You know, P3D still built over traditional MSFS software even be extremely developed until today. Its mean stilk behind from xplane. And Xplane is quickly overcomes the lack of graphics and models...

I remember thinking the same thing when I was flying FS2002, looking at 2004. I thought that, aside from the nicer-looking clouds, there wasn't much to prefer the newer version! Eventually I upgraded because content for 2k2 was getting scarce. When FSX came out I bought it immediately, but my computer vetoed the motion and I stuck to 2k4 in order to get 20fps instead of 10.

I never used FS2004 BUT I did use FS2000. I had many good memories on that sim. Of course that was back when I knew nothing about aviation. I miss FS2000...
Childhood memories 😍
FS2004 is still my everyday use sim and the best one so far
Though there's new and more modern/outstanding Sims, FS 2004 is by far (for me that is), ''the simulator''. I still fly it. I bought it when he came out. I'm a flight simmer for more than 20 years and. FS 2004 still gives me a lot of pleasure to fly. Thanks for bring it alive.
I still use FS2004, I've build my cockpit around it and it gives me good framerates on two outside displays. And I think framerates are everything, not only the scenery runs better, but much more important, the handling is much better, you feel every tiny input you give on your yoke. And there are other benefits too, I own a couple of scenery's and never have issues with new updates of the sim and then finding out your sceneries no longer work and you have to update them too(often not for free). Sometimes I feel like nowadays people not really want a flight simulator but more of a scenery simulator. And your now showing the standard fs2004, but with the right addons the visual difference between fs2004 and P3d is not that huge I think.

Thanks for the video, brought back a lot of memories! Convinced me to buy a copy of ebay to try it out again :D
I still use FS2004 today. With addons it's amazing. I have ifly 737 and run Ground Environment Pro, REX weather, lots of addon airports mainly from UK 2000 and use CH Yoke with pedals plus run virtual VDU on my mobile phone for a more realistic FMC. The best thing I like is using Track IR in VIRTUAL Cockpit. Just can't beat it.
Fantastic, frames are everything! The smoothness really compensates for the graphics (which actually isn't bad at all, it's still very convincing imo).
The FS games kept getting better & better. I had 98, 2000, 2002, 2004. Each one got better features, textures, etc. Never had FSX (2006) since my PC could not handle it. FS 2004 and the 4 CD pack, was definitely nostalgia. Had lots of research knowledge/articles you could read also. I loved the virtual cockpit and scenery. Flying the Bell 206 JetRanger was always hard but fun to try and master. It seemed impossible to fully master though, even with only a joystick. In the early FS games, the Bell was nearly impossible to fly. I can't wait to get back into FS when I build a new PC. Great video, brings back memories of 1998-2005

And I never realize the snow effects! Then again, I never put snow when I flew or even encountered it lol
Nice bro! I had 2002, 2004, and X! I hope to get the newest one!

Indeed brings back memories, the Lear45 was my jet of choice, put many hours in it. Only addons I had was flight planner/navigation app, and an ERJ-145 which I flew around the world in. Had a few iterations of MSFS before that starting with FS95/98 (Flew around the US VOR to VOR NDB and a real-life map of the US to find the next beacon) Got FSX when it came out, but it lay on my shelf for a while until decent addons were made for it. Am now flying 737s in FSX-SE. Might move on to Prepar3d or Xplane once my hardware allows.
Memories ..whoah a whoah.. MSFS 2002 is still my fave.. I fly it a lot to this day in 2023.. Dont have the MSFS2020.. SOMEDAY...MAYBE.. THANKS 🐺
I still use FS2004 for my civil flight sim, and it holds up very well even today. On modern hardware and Windows 10 it runs really well even at crowded airports, and the range of available ad-ons is endless.

It's really nice to see that video of FS2004 - with which I'm grown up, too. I started with FS98 and now e've got FS2020, which is amazing of course and makes it hard to step back. But I ve still have FS9.1 (FS2004) installed with MANY fantastic add ons. FSX never run on my old (i3) hardware, but now Ive got an i7 PC (bought for FS2020) and FS2004 is running very smooth even with the complexe airliners like from PMDG, PSS, etc.having all sliders to right. Of cause Ive tuned FS2004 with a lot of add ons, visual improvements etc. Ive updated airac circles, cloud improvements. Some cockpits ive updated with widescreen versions, which are downloadable and there is also an patch for eleminate the 4 Gb memory leak (that makes you CTD after long flights or with complex add ons sometimes). It tool awhile to make FS2004 great again. Its hard to compare with FS2020 BUT until now youve got B757, 777, CRJ, EMB and many other airplanes with FMC etc. and they are full working with high framerates. If you look for IFR, FS2004 is still an option to improve your knowledge.
fs2004 was way ahead of its time i loved flying aropund with it not knowing what i was doing as a kid :)
FS2004 is an excellent flight simulator, I used it for many years the graphics were good, and whilst the default aircraft weren’t the best, the add ons were great.
Nice to see FS9 being highlighted again.
Looking forward to running FS2020 this smoothly in 14 years.
I fly all of them... even all the way back to MSFS1 as well as SubLogic FSII for the Commodore 64, Amiga, Sierra Pro Pilot, Fly!, SubLogic Flight, and the classic X-Planes dating back to XP5. Yeah, I'm a bit obsessed, but I love them all for different reasons.
i love this sim i used to come from school everyday and play it but now i am looking for disk 4 to play it again
Just saw this after my flight on FS2020 :)
Ah, good old FS2004. Doesn't seem so long ago really, a good solid sim!

I spent a lot of hours on it, good memories

I still remember my last flight on FS9, it was on an iFly 737-800 with the Ryanair livery. Until my HDD crashed, good thing I landed before it happened.

Fs2004 has the best teaching staff also it has VoR intercept radial or something dang
Honestly at first glance, Im kind of amazed of the lack of progress from this version to FSX default in terms of textures. FS2004 was my first sim too. I believe I was 10, 11 or 12
It looks fine, I wouldnt be bad off on this but I enjoy 64 bit now... no more out of memory.
This was way ahead of it's time...I'm stil playing it today, using fs passengers, active camera, Radar Contact, FS build for flight planning and the mighty PMDG 747 with ANA and Qantas liveries...I don't care much about graphics, i prefer the realistic simulation that it is offering ✈️

Fs2004 imo is better gameplay than 2020 the add-on aircraft were so realistic concorde, a400m, f16, 747, I had them all and learned all the aircraft in and out. The 747 manual was about 300 pages so much better than todays sims.
i didnt even notice the tears in my eyes

You didn’t show the metal box it came in. I think my favorite plane from that version was the tri-motor, although I did miss the Concorde from fs2000. I’ve still got my sublogic flight sim disks and book, just no 5-1/4 drive to run it, for me that was genesis. Unless I’ve lost one somewhere along the way I think I still have every version laying around.
sad that I cant go back so far from P3Dv4 to FS2004....still back to FSX in case that I need some development test on FSX-P3D compatiblity works such as AFCADS.
fs98 and then fs2000 pro were my first sims. I doubt fs2000 still achieves 30fps (aged 12 when fs2000 was released)
Allec joshua Ibay still uses this sim, he uses it for air disasters and other things
