July 18, 20241 yr First off this was an addon with amazing potential. It had a great visual model, it used the default Asobo G1000 gauges when left not that much to model in a newer automated aircraft. Where it fell short was the sounds and flight model. The default sounds that came with this bird were so bad I hangered it holding on to a promise by the developers all reported issues would get addressed. That I believe was almost a year ago (shortly after it's release). It took two recent freeware offerings that brought this bird into it's own as in how it should have been released: Flight Model: Cockspur Phenom 100EV - Enhancement Mod (CFD & Ground Handling, New Flight Model) for Microsoft Flight Simulator | MSFS Sounds: FTSim+ - Phenom 100 Soundset (made specifically for this aircraft) These two mods made all the difference and I'd say a must have for anyone who is a fan of the real the Phenom 100.🍺 It's especially nice in VR. There's also a cabin overhead light mode that looks real nice offered on Flightsim.to. I'll be very cautious next time purchasing anything from this developer, but I am grateful they made something others could build upon and make it a top-notch add-on (someone will still find fault with it no matter what improvements are done😶).😊 FS2020 Alienware Aurora R11 10th Gen Intel Core i7 10700F - Windows 11 Home 32GB Ram NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Super OC 16GB - Pimax Crystal Light VR
July 19, 20241 yr The FTSim site appears to be down... are the sounds worth it? Is it like a subscription thing where you can download the sounds once etc? | My Liveries | FAA ZMP | PPL ASEL | | Windows 11 | MSI Z690 Tomahawk | 12700K 4.7GHz | MSI RTX 4080 | 64GB 6000 MHz DDR5 | 500GB Samsung 860 Evo SSD | 2x 2TB Samsung 970 Evo M.2 | EVGA 850W Gold | Corsair 5000X | HP G2 (VR) / LG 27" 1440p |

July 19, 20241 yr Cockspur mentioned upon the release of the Phenom 100 that they had "hired a sound engineer to completely rework the sound." WEHT that announcement?
