Just wanted to hear everyone's opinion on this. I always thought downloading custom planes would mess up the game.

Not at all.

However, if you mean downloading DURING the Simulator is going, probably, as it would take up a lot of RAM.  At least, for my computer.

High_Flyer, I doubt anyone would be doing ANYTHING else when the simulator is running let alone downloading from the interweb.

I've done that. I'm on dial-up, so downloading almost anything takes a long time. It didn't seem to slow the game down much at all.

You'd be suprised how many people do. There was a tweak going around that turned your Kneeboard into a web browser so on long flights you can surf the web.

You will get hooked on downloading planes  ;)

You would be amazed what people get up to when it comes to running programs in the background whilst running a game at the same time.....
Not a very good idea if you want "speed/smoothness" in the game... ...!

Paul....strange things happen in the Interweb... ...!
