I'm using 1.5 and I just downloaded and installed 1.7. When I look at the version in the program screen it still says 1.5 so I'm not sure what I did wrong. Anyway, I'm still having the same problem with auto landings switching to fly by view. Is there any requirement that I'm missing because I can't open MSFS24 from the spotty menu so that means something is wrong, but I don't know what.

I'm just going to uninstall and reinstall it. It still keeps switching to flyby even if I click off flyby. It stays on world but as soon as a plane is landing it switches. I also can't launch MSFS24 from the program menu, so I know something is not right. Is there a proper way to completely uninstall to make sure I start a clean install.

Thanks for your offer but I think I'm done with the whole thing. I'm uninstalling all of it. Thank you

Has something changed in the auto landing settings? or is there even a setting for that. I have been testing all day and whenever a plane comes into view it defaults to fly by view. I have tried it in world and tower views. I would just like to sit at a spot, and watch planes arrive buy not in fly by view. I used to able to do that but maybe I missed an update and is there a way to go back to that version?

I just updated and now I can't start the sim from the spotty26 menu. My world camera is not working right. I select a spot and use the auto landing feature, but it keeps switching to fly by view. It happens in tower view as well so I'm not sure what's happening. i have unselected fly by view but it keeps switching to it. Did something change in the update and am I not doing something right. Thanks

ok, thanks I have one more question. Can you describe the way to install AIG into p3d v4. I can't find any good instructions anymore. I am specifically looking for the folder structure. I have the program installed but I need to know how to setup the folders so P3D can read them. I know there is a warning not to make a folder in P3D but how does P3D find them if they are not in the P3D folder. I only have a C drive and that's where AIG is but P3D can't see it and maybe that's why STB can't see it. I think if get AIG installed right then STB can find it. Thanks again.

Oh no, that's terrible. Does every website have to get attacked. We can't have anything nice anymore. I really hope you can return because it's a vital part of my flight sim experience. I tried to download AI Companion but was unsuccessful. What does the program actually do? I did have AIG and STB working together for years but I left P3D years ago so maybe they don't work together anymore.

Hi guys, I decided to ditch FS2024 and come back to P3D. Now to get it out of the way. I am strictly a plane spotter and I don't fly. I realized that P3D is so much better for plane spotting because of a few programs and that's where I need help. I am referring to super traffic board and the AIG installer. I have installed both with no problems, but when I load up super traffic board I don't see any of the AIG packages. I have recompiled but they still don't show. So, I am wondering where to install the AIG packages where super traffic board P3D can find them. I sure hope this forum is still very active because this is where I used to get lots of help. Plane spotting is why I came back and I realize i need to approach things differently, but I seem to have forgotten how to do that. Thank you

Did this just start after the latest update because I never had this problem before. Load up a flight and every plane has wheels. I am also having a weird camera thing when I am in chase mode in spotty26 the whole screen is upside down. I hit the rotate buttons and it never rotates. I am using the latest update to spotty26 and that also used to work without problems. I used to use a follow me plane and everything worked but it's not available anymore. I also don't know why but when I hit fly now the camera is all over the place. I didn't have to "jump" into the plane for the camera to work. I just want to start a flight with the camera static not moving all over the place with the mouse. So now I really have to ask what the hell happened? There are so many more issues but I don't have the patience to deal with them. These are the biggest problems that I need help with. Thanks

It seems to be working again. I have the steam version, so I verified the files and that seemed to get it back. The only problem now is that the ai planes have no wheels, but I think I can overlook it.

Well, it gets worse. I get a message on the screen when the game crashes and it says critical process died 0XEF. That sounds horrible and I can't find out what is causing the crash. The game crashes at 50 percent loading screen. I renamed my community folder but for some reason I have four community folders so do I rename all four. I have checked the event viewer and a common name keeps coming up which is A-Volute which I never heard of. I did research and it's part of the audio in the operating system so I don't think I need to delete that but not sure. I am afraid of going down the wrong path by deleting things the computer needs. I don't have the best system but everything ran fine up until now. I don't want to have to buy an expensive computer because they changed something in the game. I am so upset and ready just to go back to P3D and forget MSFS exists.

Hi guys, I haven't played for about a week and when I start the game it doesn't load. It gets stuck at 50 percent and just freezes. Then it crashes the computer completely. My chase plane and spotty programs refuse to open as well. I didn't do anything but try to play the game. I'm pretty sure it's due to an update but that shouldn't crash my computer. Is this due to an update, have any of you run into this problem and what did you do to fix it. I know you need more technical information, but I literally just tried to play and haven't added anything new. Thanks

Thanks, guys, for the helpful information. I am so glad I posted my question here. I got excited and bought chaseplane right away because of the spotting feature, but I don't see it in the sim. I have the latest version so I don't know what the problem is. I already owned spotty and it has become my favorite addon for fs2024. I hope I can get chaseplane to work because I saw some videos and it's exactly what I need. Thanks again

Everyone enjoys the game in their own way, so please don't judge me. In P3D and MSFS2020 there was a way to watch a plane "fly" from gate to gate without me actually controlling the plane. I do not know how to fly a plane but I do enjoy spotting planes. I respect the people that fly a plane because it takes so much preparation and dedication but that's not how I enjoy the game. So my drawn out question is how can I do this in MSFS2024? I don't mind paying for a program that achieves it if that is possible. Is there a setting in the game or is this just not possible. Thank you

Hi, I just wanted to say a massive thank you for implementing this auto view function. I can't tell you how long I have been waiting for this. I wasted so much money on applications that I thought would provide this function but they did not. I even stopped playing MSFS for about a year because the ai traffic system was not good and I could not watch planes like I can now. I'm still using P3D because they have a program that does that but not in MSFS. So now I guess I can finally uninstall P3D and move forward with MSFS 2024. Again, a huge thank you because you have restored my faith in the game.
