P3D VR support is nothing compared to what FI is able to do. I dont blame people for disliking VR in P3D if all they tried was the VR setting in P3d, it's terrible. Native VR in P3D 4.2 is as good, if not better, than Flyinside. Easy to use, no problems with other add-ons, etc. Native VR in XP11 is even better, considering that you can use touch controls.

Native supports Chaseplane cameras and HDR lighting and is a bit clearer and simpler. Flyinside has a bit better performance, zoom and support for importing external windows, although I find it a bit messy and you have resize and mess around to make it work. I'd say now after playing around a bit longer that native has a slight edge if you have powerful machine.
April 5, 20188 yr Commercial Member Yeah I always create a PDF with my flight plan and all my terminal charts so I can bring it into the cockpit and view them. No way to do that without FI. Plus the zoom is important for planes like the CRJ and the Dash 8 where the text is too small to read. I'd like P3d to get to the point where I don't need FI but it's just not even close. I'd give anything for a way to take good screenshots though. I really miss that. Edited April 5, 20188 yr by NoahBryant Noah Bryant

This implementation is better than Flyinside's, in my opinion. As for zooming in, this is also possible in X-Plane.
