MSFS 2020 Addons

[RW1 615]

Just a heads up. Not sure about these. They are selling them. Might be legit. Anyone have some insight. The website says these are made with the SDK and not imported from FSX(Um didn't realise you can 3d model in the SDK). F14 looks similar to Dino`s model.

darn.. well the ultralight with animated prop is a 30 second conversion from the old FSX ( I know, I've done it) and as they say doesn't include any instruments...   that makes it rather expensive from my point of view,

Come on, we know better than that. just looking at the screenshot, you know that'll be a waste of 10 dollars. So people are shameless.

Expensive and illegal. I`m sure others will step in with some more id on the F14.

Yeah,  bear in mind as well that unless they have been setup in a very specific way (documented in very few places) that using a converted aircraft with multi-player options on is likely to cause a CTD either on your system, or more likely on the persons system that tries to view your plane if they are in multiplayer.  (Hence the need to make Generic aircraft ON to stop both this and black screen avionics )

FSX and other conversions are NOT stable yet as the threads in the official forums will happily point out, and a lot of the people doing the conversions are not exactly those that I would trust with an add-on to FS2020 at this stage 🙂

There have been multiple reports of adding converted aircraft to FS2020 and converting using the SDK that corrupts the base and requires a re-install, and let's face it.. even a simple A320 repaint can create a CTD if certain settings are not properly observed in the uploaded files...  again.. looking at is this an AI aircraft as well setting 🙂

Honestly i don't think these models belong to this hack club selling them. They have taken other freeware models from FSX and got the basics going in MSFS 2020 and charging ppl for access to them. The genuine owners will see it sooner or later, I maybe jumping the gun here but i`ve been around FS long enough to smell a rat.

Just about to throw that in, too, after I learned about that site just yesterday. Some of the offering seems pretty sleek and well developed, I started into the world of mods with a King Air repaint which I just installed. Looks neat 🙂

I use them as my base for everything including scenery, I`m not looking for addon`s per say, I`m trying to alert users to the fact that these alleged hacks might be using free models/Legitimate copyrighted property and charging.

Stop giving these cretins airtime.

It could be a port of the Aerosoft F-14 one;

In which case a very foolish thing to do. Equally foolish if it turns out to be Dino's.
