[All sorts of problems after installing scenery]

So, after I installed this airport yesterday, MSFS has suddenly decided I need all of these mandatory updates. What happened is the following:

• Downloaded the iniBuilds JFK airport and enabled via Addons Linker.
• Uninstalled the stock Asobo JFK airport.

After that, suddenly MSFS said I needed these mandatory updates and after I downloaded several gigabytes of them, I was told on the main screen there were essential updates I needed to add, even though my content manager shows no such updates needed and my game updated to the latest version.

Long story short, I performed a clean reinstall of MSFS and everything looked to be back to normal, until about 30 minutes later it started over with the same original problem. So, right now I am in the midst of reinstalling another 130 GB of updates.

So is it coincidental or would the uninstallation of the stock JFK cause all these issues?

[Scenery not loading]

Thanks guys - I've not tried again, but I did use the Layout Manager tool suggested on Discord and that fixed the problem. 🙂 

[Scenery not loading]

I downloaded the scenery this morning and enabled it through my mods manager and deleted the default one before starting a new flight, but the new scenery isn't showing.

Xbox or PC? What version?

PC

[Question about gear wear and tear]

Hmm...it might be worth it then to make that more clear on the store page, as it says: "Custom maintenance functions: Engine oil levels, APU oil level, Hydraulic fluid level, wheel brake wear and tire wear." That makes it sound like it's more than just visual, and I know all along people on various sites have been under the impression that it physically changes the performance of the plane.

What exactly do you mean with Manual mode? I'm not aware that the FMC has a manual mode.

When we reached the next waypoint, instead of continuing on towards the next one we starting flying around in circles. It was then I realized the plane was no longer in heading or nav mode and needed to be manually steered back on course.

[Flashing text on PFD during approach phase]

I'll try to remember the next time I see it, yes. 

In the meanwhile, it's the text in the DME readout area - it looks like a Z-fighting issue, where multiple layers of numbers are trying to be rendered at the same time.

Sounds like you nearly stalled and THR L activated. But without a video / screenshots it's difficult to say.

Maybe, but it's been so long now I don't remember. 😄 But I've made a mental note to keep an eye out for problems with this in the future.

[Less "clutter" around plane at parking spots]

When starting a new flight from your typical parking spot, there is typically an excess of ground service equipment around the plane - 2 GPUs (the one that spawns by default with the plane, plus the one that is part of the airport scenery), etc. If the player is using GSX, it would be nice if these "extra" pieces of equipment would be culled out somehow so there isn't this cluttered mess when I start a new flight.

[NE Parking Positions marked as "too small" for the A300 in GSX]

The other problem with this is that when I look for an available parking spot, all spaces are listed as too small. So, while I've disabled the message from appearing, this other problem remains. 

[Nav issue after activating secondary flight plan]

After I activated my secondary flight plan and reactivated NAV mode, the FMC went into Manual mode when we reached our next waypoint. I had to input a Direct To Waypoint procedure to get us back on course. Is that how it should be?

[Typo in aircraft.cfg files]

In both aircraft.cfg files, there is a typo in the following line:

icao_manufacturer ="Aibus"

[Missing button sounds]

I've noticed the following buttons have no associated sound with them:

• Glideslope warning test (just to the right of the captain's altimeter)
• The VHF 1-4 buttons on the pedestal

[Altimeter setting on EFB]

I've noticed in some videos that some people have inHg on their EFB takeoff performance page, while I cannot get it to change from HPA to inHG via the Settings screen. Is this issue still being investigated?

 

[Freezing Cockpit and Cabin]

A few of your temperature knobs are set almost all the way to the Cold setting.

[KMEM ILS Runway 27 - no DME readout]

When landing at KMEM on runway 27, I received no DME signal from the ground. The frequency is supposed to be 108.7, course 273 degrees. Could someone check and see if it is working properly or if something is indeed wrong with it?

[Repeated CTDs when trying to load a flight]

I have had at least nine CTDs in a row tonight trying to load the freighter version. This is beyond frustrating:

[Come on Guys, Your In manager has quit working, FIX please.]

So, what does it take to get a response from anyone here about this?

[IniManager crashes each time after 200mb download]

I send you both a DM with a logging enabled version of the iniManager, please test with that one and if the issue is still persistend there, please DM me back the log 🙂

Would it be possible to get that too? I am stuck right now without a working version of the A300 and would really like to be able to use the new version this weekend.

[Come on Guys, Your In manager has quit working, FIX please.]

I have to agree - this app right now is a piece of junk. It really shouldn't be that hard to download and install an update.

[App crashes and then does nothing when trying to update]

I tried removing it from my Addons Linker folder, and I re-ran the app. And...it crashed again after getting halfway through the update process.

This is not good, guys. 

[App crashes and then does nothing when trying to update]

As the title says - I tried to update the A300 for MSFS today and it crashed twice, and now the third time it just sits there saying "downloading" and nothing happens. 

[DECEL option on MCDU]

In the manuals I have read, there is a mention of using the DCEL mode on the Flight Plan page to slow the aircraft down to green dot speed if it has passed the TOD marker but descent clearance has not yet been given. However, I do not see this function available:

 

[Landing gear lever animation not working?]

Update: nope, it was me. 😄 All is working properly now!

[Landing gear lever animation not working?]

Yep, it looks like an AAO problem, as the default keyboard bindings work fine. 😞
