FS2024 has two Community folders, one called just Community, and another called Community2024. Can anyone point me to some 'official' documentation or comments by Asobo that indicates which of the two Community folders is scanned first when the sim is searching for an aircraft file to load? It makes the most sense to me that the Community2024 folder would be searched first, but I would like to verify that. Thanks, Al

Is that a general AVSIM image limitation, or just something particular to you own computer setup? And thanks for the feedback on the ClearSkies app. Al

What's the downside to clearing these caches?

After the SU5 update, I was surprised to see Tobi as one of my controllers on the MSFS Controls setup screen, even though I don't own a Tobii. Turns out the problem was my yoke PID (Product ID) and VID (Vender ID) were both 0000. After updating these IDs with the help of the yoke's designer, Tobii thankfully "disappeared" from my controller list. The sudden appearance of Tobii has happened to a few others, reasons why currently unknown, so I'm curious how widespread this problem is, and what changed in SU5 to precipitate this. Thanks, Al

My "Tobii problem" is fixed! Chris replied almost immediately to my email to [email protected] and sent me instructions on how to download and use a utility to update the yoke PID and VID. Was not difficult and only took about 15 minutes or so, Outstanding customer support! Thank you Chris! Al

KKLEE, I have the same "Tobii problem" and will try contacting Chris. Can you describe how you were able to fix the yoke -- was some kind of firmware update required to update the PID and VID? Thanks, Al

Seems the problem is the livery needs to be updated unless it is one of the standard Flysimware liveries that comes with the plane.

Is there a way to switch to ver 0.5.0.0 while preserving my current settings? Also, I have forgotten, are there separate versions of the app I have to download for FS2020 and FS2024? Thanks.

My current app version is 0.4.6.0 - test2 The new update that fails is version 0.5.0.1 - test2 Thanks for the help, Al

Auto FPS is now not connecting to the latest 2024 sim and when I click on an update asking if I want to load the latest Auto FPS test update, I get an error message that says File does not exist at the given URL. What do I need to do to fix this? Thanks. Al

Make sure you have the latest version of the binding app, ver 1.6 (shows in lower right corner). There must be 1000s of Lear owners using this binding script successfully, really strange you are having this problem. When you contacted the developer what did he say? Al

Make sure the app hasn't just minimized to the task bar. That's what happens in my case. Al

My understanding is the departure airport history is not saved if the sim is in Developer mode. So if you do have Developer mode on, try turning if off, then exit and restart the sim to see if that makes a difference with departure airport history. Al

Yes, StarHawk! I knew that, don't know why I used Skyhawk (age problem maybe 😕), but I fixed it above). Al

Here are the StarHawk pictures from ValinHawk. He and his wife built the StarHawk.
