or just improve the simulator in any way ? I will be glad with any form of advice or help.

I would like to soar around for a bit but there are no thermals. Clouds are there but no thermals. I tried switching to summer, tried changing preset but nothing works. Is there any other way to do it or are there any addons that add this feature ? I will be really glad for any help!

@michaelkalinowsk Thanks for reply, i will update my drivers and later tell how it went.

I have low end pc, the only flight simulator i can run is FS2004 (FSX is crashing and is unplayable) My specs are : CPU- Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU G3900T @ 2.60GHz   2.59 GHz RAM- 4GB

My problem is that when i try to run the simulator on fullscreen (1600-900) the screen goes black and it starts flickering and blue rotating wheel appears, but, when i press alt-enter it goes windowed and everything is back to normal. Even tough, i recently reinstalled windows 10 (completely), before this, FS2004 went smooth, without any problems, i could have fullscreen for how long i wanted and the menu was functional too. Now for some reason it does not work. If anyone has any tips of fixes, i would be really glad if you would write it down bellow.

I lost my patience with Falcon BMS, i do not have time to wait 20 minutes for one game which is also laggy so if anybody know some low specs/low end combat flight simulators, please recommend me down in the comments.

FSX has on my computer one problem. It keeps crashing almost always after i takeoff, no matter where. I heard that fsx is low specs so i left the settings tab on high and it runs pretty smooth-(30-60 fps). If anybody has any fixes or, any tips, please write it down in the comments. FSX is the only Flight Simulator i can have to enjoy flight simulators, because i can not run almost any flight simulator.
