A Pilots Life 2 vs. MSFS 2024

Hi All

Could someone pls explain me in simple terms what I have to do to make APL2 work with MSFS 2024? Thanks a lot!

Did you download FSUIPC to be able to connect APL2 to MS2024?

Yes - I was using APL2 with MSFS 2020 - but I don’t know now what to do. It is the latest FSUIPC - this I can tell

Try this:
1 - Launch FSUIPC
2- Launch MSFS2024
3-Launch APL2. You should see at the bottom from the DASHBOARD tab:

  • Server Connection should be green (connected to APL2 server)
  • Flight sim connected (this should be green if FSUIPC is running)
  • Flight Stage should be green if APL2 is now connected to MSFS2024

Give it a try and report back :slight_smile:

But I remember having heard I have to “copy something from my old MSFS 2020” community folder to my new 2024 community folder? Thing is, I no longer have my old MSFS 2020 community folder… You mean it’ll work “just like that”?

Gonna test :slight_smile:
Thx mate!

It worked! Now I only have to find out why I can’t load the simbrief flightplan into the JustFlight RJ100. I know how to do in MS2020 and I adapted the download folder for the SB downloader to reflect the correct folder for MS2024. But it does not find the plan (not in database)…

But we are a step closer - thanks!

Put your simbrief name in the EFB and load it directly into it.

I have that - and the flightplan is loaded and thus also the weights and fuel is all OK. My problem is with the FMC. Normally we have to save the flightplan to a specific JF folder and then enter in FMC Company Route e.g. LSZHLEMG - only that this does not work - despite me having saved this flightplan into the correct JF folder. It worked before with the 146 in MSFS 2020 and I even think it once worked in MS2024 with the RJ100 but now it seems not.

Quite strange…

Ah yes… Go to INDEX, FlightPlans and then select the correct one there.

Yes - tried that - when I hit Flightplans it opens a screen that is empty and that says “Flightplans 1/1”.
It’s weird really…
