August 4, 20214 yr Hi, Last night MSFS had an update to version 1.18.14. Almost 50GB. As far as I can see, new stuff to discover, but most annoying though is that it doesn't recognise the FBW A320 anymore. It is in the Community folder but won't show up in the aircraft listing. I installed it again to no avail. Anybody got a suggestion? Menno i7-11700, 16GB, 1 TB SSD, 2 TB HDD, RTX 3070, Windows 11, MSFS 2020 DeLuxe, P3D 4.5

August 4, 20214 yr It was pulled from the store because it caused problems with SU5. Now that FBW updated the stable version to 0.6.2 for SU5 it may make it into the store again. For the time being and actually in general you better use the dev version using the FBW installer which is rock solid (on my rig) and updated permanently Phil Leaven i5 10600KF, 32 GB 3200 RAM, ASUS 4070 12GB EVO, Asus ROG Z490-H, 2 WD Black NVME for each Win11 (500GB) and MSFS (1TB), Rolling Cache 16GB, Photogrammetry always OFF, Live Weather and Live Traffic always ON, Res 2560x1440 on 27"

August 4, 20214 yr Author Yes, that is what I did, Fired it up but still FBW doesn't show up...... I will try again insatalling the stable version first and then top that off with the dev version.....

August 4, 20214 yr Author Hmm, not sure if it's me or MSFS but the stable version doesn't show up either..... Menno i7-11700, 16GB, 1 TB SSD, 2 TB HDD, RTX 3070, Windows 11, MSFS 2020 DeLuxe, P3D 4.5
August 4, 20214 yr Author The new installation is not reading my community folder that I have installed separately. Worked till now, but obviously I have to direct MSFS to that folder again. But where is that stored? Menno i7-11700, 16GB, 1 TB SSD, 2 TB HDD, RTX 3070, Windows 11, MSFS 2020 DeLuxe, P3D 4.5

Go to the FBY site and follow their uninstall instructions, then use their downloader to install the DEV version (the stable version is broken). It works fine, no problems at all. Oh, and remember to update it every day.

August 4, 20214 yr Uninstall the FBW from the 'marketplace' first. Then install the FBW developer version into your community folder. Stu i7 12700K , DDR4 64GB RAM @3600MHz, Asus Z690-Plus D4 MB, Gainward 4090 RTX Graphics, 850W Corsair PSU, Kraken AIO watercooler, Nvme 1TB ssd, 1TB ssd, 500GB ssd.
August 4, 20214 yr Author Thanks for all the help, but I am using the direct download, not the marketplace version. Also, I use the dev version and until this MSFS update to 1.18.14 my community folder was read fine. But now it seems that this version is not reading the directory anymore that holds my Community folder and Official. I checked with an add-on airport that is also in the COmmunity folder and I see the default one instead. So, the Community folder is not read. I had that set up once during the initial install of MSFS. But I cannot find where MSFS stores that information.

To be safe: you know that the A32NX is a separate aircraft for a long time now (listed separately in the aircraft menu)?
August 4, 20214 yr Author Thanks, been flying it every day..... It is not the FBW, it is MSFS not knowing anymore where my Community folder is stored........ that is the culprit to be honest...... Menno i7-11700, 16GB, 1 TB SSD, 2 TB HDD, RTX 3070, Windows 11, MSFS 2020 DeLuxe, P3D 4.5

I think there's a config file somewhere, where you can define the location of the comm folder. But I can't remember where it is. EDIT: could be in UserCfg.opt Edited August 4, 20214 yr by Watsi
August 4, 20214 yr I am currently testing the latest Dev version of the A32NX and everything is working fine. JPM Ryzen9 7900X3D, GTX 4080, Ram 64 Gb
