Flying under water with any plane

[ctdlg 106]

A simple trick to enable flying underwater with FS2020 :

Create the option file :C:\Users\you\Application Data\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Fuw.opt
Copy and paste this :

Version 01
{UnderWater
    Version 1.1.0
    Preset Custom   
    {HeightUnderWater
        Enabled 1
        MinAlt -7500m
    }    
}
InstalledPackagesPath "E:\FlightSimulator"

Start Fs 2020 near a beach, and enjoy !

Notes :
* -7500m should be enough, feel free to use the min altitude you want.
* Change the path of the last line (mine is E:\ ...)
* This trick was successfully tested today April the 1st !

Pointless!  I can't see the weather effects underwater.  And the bottom of the ships in the global ship traffic pack look like word not allowed!  😕  Stuttering was better though!

A clear sign that MS intents to compete with LM on the military market. Expect a submarine anytime for the MFS.

Just load up with one of these babies. Those water masks are genuine modeled coral reefs!

Thanks for the tip but each time I try I belly flop into the water dislodging the pilots snorkels. Do you have a work round for this please?

The game lacks fish.
