this is what worked for me to find the exact path in the messed up file since su5

 

If your editor supports regex, use:

Find:

Ready\(t\)\{this\.m_cbOnReadyButton=t\}

 

Replace with:

Ready(t){this.m_cbOnReadyButton=t;this.m_cbOnReadyButton()}

Can you elaborate more on this? How do I use the "regex"?

I was able to apply this using a Notepad++ , but the problem is, that after the replacement when I start the sim, all the buttons, except for the: Quit to Desktop, dissapeared...

You may want to confirm the correct copy over. I just tried it with my base file using Notepad++ via the following

Replace what: Ready\(t\)\{this\.m_cbOnReadyButton=t\}

Replace with: Ready(t){this.m_cbOnReadyButton=t;this.m_cbOnReadyButton()}

and the replace function didn't replace the entire line! I had to find the   Ready\(t\)\{this\.m_cbOnReadyButton=t\}    section, highlight it and then manually copy over the second section   Ready(t){this.m_cbOnReadyButton=t;this.m_cbOnReadyButton()}

I'm not sure how you try the copy over, just a heads up on what I found. She jumps right to the flight deck now using the the latest from Asobo.

Confirmed working. Although, I used the replace feature in NP++ and it worked w/o having to manually copy it.

They "compressed" the javascript file (minified it) which is pretty normal when distributing these files, it's not "messed up".

For a developer it's pretty obvious what happened, and yes you can just add the same function call as the previous version did, keeping in mind that a ; will separate instructions.

Beware of the escape sequences (\) as this can REALLY mess up the parser that will read the code. Use a proper editor with javascript support to do this, not notepad word (God forbid!) or something similar. Notepad++ / Sublime Text are some fine examples that will deal with these files properly.

I can't find these strings, using Notepad++. This on the Steam version. Or would these signs change depending on locale?

Try in Notepad++ , find tab, search mode, use regular expression.

Thanks! It somehow works, but unlike SU4 and earlier, I see no options while loading. Luckily I remember it's just Shift+C to enter the plane.

I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I already tried to replace it manually, used replace function in Notepad++ and it still doesn't work for me. everytime I try to replace, I end up missing two buttons from main screen except for quit to Desktop. So basically I can't even start the flight...

I tried manually and also Notepad++ built in replace function. Triple checked that the text is matching and still no success. the buttons dissapear, so I can't even get to flight phase

I have to ask (Asobo)... what is the point of the Ready To Fly button? It's just an extra click. And sometimes I can't click it while in VR hehe.

Asobo just puts stuff into the mix for no good reason and it becomes obvious when looking at certain items in 2024!!! The absolute perfect example of this is multiple monitor support, they blur out the external views when you go into the menu to try and align the exterior views.

This tells me they didn't even bother to set up multiple monitors, if they did they would of noticed the issue immediately!
