was a small up date last night, 350 mb and all is good again for me. Alan

what are EFB's ? is this only in 2024 ? or something I have missed in 2020 ? Thanks Alan

I started getting stuttering on all aircraft a couple of days before the update, Im on 2020. reduced all setting down to medium from ultra and still happens. watched a few videos and changed Nvidia setting to those recommended and still stutter. was working fine before on mainly ultra settings. I think something happened before the update. Alan

Hi all, I have tried the Stanstead landing challenge 4 times and failed to find the airport. Onboard instruments give no indication of the direction I need and the only help I see on on the start page where I see a couple of white building near it but the building I go to are not the right one's. can anyone give any tips ? is the auto pilot configured to get me there if I turn it on ? Thanks Alan

Mine went right last night, no idea what the problem was. Alan

Im a new user and it too 36 hours just to download the sim (2020) and I have a 500mb connection. it just get looping deleting and reinstalling parts. Alan

Had the same problem on PC version msfs2020. loading sim 7 mins , loading my local airport almost 8 mins. I timed it. have deleted everything I am not using and its made a difference of about 1 min to the sim loading times but airport loading times are just the same. Alan

worked fine, I now have the plane installed. Thanks Alan

thanks, will give it a try. Alan

I never used any installer or updater, just downloaded unzipped and placed in community is that not correct ? Thanks Alan

Hi all, download an a320 fy by wire but don't see it in my hanger, its that where is should appear ? if not how do I find it to use ? MSFS2020 Thanks Alan

All sorted, thanks for the help everyone. the only problem I have now is the double tower which is seems everyone gets and will get sorted at some point. How I fixed it I had 2 community folders one on C and one on D due to failing to change the destination drive when I first downloaded. addon placed in D dis not work some placed in C did work. I deleted the C community folder and put a virtual link in its place to the D community folder and all is working. Thanks Alan

Hi, As I said, it started install on C, I stopped it then redownloaded to D as there is not enough room on C drive. There is a community folder on both C and D and I choose where to put the files. I put them in community on D and nothing worked. someone posted a link to the file path on C which I followed and place the same files on the C drive community folder. one of the addons then worked, the other does not so even though the files says to look in D community it is not its looking at C. Have watch lots of tutorials and followed them but things are just not working how they should. Thanks Alan

usercfg.opt is on C drive D:\XboxGames\Microsoft Flight Simulator is where I set the game to go on my second attempt at loading. the 2 community folders on both C and D driver only contain the 2 files I have put in. D drive community was not found by the sim and I then followed a file path posted on here to find the C community folder and when I put Blackpool airport in that it worked but not the second blackpool mod all other files are in D microsoft flight simulator in Contents, official and update folders. Thanks Alan.

Update, may be getting closer to fixing this ! Note I on on PC not xbox and msfs2020 Seems I may have a conflict usercfg.opt says folder is D:\XboxGames\Microsoft Flight Simulator if should have been community after that but seems it did not do it. But ! The one working path for 1 item anyway is C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community The sim started loading on C and I had to stop it and then re-download to D due to space Guessing this may be my problem ? I would want to change to D and move everything but can find where I change the path ? I know I have seen it it the past the option to move it can anyone help ? Can I safely delete all the C data ?

Mine looks the same but no tower to be seen. Thanks Alan

I have no idea what the problem could be other have it working fine, just no me ! Thanks Alan

I tried 3 different one for Blackpool and none worked, its so frustrating ! Thanks Alan

https://imgur.com/a/tiHdevd the top one is the airport and works fine, the second shows but says no installed. I can tick it but install button does not show. scroll to second photo on this link https://imgur.com/a/u38ou1Y Thanks Alan

Have tried them and none work for me. I unzip and drop in community folder but nothing shows. flying over the area at 500ft and still nothing shows. the only thing I have got that worked is Blackpool airport itself Thanks Alan

Dont see any landmarks at all as it shows as not installed.

will not let me insert image will post the link not sure if it will work. scroll down, its the second picture. https://imgur.com/a/u38ou1Y I see it when I search blackpool in content manager. I do not see My library at all, Both blackpool airport (working) and the blackpool scenery show in market place

Very new to msfs2020 but not new to computers. this is exactly what I am doing. Thanks Alan

its in a folder which has other folders which I assume are in the correct positions ? it how they came in the zip file. I would not know what to move where is they are not in the right place. the download link is ablove, have a look and see what you think ? Thanks Alan

downloaded unzipped into community folder, does not show any of the landmarks but again appears in updates as not installed. I can tick it but there is no install button. if I click 2 updates its says 2 selected but only installs the one, not Blackpool.
