This is correct - the onus is on Microsoft/Asobo to hold developers accountable that they contracted with to provide 1st party aircraft included by default in the sim. It is not the consumer’s fault if MS/Asobo did not do their due diligence in vetting partners or not having their contract language dialed in.

… or Zadma was simply referring to me for being pedantic and I’m guilty as charged

Come on guys, stop being so pedantic everyone, we all agree that I’m always right
Let’s hope my wife never reads this.
PS: sorry @Zadma if I misunderstood you, and thanks @NixonRedgrave as always.

Yeah, apologies if at any point I came off aggressive - I chalk that up to text inaccurately portraying tone I just wanted to make sure that if we are giving feedback and criticism, it’s for the people who it actually applies to. It helps all of us better understand this massively complex project, and the more direct and organized our feedback is, the more likely it is to be implemented.

I’m afraid MSFSLayoutGenerator didn’t work for me in getting the 2020 (Aerosoft) version of the Twin Otter into 2024. I followed the guidance but, I’m either doing something wrong, or it is just not possible. Either way it is, surely, incumbant on Microsoft to sort this out - afterall, that’s where my money for MSFS2024 went; following all the hype they gave a couple of years ago. Oh well, at least the weather is improving here in the UK and it looks like spring has arrived. I’ll spend the next 6 months or so on outdoor hobbies. Perhaps, IF I return to the sim in the autumn, things will have sufficiently improved! In the meantime, I’ll keep my eye on this forum to gauge what your experiences with SU5, SU6, SU7 & SU8 turn out to be. Good luck all.
Yes it does.
I couldn’t get it to work either with MSFSLayoutGenerator. I can’t enable the 2020 MP version, or, indeed disable the 2024 version which is pretty poor overall. Any tips from anyone who has made it work?
This is what I did: with your mouse Click and HOLD layout.json file, DRAG it over to MSFSLayoutgenerator.exe and release it. Thats it! You should see that layout.json date should change to your present date and time.
Is ur Twotter from the MP or 3rd party store? Will not enable in sim 4 me.
Bought it from ORBX.
mine was MP, maybe thats why some can get it activated and some not…
Yes, that’s exactly what I did - but it just didn’t work for me. To be honest, I’ve had enough of having to seek out patches for MSFS2024. I’ve not been on the sim since mid January and I’m not that motivated to come back to it at the moment. Microsoft & Asobo should be concerned, because if MSFS2024 isn’t sorted out PDQ then more and more people will be put off using it - and that will, surely, impact on their respective reputations.
