If we saw hundreds of new XP11 addons in just a few months after release, and only see a small handful for XP12, that *might* indicate something. (I can't answer this, as I wasn't into XP when XP11 was released). Weather: This doesn't seem to be an issue, but if there's anything that I absolutely cannot go without, I'd love to hear this.ĪTC: I'm thinking of flying mostly NORDO, but if there is a tried and true ATC solution, I'd love that as well.įrom the screenshots and other posts I see on this subreddit, most of you have got this figured out! I'd love to hear how you make your X-Plane experience the best it can be.To make a more accurate comparison to try and draw any meaningful conclusions (if there are any to be had) - is the amount of new XP12 addons, a few months after the release of 12.00, more, or less, than the amount of XP11 addons released a few months after 11.00 was released?

I know Orbx has some incredibly detailed packages, and I may spend the money on those at some point, but again, are there any freeware mods you recommend? Scenery: I'm really just looking for something to enhance the looks of everything overall. Are there any freeware add-ons that could give an experience anywhere close to those, or other payware ones I'm not aware of? There is obviously Carenado for a pretty model and rather basic systems but I've been more interested by the HotStart TBM 900, AFM Mooney and some planes from Aerobask. Really?), but I'm definitely way more into GA than anything else and the payware options seem incredible. Some of these add-ons get superbly pricey, and I am trying to keep some money in the bank for a RAM overhaul at some point.Īircraft: There's obviously the Zibo (which I've heard to be basically a freeware PMDG. To start, I'm willing to spend money, but not on everything.

So, X-Plane users, which add-ons would you recommend? For reference, here are my specs:ĬPU: i7-8700k base clock speed (i think 3.7 Ghz) I posted here a couple of days ago debating between heavily upgrading FSX:SE and using X-Plane 11, and I started using X-Plane and found that I can get about 30-40 frames on high graphical settings.
