I meant I'm sure there's a 'peak over' option in 2020 as I've pressed space bar by mistake and on my system it toggles between up and down. So you can peak over dash when you need to then sit back down after with a quick double press. Very useful in tail draggers. I don't know what it's called I'll have a look next time I'm in there.

Also, why the heck did they get rid of the "quick reload" in dev mode, when I create my mods in 2020 I use that religiously to check my changes, now the only way to check (in 2024) is a complete sim re start, that is extremely inefficient and basically kills modding. This subject was raised by many modders, including me, and devs on the FS2024 dev forum, and here, and responded to here by Matt from Working Title. Currently the only way to "reload" is to use the Virtual File System in a rather more convoluted way than the quite excellent FS2020 re-sync function. Many, including me, have argued that the now defunct re-sync was totally reliable (I used it thousands of times in FS2020 edits and it never failed) so I too am baffled by the needless end of it in FS2024 - it was extremely useful and very, very quick. You do not actually need to re-start FS2024 after an edit but you do need to know how the Virtual File System works. I must admit I find it difficult to use and really miss the re-sync function as do hundreds of others. It's a case of don't change what works but sadly Asobo obviously does not agree.

Marketplace still doesn't work in 2024, and I am not seeing it in my 2020 files that can be loaded. Are those of you that already have it simply part of the Beta and thus have early access to it? It's part of the upcoming SU1 update.
February 25, 20251 yr I understand there will be 3 more "apology" free planes coming soon too. I'm not sure what they will be. The Carenados are always good. Handsome and easy to fly. But not until someone here told me about the tail wheel lock. It's not fun to land with an unlocked wheel in the back.

February 26, 20251 yr I had to look up CAP-4 Paulistinha in Wikipedia. Looks like it was a Brazilian copy of the Taylor Cub which was the forerunner of the famous J3 Cub. 5800X3D, RTX4070, 600 Watt, one or two 1440p 32" screens, 64 GB RAM, 4 TB PCle 3 NVMe, Warthog throttle, VKB NXT EVO stick, Honeycomb Alpha yoke, CH quad, 3 Logitech panels, 2 StreamDecks, Desktop Aviator Trim Panel.

Just as in MSFS 2020, any file in community will overwrite any other file in the VFS, no matter the package source (encrypted, streamed, both, neither). Hello there. So there is two versions of .cfg´s in MSFS AI models. - aircraft.cfg in \common\config - aircraft.cfg in \presets\asobo\AIRCRAFT\config Those are not identical, in PRESETS/CONFIG subfolder folder there is only 6 GENERAL entries and in [FLTSIM.0] only 4 entries. In COMMON/CONFIG folder there are full .cfg´s. And for flight_model.cfg, there is only two [CONTACT_POINTS] entries in PRESETS/CONFIG version. Are those both beeing overrided from community, if there is such files edited?

The multiple files is because of the new modular SimObject format and CFG file merging. For details on how this works, the SDK doc here has the information: https://docs.flightsimulator.com/msfs2024/html/5_Content_Configuration/Modular_SimObjects/Modular_SimObject_Merging.htm

Im not regular developer. But i only want to change Asobo AI models atc_type to match real world manufactors. Now that are in all of them "$$:Generic" and ATC in game is calling them Generic. If i just change "$$:Generic" to CESSNA in aircraft.cfg in Commom/confic folder, it wont affect in game. They still beein called as generic. Please help.
