I was thinking back to how things were for us before P3D was released.  Now, this isn't about P3D, but that's a great line of demarcation for my question for you guys.

 

QUESTION:

 

What is the single best thing we flight simmers have now that we didn't have 6 years or so ago?

 

 

64 bit simulators. Hands down. It's such a simple change, but opened up possibility for lots of innovative features that would have otherwise been memory-prohibitive.

That's certainly true, but I was thinking... the updaters we have available to us from many different developers. 

 

Today I updated a LOT of software via updaters over 30 minutes, but before we had these updaters it might have taken me a day to find out which updates I needed and accomplish the same thing!

 

 

Hello 

it's my first post on the forum ^^ i also think that it's the transition to the 64 bit it made the simulators more stable and no more random crashes

I’d have to vote for 64 bit sims too. OOMs as history (at least for a very long time) is gigantic.
