I thought that I’ve never heard that word before because English is not my native language but I’m fine now knowing that even native speakers never heard that word before, lol.

Apparently somebody at Asobo has though!

I can’t get any of the liveries to show up for the Fenix in MS2024. In the livery manager the community folders are both set for 2020 and 2024 and still nothing. Any ideas or is this a known issue?
You can save a Simbreif profile as a .pln file in MSFS (or create one by hand and save it), then load the .pln flightplan from the EFB and once it’s in the EFB click “Send to ATC” or something like that. (I have done this in the pre-flight screen, can’t guarantee it works once you load into the airport but I guess it should).
Extra liveries show up as a separate plane, so in the plane selection menu you have one thumbnail for default Fenix livery and another thumbnail for additional liveries. It’s a bit messy with all the Fenix variants.

It works but you need to select a stand/gate first and then import the flight plan. Otherwise ATC won’t see it as IFR plan.

The liveries are not showing up. I see the a321 IAE with SL for example. The generic livery is there, and one American Airlines Livery, the other ones for that specific plane type are not shown and I can’t find them. This is the worst system design I have ever seen. Not sure why they didn’t keep 2020’s hangar set up.

Click on that AAL livery and then switch top menu from variant to livery. You will see all other liveries. I can see everything I have installed via Livery Manager or from flightsim.to.

That’s exactly what I am doing and they aren’t in there. I have prpbably 50 total liveries across all the Fenix variants. None show up.
For the liveries in the Fenix Livery Manager, you have to delete, then re-download all your liveries, this will re-install all liveries that you had in fs2020, and install them all in fs2024.
For liveries from Flightsim.to, just extract them into the Community folder for MSFS2024, which the root directory is Microsoft Limitless or something like that.
Ok thanks! That’s a huge help.

A silly question that may be the result of a suggestion: is it possible that in FS2024 the Fenix with winglets has worse performance than the Fenix without winglets? In my case the Fenix without winglets performs very well, but as soon as I load the Fenix with winglets the FPS plummets.
I understand that far more changes were needed to add the sharklets, than just changing the graphics, so I’d guess that it is possible that the two will have different performance.
I uninstalled and reinstalled the liveries as suggested. Still half of them don’t show up. No clue what’s going on.
The livery selection in FS24 is a bit borked, I find it’s a bit of a searching game to find the livery I want.

Seems like they fixed the slow EFB, but I still see slow responses from OHP buttons like BAT. There is about a 2 second delay from pushing it until it comes on.
Finally tried to start a flight, find that my (new) foot pedal toe brakes axis are both inverted so I have to press them to keep the brakes off which is not right, and for some reason the sim controller config won’t let me reverse those two axis. Any ideas?
Oh and I got to the end of the apron/start of taxiway when a Fenix license window popped up again 'Starting Fenix" then all my screens went out and lost the flight data etc. Quit. Still seems quite “flakey” in 2024.

In the controller axis click the cog and there’s an invert slider

Quite a different experience here. I had one of the best flights I’ve done in FS24 so far with this update. There was just one issue I noticed - the boarding and deboarding sounds stopped a couple of times and started over.
The licence thing is a real pain. I mean all I did was go into controller settings, came back and license thing pops up again. Maybe I’ll try your suggestion of opening the Fenix app up before a sim session instead.
