I was hoping one of you could help me. Basically during all of the troubles we had with FS2024 at launch, when I eventually did get past the 97%, none of the identity objects (or planes… or anything else!) was loading. I skipped and accepted everything regardless as I wanted to see if I could fly. Roll on a couple of days and now everything has calmed down a bit, I want to have a go at Career. Unfortunately, I don’t seem to have an identity which seems to break the career. What I do see is this person holding a sign:
When I try and change it in the appearance the game crashes. I’ve tried deleting my local game files, uninstalling + reinstalling but it’s always the same thing.
I’ve even tried deleting my cloud save using “start shell:appsFolder\Microsoft.Limitless_8wekyb3d8bbwe!App -DeleteCloudSaves”. This works in that it resets all my settings, but as soon as it gets through to the customize your identity bit, I get this model again which I can’t change. It crashes the game whenever I try to change it to something else. Has anyone fixed this? I really want to play Career, but so far I can only do free flight and the challenges.
I hope I don’t have to wait for a fix for this to be released.
theres already numerous reports on this as i have same - not hearing anything on whether MS understand the issue and are working on it or not.
INcidently i can only fly if i spawn in air as on ground its as if im standing below the plane with head inside the cockput between the seats.
Ah, it’s good to know I am not alone then! Yes, I have the same thing with being stuck in the ground between the seats as well and can’t move. Hopefully they get a fix out for this.
For some bizarre reason, I flew a couple of free flight missions and then went back to the main menu, I saw a bald elderly asian woman as my profile character. I then clicked in and could change my profile from then on! I don’t know who she is but she’s saved my game
Not sure if someone is actively making fixes to corrupted cloud data, but I’m happy. If you’re still seeing the issue then maybe it’s something I did, though not sure what it was. Let me know if it’s fixed for you.
The odd thing about this is that it had already pre-selected an aircraft for me. It was orange with text on the back. I didn’t really think much about it and started flying. I just guessed it was a scenario or something because of the star by the airports name. When I loaded in I started flying and used the external view, the first glimmer of hope for me was that I saw a pilot model flying it as opposed to the red error model.
I’ve tried to identify what the aircraft was, but bizarrely I can’t find an exact match so far. The plane was orange and it had text on the back like it was part of a sightseeing tour or something. Maybe when you select a location like this, this is automatically loaded the first time. In any case, I suspect it was this that fixed the issue for me.
After that I tried switching into the Jetson One aircraft which again showed a pilot. I then tried using the free camera to have a look at some of the scenery. Finally I went over to Bembridge on the Isle of Wight in the UK with the Jetson One again and used the free camera some more. I went below the level of the ground accidently on one occasion trying to get some good screenshots.
I then went back to the main menu and found that on the career menu option, that lady was prominently visible on the button. I then went into Customise Identity and found that she had been set as my default.
This is pretty much all I did and fortunately for me it worked. Give it a go anyway and I hope it fixes it for you as well.
No luck with the random elderly Asian lady fix for me!
