Thanks for sharing the link. Much appreciated

I had a similar experience happen over the weekend. I ended a flight and the splash screen appeared with the progress bar slowly advancing at the bottom of the screen. But it never returned to the main screen. I finally ended up closing FS2020. But after closing, the background music kept playing despite there being no evidence of FS2020 running in task manager. Very weird. I ended up restarting my PC and FS2020 worked normally afterwards. I have no explanation.

Looks like there's a chance the 727-100 may happen: https://flightsim-studio.com/news/status-quo-q2-2025

"Backspace" returns the camera view from external view back to the cockpit. I would like to remain with the external camera but just toggle the external HUD off with a key (like backspace). Anyway, thanks for the suggestion.

I wish this feature could be set up to toggle on and off in MSFS2024. I like to fly from the external camera quite often so I like the external HUD to be enabled most of the time. However, when I want to take screenshots from the external camera views it's an inconvenience, besides an immersion killer, to go into the menu to turn this feature off before taking a screenshot. In the early days of MSFS2020, there was a developer (Mugz) who created a toggle option for the FS2020 external HUD. So, it is possible. I just wish Asobo would add the ability to toggle the FS2024 external HUD in a future SU. Please Asobo?

I hope this gets fixed in SU3 as these floating taxiway and runway orbs (not sure you can call these "lights") are real immersion killers. During daylight hours there are no longer any taxiway or runway light poles. At dusk, these floating orbs appear. Ugh

So when DLSS4 came on the scene there were multiple steps needed (download the DLL files for DLSS4, modify settings in nvidia Inspector, etc.) to get the benefit of DLSS4. Is all that still required if updating to the latest nvidia drivers? Or is it simply a matter of installing the latest driver through the nvidia app or through NVCleanInstall? If it makes any difference I have a 4090 card. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Bad_T - thanks for the new Flightplan map options. I tried it out and really like it! Works beautifully! I had been using various presets to add in the airports and sceneries I needed for a flight but those presets tend to add too many airports. This really keeps it to a minimum. Every time I think there's no way AL could get any better, you find a way to do it! Can't thank you enough for AL. It's still the ultimate tool for both my FS2020 and FS2024 flying!

Pardon my lack of knowledge, but what is DDU? I have seen this in several posts but I still have yet to figure out what the acronym stands for. Any help/clarification is appreciated.

I started using LNM in MSFS2020 as soon as it became available. Such a wonderful app! I am SO HAPPY it's now part of my MSFS2024 toolkit! Thanks so much for all the hard work that went into adapting it for MSFS2024!

Thanks for the replies! it's good to know it's not just me and my setup. I do know that ALN is not CTAF during day operations since I fly there IRL. It definitely has controllers during the day. I'll put in a Zendesk ticket and hope this is an oversight that Asobo is planning to fix in an upcoming Sim Update or hotfix.

Is anyone else having issues with missing tower frequencies for airports that should have a tower? My home airport (KALN) has a tower but the frequency doesn't appear in the ATC Frequencies list or when I attempt to contact KALN tower. The tower frequency is listed as CTAF (Common Traffic Advisory Frequency) which is basically a UNICOM channel, not ATC in the tower. I have found other airports near me that should have a manned tower but missing ATC functions. Larger airports, like St. Louis International has tower, ground, etc. frequencies. Just trying to figure out if I have a messed up setting somewhere. Thanks in advance!

I mapped "Cockpit/External View Mode" to a joystick button. Good luck

This might be a duplicate of what JonathanC has but this helped me: https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/581432-external-pan-view-setup/ I realize this is for MSFS2020 settings but I found that MSFS2024 has the same settings. Hope this helps

I'm really excited for this release. My late father flew the T-33 in the USAF and the North Dakota Air National Guard. Flight Sim gives me the opportunity in some small way to experience what my dad flew. Day one buy for me too.
