Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 stumbled off the runway with a rough launch. Thankfully, the early server issues have been resolved. The game also received its first couple of updates, which smoothed out some bugs. Now is a good time to get back into the skies if you had a bad time on release day.
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 has many settings that you can alter for varying degrees of realism. This includes simulating the weather and the time of day. These factors can change your flight paths and visibility. You can alter these settings when piloting an aircraft in Free Flight mode. This mode allows you to pick any aircraft and any point on the planet you please. If you want to experience the skies over Manhattan at night, or the Great Pyramids during a snowstorm, you can. This guide will demonstrate how you can change the weather/time before and during flights in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024.
