This is an update to the last post.
The simulator was working perfectly, and I was having fun - always a dangerous combination for someone who likes to tinker. Confidence crept in, then overconfidence, and before long I was changing things that didn’t need changing.
The reinstallation of FS2020 I mentioned last time? It failed. I’ll spare you the details. The important point is that it was time for a rethink.
Here’s where I landed.
I own P3D, FS2020, FS2024, X-Plane 11, and X-Plane 12, and I have a 7-TB D: drive sitting there doing very little, so I installed P3D, X-Plane 11, and X-Plane 12 on the D: drive and put FS2024 on the C: drive. I’m happy to report that all of them are now working exactly as designed.
As for FS2020? I’ll think about it.
While researching FS2024’s settings, I ran across a few helpful videos, including...

The installation process - along with test-flying each simulator in the same aircraft, over the same course, and in the same weather - was a useful reminder of just how different P3D, X-Plane 11, X-Plane 12, and FS2024 really are. Each occupies its own niche, and each serves a distinct purpose within the flight training community. Over the next few months, we’ll take a closer look.
Your thoughts?
