Yeah its working for me now. I don’t think anything changed other than just adding MORE addons. But both work for me now.
Well I can load into a flight but IDK what the heck is happening with this.
Looks like you have “Hot air balloons: Moored basket” enabled in Settings / Assistances and you’ve spawned on the runway. The wind is trying to drag the balloon - and basket - to the right. Hard to tell from the screenshot, but the balloon appears to be either deflating, or is insufficiently inflated at the moment this screenshot was taken.
I’ve not used the baloons for a while, but as shown in my screenshot above, the flydoo spawned inflated but not enough to be upright in my quick test.
I just tried with the Microsoft Balloon & am not seeing any issue either on my PC with a custom 1-knot wind:
