Nope. Held on to XP11 for about six months. Went back one time and the difference was too much for me. So I recovered the HD space and am solely MSFS!

Nope and 2024 will replace it.

5800X3D. 32 GB RAM. 1TB SATA SSD. 3TB HDD. RX  9070XT.

Right now, no. MSFS is my main and only simulator. 

9800X3D@H150i // Msi RTX 5090 Trio OC // 64GB DDR5 6000mhz CL30 // 2TB + 1TB Nvme
Dell 27" 2127DGF - 1440p - Gsync - 165hz 
Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus // TCA Quadrant Airbus // TFRP T.Flight Rudder Pedals // Logitech Flight Multi Panel

I still have IL2 Sturmovik installed for occasional formation flying with buddies in VR.

However, MSFS has taken over my flight simming time completely.

I mean, why wouldn’t it?

Depending where i fly.

in the USA - MSFS by far 

However, in northern Canada (especially in the Arctic) , where MSFS textures look more like Flight SImulator 1998 than 2020, then P3D v5.

Like 80% MSFS and 20% P3D v5

 

( fingers crossed that MSFS 2024 solves the " missing " satellite issue. 

Unless you are retired or have zero other life, who has the time? One sim is a handful and expensive enough. MSFS is an all rounder and arguably a non brainer.  

Specs: 11900K (5ghz), 64GB ram 3600mhz, RTX 3080 ti

Main Sim PC Msfs, P3Dv5 and XP12... Backup PC P3Dv4.5 and XP11. Do I use them all? At least the three newer ones on the main sim pc, yes. But MSFS getting around 90% of the time atm...

Until recently I used XP12, but have now fully migrated into MFS, and I really do not intend to return to XP.

I may revisit P3D though, buying a monthly license and trying it out. Some of my best airliner addons were the ones I used in P3D v4 and V5 - FSLabs A319 and 320.

Flying gliders since 1980

Flightsimming since 1992

AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)

I've got XP12 but don't use it much as the antialiasing bleaches my eyes when I use it. A bit of a shame.

I was a devoted fan of FSX for 15 years, but after 5 minutes of flying in MSFS there was no turning back.

I’d like to fly a really good 747-400 again. I have pmdg 747 on p3d.  And a metric crapton of airports, atc, utilities, etc… none of it is installed, since I rage quit my p3d installation a month before msfs came out.  The juice isn’t worth the squeeze, maybe some day.
