Thanks, will give it a go.

I'm new to SU14 and did not participate in the beta.

The liveries for the previous SR22 are still compatible with the new model SR22T G6?.

Wish it would tell more.

In my SR22 fleet they still appear as available in the sim, but will try some of them and will report back.

Thanks

The interior of the aircraft is completely different (different model all around), if that's any indication of backwards compatibility.  As 'Bugs Bunny' used to say, "Good Riddance to Bad Rubbish" when comparing what we have now to what we had.🍺 

Alas the doors still don't open...🥴

Not intending to be pedantic but it's not "Asobo" at all.  It's a 100% from-the-ground-up new model, textures, systems and sounds by Working Title.

Those last two words mean you can be confident that it's very high quality in all areas.  but yes, the doors not being openable is a strange one, given the otherwise universal high quality.

Perhaps MS specified "don't allow the doors to open, we might get sued if a simmer falls out!".
 

This is what doesn't make since.🥴  If this was like the Longitude where the same model had an upgrade to it's Avionics/Flight Model only I could see the reasoning. But to have a completely different/new model all around only to leave this out (knowing people would ask) makes no since.  Clearly someone went back to the drawing board, they clearly could have addressed the doors seeing this has been a requested issue going back to the original release of MSFS.  Instead once again they dropped the ball here.  No slam on WT, the modeler got lazy here. I'm surprised (not to be outdone by Cessna) Cirrus didn't complain about this seeing as the doors are a distinctive aspect of their aircraft.  They went so far as to make sure the Cirrus was modeled correctly in MSFS which is a high profile sim (didn't want potential customers to get the wrong idea). Maybe they didn't want to rock the boat too much nit picking the corrected design. All in all this needs to be addressed with a future update.😐 

If ever Gulfstream approaches Microsoft for an official FS rendition I hope they wouldn't let obvious details like this slide (I know, wishful thinking concerning GS🤪)...

From what I have read in the beta forums the liveries for the original are NOT compatible.

Thanks, that's it. I just tried them and all of the old liveries fallback to the default livery for the new model.

I'm a bit dissapointed. I wrongly assumed the SR22T G6 was going to be a completely new model and not a substitution of the original one.

W-wait......

Really? Are you guys sitting in tha' plane, and instead of flying, are just happily opening and closing the doors again and again while laughing maniacally? 😮

I will say the doors on the Cirrus are a lot cooler looking than most aircraft.  I'm not usually one to care about the doors... but that and a 4 bladed prop would have been nice 🙂

In my opinion, the doors animation feature is something that has been in some way disregarded in the MSFS default aircraft. I missed the feature when the first edition of the MSFS AAU's series was released, specially in the Longitude C700. Now, I'm again missing the feature with the new SR22T G6. 

I remember well those times of FSX and in, don't recall well, how many versions before, the use of the Ctrl+1, Ctrl+2 commands to open and close doors for PAX and cargo in most, if not all the default aircraft. Fortunately, some freeware aircraft for MSFS are equipped with the feature like the excellent Bagolu's C172 Skyhawk and the C172 Reims Rocket, to mention just two of them. Payware aircraft is another history, as most of them contemplate the doors animation.

In the MSFS menu is the new SR22 labeled correctly? It appears to me as just the old SR22 with old specifications and not SR22T G6. I have the premium deluxe and SU14.

It's not named correctly.  I noticed that too.🧐
