Thought you'd find this interesting
There are many differences between the two.Let me tell you the
differences:
More Updates:
Pro Flight Simulator offers more updates than FlightGear. They release new
updates every month. As compared to FlightGea downloads, which releases
updates only once every year, they offer a far better value.
Constantly Improving:
With a paid development team, Pro Flight Simulator can only get better and
better. They re-invest the funds back into the game to develop it. That
means you’ll get frequently upgrades which makes the flight simulator
potential one of the best in the market.
Joystick Support:
You can easily sync your joysticks, rudders, etc to work with
ProFlightSim. They have a system that makes it easy for you to hook up any
hardware in
your PC/Mac. With FlightGear, you need a IT degree to meddle with complex
XML coding. It is a real hassle to try to even get your hardware to work
Professional and Personal Support:
You get a team of support staff asking every question and problem you face
with Pro Flight Simulator. The professional support comes free for life.
With Flightgear, there isn’t an official support channel. This alone is
worth paying for the game.
VATSim and SimConnect/ FSUIPC Coming Soon:
This is a development that is able to be released. In the next few
updates, it will be VATSim compatible. That means you can fly with multiple
players across a standard network. (VATSim, SimConnect).
Video Card Compatibility
It is compatible with most video cards and solves the problem of lagging
and sluggishness experienced by a lot of FlightGear users. Most major
graphic card bugs in Flightgear have been fixed by Pro Flight Simulator.
Did I Mention Free Upgrades?
What I really love again about Pro Flight Simulator is the free upgrades
for life. I’m waiting for the next update where it will include 10 more
planes and 50 more scenery packs. The frequent updates is what makes this game
head and shoulders above FlightGear.
In conclusion, although _Pro Flight Simulator_
(http://proflightsimulatorr.com/go/visit) is based on Flightgear, it is FAR
SUPERIOR. As a paid
product, you get so much more features and benefits.
