Hi Drastic,

Chek out the 'Compatibility Guide' near the bottom of the main d'load page.

But basically, yes, later d'loads from FS2002, done with GMax or FSDSv2 should work.

Cheers,
Dave

Hi Drastic & welcome. Most FS2002 aircraft will work in FS2004. The animation on some earlier models won't function properly. If you get a "3rd party software" warning message click the No option. They might still be OK. The only way to find out is to try them. If they're no good simply delete the folder. It won't cost anything to try. ;)
