April 18Apr 18 Author RELEASE NOTES Sim Update 5 - Beta 1.7.21.0 If you are playing on PC, outdated packages in your community folder may have an unexpected impact on the title’s performance and behavior.

As far as I remember and if we're talking of the same problem, the mod that I implemented was to skip the "Ready to Fly" button. Is that the same you're talking about ? If Yes, the mod was to modify base.bundle.js ("C:\XboxGames\Limitless\Content\Packages\fs-base-ui\html_ui\Global\pkg\base.bundle.js") but the 1.7.21 has a different format. Are we on the same page? Am I the only one with a different base.bundle.js file in 1.7.21 ? Vincent B. Check my free MSFS sceneries : https://flightsim.to/profile/vbazillio/trending and my hardware configuration.
