Which one works on FSX?

Postby thephoenix5000 » Thu Aug 21, 2008 2:55 am

On http://www.simviation.com/fsdesign_aircraft1.htm there is:

- FS Design Studio - now in Version 3: A versatile & easy to learn FS Design Utility By Louis Sinclair - produces FS2004, FS2002, FS2000 & CFS2 aircraft & 3d objects;

- G-Max : 3d CAD style design utility specifically aimed towards MSFS. Initially came with Flight Simulator 2002 Professional Edition & is used for FS2004, FS2002 & CFS3 aircraft;

- AD-2000. Aircraft Designer 2002 v1.2 LT. AD2K2 is a tool dedicated to the designers of aircraft for Flight Simulator 2002

FSDS3 has been updated for FSX. You can purchase it here. http://www.abacuspub.com/catalog/s719.htm

Most people use Gmax which is free. http://www.turbosquid.com/gmax

I believe both work in combination with the SDK included with FSX Deluxe.

That is correct , but if you don't want to get into trouble (It seems to me that FSDS3 its more complex for FSX than gmax ), Yes Gmax its free, and for my short, humble personal experience ,use gmax wich is also in the dvd1 You install you FSX-SDK and there it is (install it Before you apply the FSX-SDK-SP1 or 2 :o otherwise for reason I don't know it wipes out by applying these two Sps )

FSDS is up to 3.5.1

FSDS is easier to learn but harder to use

Once you have mastered Max there are a lot of functions to help you but at first you seem to getting nowhere and that's where a lot fall by the wayside.

Whichever to choose, stick with it and you will get there ;)
