Many of the textures from P3D don't look right in the new sim. 

The unfortunate Orbx slip-up  is something from which I wouldn’t draw a conclusion at that point.  Except for the Strat’ which has dated  textures, all my current A2A even older ones look pretty good at 2560x1440 in my P3D.

Don’t you try to scare away the casual simmers and newcomers that will make our hobby something like nothing before 😇.

I came to appreciate my GTN in all of their birds. And I love the Cherokee/Comanche and P51civ autopilots.

i am very interested to see how the A2A planes fly with the new flight physics, because with the old physics they created (for me at least) the best flying experience with a GA plane.

Exactly.  They look great in p3d.  They'll need an upgrade in the new sim

May look good in P3D but definitely not in the new MFS for sure. Do a side by side comparison and you can clearly tell the difference.

Well, TBH I don't think that MSFS default aircraft, in terms of graphics, are so far ahead of A2A.

A2A aircraft have awesome texture quality even in FSX!

Its like with a girl, you gotta look the beauty inside, smartness & kindness are better than an nice makeup and hairdo. I give all the PBR you want against a solid flight and system model and front panel

You obviously either have bad eyes, bad display or both if you can't see the difference.

Easy there, Aaron.

Seriously, if you're that worried about the appearance of A2A aircraft in MSFS you should probably avoid them.  I'm sure there will be plenty of aircraft to choose from elsewhere.

This is the only reason I felt compelled enough to get the deluxe version (eh actually I just went with premium because I didn’t want to miss out, but not very reasonable on my part). I needed that 172 with analog gauges.

Good God now we are talking down A2A. You people need to let the effect of the MS2020 drugs to start to level out in your blood stream. It is effecting your judgement.

Wait... is that DUST on the glareshield of the Cherokee? 😄  Well *that's* certainly not like the default MSFS aircraft! 😄 

Most of the newer A2A are using PBR.  The MSFS planes are using a different technology.

It's not that...  We're happy to spend more money on native products.  A2A is a great company!  I hope we don't see a ton of ports that look worse than default aircraft.

I don't get the feeling that creating exterior textures for MSFS2020 is that difficult. Carenado did it and it looks just as good as the default stuff. There are freeware liveries coming out that look good. 

I'm positive that if A2A did port some stuff, it would be done right. 

If the choice is no Comanche/182/Cherokee in MSFS vs. a port, let me at least have the option.
