Hi everyone! We just wanted to let you know that the long-promised MSFS2024 Service Update 5 is out now, and Microsoft/Asobo fixed the bugs just as they promised! Sound is now audible at great distances, and the rocket smoke trail doesn’t cut off at 2000ft! Enjoy this scenery the way it was meant to, and stand by for Version 3, which will include tons of new content and improvements!!

Sorry if this has been discussed, but I couldn’t find it - is it known/intentional that this addon content is not purchasable on Xbox console but does appear in the sim on Xbox if you purchased it on PC? The dynamic/moving parts do not work, but the general KSC models do appear.

If you are talking about MSFS2024 XBox version - yes, KSC Scenery is still not available for purchase. During the testing we found a showstopper bug (complete lack of SFX and VFX) which prevented us from releasing on XBox for MSFS2024. This bug is specific to that particular version and platform. We submitted it to MS/Asobo and they verified and logged it.

The part that LETS you use it on XBox after you purchased it on PC is a bit confusing and surprising - that shouldn’t happen. But I guess somewhere in the process something leaked through. The PC version you can use is obviously not usable on XBox, because XBox version needs specific WASM tweaks, which in this case are missing. That’s why you are not seeing the dynamic part, only the static scenery.

As mentioned, we do have a 2024 XBox version that was supplied by MS/Asobo for us to test, which failed. However, with the SU5 update, we will test again - maybe that VFX/SFX bug was addressed and they haven’t updated their defects changelog in this particular case.
