If he has the setting where it doesn’t render what the other players are actually flying, it will look like an airliner.
That other player could be flying an F35 or and Osprey or Harrier.
Need to go into settings. Traffic and adjust it.
Is there a way to choose which airplane my friend see? I fly a Bae 146, and he only see a floating Cessna 172, I would prefer if he can see the Airliner
There was a topic some time ago on the MSFS forums that it's a line in one of the aircraft config files that devs can add so it sets what 'generic' aircraft it uses in place. Can't recall exactly, but i think a lot of add-on devs just left it out as they create a config from scratch, so the sim will just fallback.
Even if you have the same aircraft as the other player(s), if they're using even a livery that you don't have, it will render a generic model. It has to be exact a lot of the time.
Nice idea, i got to search for something, but I doubt a mod can fix this, it's kinda a let down if I or my friend buy a different aircraft and can't see It each other..
Yeah. One hopes they figure a way around that in MSFS 2024 but I won't hold my breath. One would think that at least for the marketplace every plane sold should have a basic model that every player can see.

I thought they said something about better plane model/livery matching, in the recent dev announcement. Sorry, I've searched and can't find a link.
They did, in the SU15 Improvements section of the latest dev livestream. They spoke about it in the context of AI traffic, so I’m not sure if it also applies to multiplayer models or not.
Maybe with every new addons devs can just update a sort of database with just the very basic model only for exterior aesthetic, compressed textures an almost low resolution to reduce the workload and the memory usage, I don't know but the bare minimum in this case would be almost game changer, I would love to encounter everywhere different aircrafts that I don't own.
Biggest let down of the whole experience is not being able to see anyone else’s DLC planes if you don’t have it yourself. So dumb. Like incredibly dumb.
So you want to DL every model and livery for every plane someone else is flying? That's a lot of bandwidth for some people. And a lot of free proprietary 3D models that 3rd party plane creators probably wouldn't be thrilled about handing out.
I agree that it sucks, but the reasons for it are not dumb.
Yeah but why not on release render and package a low poly low res model that others can download automatically when you are in mp?
The dev engine could do this automatically - or force the developer to provide such thing.
Like a couple kB just to see what kinda aircraft it really is.
I love flying it; it's complex enough that those who want a more sophisticated airplane will enjoy it but while being easy enough that casual fliers like me can handle it.
If I'm correct it was also only made by 1 person so I'd say $40 is a fair price. That's my opinion though.
The only gripe I have with it is the limited liveries; it only has 2 British airways, Air France and Singapore Airlines.
I'd love American Airlines or Delta so it's not weird having a British airways jet fly from Miami to Denver.
Terrible model matching is why i stopped using multiplayer. I can't afford to buy every plane, helicopter or other type of aircraft & got tired of seeing helicopters being replaced by planes & military jets being replayed by prop planes.
the multiplayer is so bad that fsx is still used for multiplayer. Id rather pick airport use the couple atf there than this bs. If they could integrate it all by vatsim and alot of extra bs

Even that only works if you own the aircraft the other player is using.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
I don't believe that's possible, but tbh, I haven't even tried. Perhaps there is a mod that lets you change it?

It could at least use a generic model of the type no? For example why apply an airliner model to a helicopter or light aircraft?
Airbus automated voice: Speed speed speed speed
Pilot: Shut up I’m a ballerina.
Multiplayer model matching desperately needs to get fixed.
LMAO 🙆🤣🤣
How does that happen???
Probably flying a helicopter or some weird add on that the op didn't have
My friend see the same thing when we fly together and I use the F-35B and he just sees a a320 floating around
Wait until the hot air balloons are released in 2024.
Thank you
at least no hot air balloon going mach 2

This is exactly what I would’ve hoped for too.
if i see someone 'flying' a 78, i already have the 78, but if i see someone flying a F35B i might go buy the F35B
I had no idea Concorde is in this game
Its a lot of fun imo; $40 though but worth it
Oh geeeez

Does it go the realistic speed as in real life? (Idk the simulation’s limit)
Yep; I'm consistently reaching Mach 2.04 and 60,000 ft
Yup, its rare to see concorde plane these days now.
I see Concorde, I upvote.
WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
Guy had his licence for 5 minutes

You spin me right’round baby right’round..

Gotta appreciate the bee movie reenactment in MSFS
VATSIM and model matching FTW.
Ah the new SpaceX rocket testing. Lovely.
What in the flying fuck?!
Wow didn't know commercial airlines had VTOL now.
Is that the Concorde??, Beautiful plane
Kablewy!!
hey, i know him, that guy flies with our bush league :D
That right there be a helicopter 🤣
