Did you try the installer from the Blackbox website? https://www.blackboxsimulation.com/downloads/. I'm curious if it works because I want to buy it, but I might wait until the compatibility issue is resolved, despite the sale they have.

Yes.  I applied the latest patch ver 1.0.5 (2020) and tho it said installed it did not provide the TDS Bezel that is needed.  Same thing happed with the first release for 2020. Patch 1.0.4 was needed for TDS, then Asobo updated 2020 and a new patch was needed,  patch 1.0.5.  I assume the same is needed now, version 1.0.6 for 2024?

Got the update email from BlackBox but after downloading is anyone else getting an alert on the .exe?

Detected: Trojan:Win32/Wacatac.B!ml

This is from the standard defender on windows 11, first time ever I have an alert on my PC about malware, I stay well clear of any pirated stuff so I assume this is a false positive.  I actually emailed blackbox about it yesterday as a courtesy FYI  but no response so far.  

I don't need a 2024 version as I won't be switching to that sim any time soon but I digress, I am however interested in the statements made here that you can get the GTN750 working on this plane, I never found a way/mod to make that happen though so I don't really fly it because of that as the 530 is just too janky to use in comparison.  How would I get the 750 working on 2020 with its version prior to this 2024 update.

This is for the PMS50 add-on.

For PMS if installed it should work if we are speaking about the BN-T2. When I start an unpatched version (TDS Patch) the GARMIN bezel reports PMS50 GTN750 not installed. I do also have PMS50 GTN and can verify it works if installed but I prefer and use TDS. It should work. Good luck,

Thanks, that explains it as unfortunately I don't have the T2 variant, I recall this one was the for which they gave us a week to take up the discount offer if owning the islander already which imo was a ridiculously short time period so I never had the opportunity to pick it up.
