Flight Simulator Comparison Videos

I hope this is in the right area, since it will be showing all civilian flight games i thought this was a good area.

 

so there will be 7 videos in the series, the first one we start with is just a simple starting up the plane, taking off and then crashing it. this is all done in third person. i tried to use the beechcraft 950 if the game had it. there are some games that are not on here and they are:

 

MS Flight Sim 01 & 02, not on here or in the series due to no outside view and no locations.

MS Flight Sim 11 - Flight, the servers are taken down and so is the game

Prepar3d V4 - game keeps on crashing on me when i try to change locations

Flight Unlimited 02 - game crashes on me when trying to load after the intro, this also happens in VMWare XP

ProPilot 99 - game also keeps on crashing on me, in VMWare it runs at 2fps, its basically the same as 98 but with just directx enabled.

Fly! 2K & Fly! II - both games crash via native and in VMWare. i was thinking about using the freeware engine that makes Fly! II work and look better but decided not to.

FlightGear 1997-2006 - from 2004-2006 the game will run but then freezes up after 2 minutes or less. the earlier ones need to be compiled and i am having a tough time doing it.

X-Plane 01 1997 - its out there, havent been able to find it but just old posts saying that people had spent $600 on it.

Flight Light - same as Flight Light Plus and Flight so its not on here.

 

now for MS Flight Simulator 2000 - 2004 i could of turned on the damage but again decided to just use the game like it was out of the box.

 

i might do another video series of the game outside of the PC so this would include Android.

 

so here is the video, let me know what you think.
