Just wondering, are you using Spotty26 v1.5.1? Why click Tower every time you go back to Cam, no need to do that. Once in Tower mode it stays in Tower mode when Cam is ON. If you are using FlybyO it will override any other camera mode after some seconds.

Can you clarify what you mean here?

Did you click Spotties that enables saved camera markers to be seen on the map?

You didn't mention that you had actually saved it. If it was saved, as you now say, it should appear as a Tower/Spotter camera marker on the map. Also remember (as described in the documentation) that the Tower/Spotter camera mode must be active (green) before you can click and load a saved Tower/Spotter camera marker. The same applies to World camera markers. You can also verify that the camera was saved by checking the camera.txt file in your Spotty26 installation directory. If the entry is present there, the camera has been saved correctly.

You need to save the Tower/Spotter location. Then on next session when Tower/Spotter camera is active you click on a saved Tower/Spotter marker on the map. You can save a Tower/Spotter camera location at any location in the world.

Working just fine. Good to have the missing Flyby camera in MSFS 2024. Checking out AI aircraft traffic is no very easy both from the map and the new TrafficBoard.

Just found this Spotty26 Youtube video showing the new Auto-View Takeoffs feature using the Trafficboard. https://youtu.be/WCeB1Ccquw8

The sound issue is a bug in MSFS when using the new camera system. It has been reported to ASOBO which has logged it as a bug according to a message in the SDK dev forum.

In my opinion, ChasePlane is an excellent camera tool if you're willing to replace the default MSFS camera system and create custom camera configurations for each aircraft you fly. Spotty26 takes a different approach by building on the default MSFS camera system rather than replacing it. It offers greater flexibility through map-based camera placement, allowing you to create and save camera views anywhere in the world. These views can be used not only with your own aircraft but also with AI traffic, making it ideal for spotting, flybys, tower views, and general aircraft observation.

This is an issue related to the airplane's implementation of LOD. Nothing that Spotty26 can fix I believe.

This issue is fixed in Spotty v1.4.0 coming out sooon.

I am now beta testing the latest Spotty26 v1.4 update. It has improved and even more easy camera handling. It is really as easy as it gets.

Spotty26 needs to be in focus for keyboard shortcuts to be available. Windows 10/11 only allows keyboard clciks to be "seen" by the app in focus. An XBOX controller is therefore my choice to make camera changes.

Did you try CTRL+UP/DOWN arrow?

AI traffic is all the same now, it is just that the FSLTL injector get real traffic FlightRadar24 data via Navigraph.

Real Traffic with FSLTL and Navigraph working fine, see Spotty26 Traffic Board

You are zooming in to aggresive when you are in Flyby mode.

I use Spotty26 for cinematic Flyvby views on both user aircraft and Ai aircrafts. With Spotty26 you also get a good Traffic Board to see all active AI Traffic and by a click you can follow the Ai aircraft in cinematic Flyby

I now have Cinematic Flyby by clicking a Joystick button. Nice to have the old FSX / P3D feature ack in todays MSFS.

Spotty26, Repeats for Flyby is by key O already and also with a joystick button in v1.3 coming any day now. You can also use the Xbox sticks or keyboard keys to alter the camera position during Flyby.

Spotty26 v1.3 has joystick implemented. You just click a button to switch between cockpit / Flyby camera.

I use an XBOX controller for camera handling in MSFS. You just click a button on it to activate Camera, selecting a camera mode, and move the sticks to move around the camera. Spotty26 does not need to be in focus. Using an XBOX controller is so much easier when dealing with MSFS cameras.

In imur.com, if using that, you have to use the direct link option. not the image link option. To see the direct link option you have to use the the old imur.com setting ,not very user friendly

View any airplane with a click in the Trafficboard Flyby or Tower cameras. Very easy to check out all traffic on any airport. I am using AIG as injector. Should work fine with any injector.
