Update on MH60 Release on Marketplace:

MSFS2020

  • We are approved for release on FS20. This should put us at the next available release window, on Thursday (subject to Marketplace, should have official confirmation on Wednesday)

MSFS2024 SITUATION

  • The Native FS24 version continues to throw an error (the infamous “red triangle” error) upon ingestion. No error logs or explanation have been provided as to why this occurs. Communication from MP team regarding the issue has been very limited.
  • We have attempted to resubmit the package with several changes made (various blocks of code commented out, in an attempt to identify and narrow down the issue), unsuccessfully. It seems that continues to be a problem on MS Side, potentially linked SU3 (versioning error).

MSFS24 ACTION PLAN
This ultimately has an impact on us - both reputationally and financially. And given that we don’t see a resolution in the immediate term, we have decided to proceed as follows:

  • We have made the necessary changes and actions to make the FS20 ported version of MH60 available on MSFS2024, on release day. This means, you purchase the aircraft in FS20, and get it on both FS20 and FS24.
  • In FS24, the aircraft may appear as “Not Creator Approved” temporarily. Minor bugs may exist due to porting, use at your own risk.
  • This also means that various FS24-only features will not be available. No Tablet EFB, no interpolated rotor blur, no external actionables (walkaround mode).
  • Marketplace Release for FS24 is unlikely for this week. We could make the ported version available, but we really don’t want to, until the FS24 Native version is ready. FS24 build has been developed separately for a reason: to make use of the new technologies in full.

Update: shortly after posting this, we have received information that the FS24 ingestion issue is being looked at. In any case, release this week is unlikely, so we are sticking to FS20 + Ported version.

A++ on the transparency! That is how it is done!

Agreed. The open communication and updates is highly appreciated. Thank you @CorrelateTuba06

The Market Place remains to be a train wreck of epic proportions. I feel sorry for everyone who has to rely on it.

Also release on Mondays but lower quantities.

There is a series of videos by Captain Kenobi on the complete operation of MH60

Your ref chopper is the new Danish Seahawks!? Instabuy!

We actually fully surveyed a Danish Romeo for references :wink:

Considering the mighty Royal New Zealand airforce has ordered an eye watering five… FIVE new MH60s… will you guys consider a mock kiwi roundels for your next paint shop

I’m thinking about asking in the discord already mentioned about it the fact we planning on some that is

This might be a stupid question but when it’s released on marketplace how may I require the bird if I have 24 on Xbox? Will I have to download 2020?

It will NOT release on FS24 Marketplace at this time, only FS2020 Marketplace (and automatically ported over to FS24, but not creator-approved)

FS24 Marketplace to come at a future date, when the ingestion issues are finally resolved. We hope to have a solution soon, but we would need collaboration from Marketplace team for this one.

Basically yes. Download 2020, purchase the aircraft there, then go back to 2024 and go to your library. You’ll have to activate it for it to show up. Just know that there is a chance that there will be bugs and some things might not work as intended.

This is what I had to do with the CRJ, as the devs for that aircraft were having the same problem with ingestion into 2024.

The MH60 is out on msfs2020 on Xbox :smiley::heart_eyes::heart_eyes:

Well, once again you guys are faster than I am!

MH60 is out on MSFS Marketplace for FS20 (PC and Xbox)!

The FS24 Ported version is also now available. Please note that it must be purchased through FS20, and since it’s not an officially creator-approved release, some bugs may be present.

We continue to work with Marketplace Team to resolve the ingestion issues, and hopefully have a FS24 Native release soon on Marketplace.
