It was a mod that if I remember correctly, in flight you could press a key and your plane would turn into a skydiver allowing you to free fall and then open the parachute to fly around. An addon like this for MSFS would be awesome, but I doubt it’s possible yet as it would require the plane to be switched mid flight

GTA is better for that

I remember in FS2002, Lago did a set of ultralights and one was a parachutist figure in a paraglider. You could go ridge soaring with him and it worked very well. I found a flightsim.com review of them here: https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/content.php?1536-Lago-Ultralights-And-Georender-3

What is with the fanboys constantly bringing up gta? As if because you can do it in GTA it shouldn’t be implemented here in MSFS. It’s starting to get annoying.
Nice find!
You are totally wrong, i’m a fan boy of FS (since FSII), not GTA. And that’s why i prefer seeing efforts concentrated on sim/physics/avionics aspects rather than on an “awesome” possibility to have fun playing with a parachute, there are really better (and good) games for that. I could ask for a mod for hunting dinosaurs in FS, it will be awesome, but there are better game for that also.
I never said you were a fanboy of GTA. I said you were a fanboy bring up GTA. But either way your argument here is quite dumb. As the aspect that involves MSFS is you know, the part where you FLY up in order to preform the jump. WHICH IS why the addon existed in a game like FS 98 before any kind of skydiving existed in any GTA, let alone GTA 1 which was a top down game at that time in '97. But go ahead with your totally irrelevant dinosaur example. Something which would be completely unrealistic to the sim. Whats next? no gliders because they can’t take flight on their own? Give me a break.
(some people have bad days, best to let it go…)
Most fun way to play with a parachute is just cause.
