Where to install add-on community aircraft?

[Thomasso 224]

Hi all,

I have been away from simming for like 4 months and I am coming back now. What I noticed is that the C152 Realism Mod isn't working anymore because of the patches that I've missed. So I downloaded the newest version and put it like I was used to: MSFS/Community

But the plane hasn't loaded. Then I started googling the thing and I found out that it was actually supposed to be AppData/Roaming/MSFS/Packages/Community - but that hasn't worked either for me.

Can you please tell me which is the correct folder? I am using the Steam version. TYVM 🙂

steam of microsoft store bough?. Mine is in a steam library  installed to an SSD  M: drive. My proper community folder is M:/MSFS/Community.

* sorry, I completely skimmed over that you have a steam install.

try this :

1. Go to Options / General.
2. Click on "Developers" which you will find at the bottom of the list on the left.
3. Switch Developers Mode on.
4. On the Dev Menu select Tools / Virtual File System.
5. The community folder location can be found under "Watched Bases"

It has to be the folder with / Community in the path, so, the lower one. If mod is in there and not showing there is something wrong with the folder of the offending add-on, or it conflicts with some other add-on. If your losing the "Linker" add-on, it can identify some of the problems causing the add-on not to show, i.e." can't read .jason file"
