Anyone come back to FSX after trying P3D?

Definitely not a panacea but has some very nice points.  I personally find the performance excellent and if they can fix the LOD issue and shimmering in the distance then they will really have something that would make me want to dump FSX.

    It would take an act of god for me to even think about going back to FSX/FSX-SE

  • Going back to FSX is like ditching Photoshop for MS Paint. 

  • I'm with P3D for year and a half now and I'm very satisfied with its: 1. Stability, 2. Fluidity, 3. Graphics capabilities, 4. Performance (i.e. FPS) of P3D compared to FSX. Never tried FSX Steam. When

Nope.

I just can't do FSX anymore. P3D's feature set has just spoiled me to much. The autogen in FSX really drives me nuts now and you don't know what your are missing with the shadowing until you no longer have it.

I remember reading the same type posts when simmers needed to decide between sticking with FS2004 or FSX.  What goes around comes around.  While I still have FSX installed I haven't done a complete flight on it since I switched to P3D back at version 1.  I guess it's just nostalgia for me to keep it loaded.  Heck I have every version of MSFS starting at 1.00 still installed, ha!  I should try the FSX-SE since I picked it up for $5 but who has time?

 

It's all good whatever version is "your" version.
