    @SkipperMacz said in Commander won't save controls profile and avatar position: I'm SURE my avatar used to exit just behind the wing on the pilot's door side, but now (for the past couple of months probably) he ends up hunkered down below the tailplane looking backwards. Is this normal? Or how do I reset or adjust the 'exiting' position? Do you have that addon installed that adds the visible passengers and copilot? I've noticed it has an incorrect pilot exit position that doesn't match the Commander 114's default exit position.

    I use the Flitesim CLS 60 and it is a fine tool, coming from the Logitech G940 FFB stick and after two years would just like to offer an offbeat thought or two. To start with, FFB can't be left once you have sampled it. It is around 30 years for me now. The big difference with the yoke rather surprised me in the way it can ruin your ergonomics and this applies to any yoke really. Not only does it take over your desk and make it hard to use your PC for anything else, but it alters where you have to sit, screen positions and seating height, etc. God help you if a significant other likes neat and tidy surroundings or you actually have to do anything productive, even work on that PC. I still have that old G940. Two of them in fact and look at them now thinking not only how much simpler, but even better how life could be. Thankfully, I have space in my man cave or kennel and my better half would kill me if I tried to move my rig within 5 yards of the house. Do I think now that my yoke is worth it? Absolutely, but a better FFB stick would now get a LOT of interest from me. PS. I did get around the issue of not being able to use the PC for anything else. I got a mini PC which lets me use another screen to do the boring stuu of life.at 90 degrees left but turns out to be even better in that using Glassout, I can network flightsim panels onto this too and has led to me going over to the dark side for the first time since FSX and fly Glass. I would never have guessed that. Just don't tell Nick...

    @afowle23 Most of the time when this comes up, it's because auto-mixture is enabled in the simulator menu. If that's not it, then please feel free to supply more details, and I will be happy to help

    @Black-Square I am very sorry to hear that not all is smooth sailing over there and that you're potentially having a rough time. Here's to hoping things have either resolved in a positive way quickly, or will do so in short order.

    Hello everyone, since there haven’t been any further updates for this aircraft since August 28, 2025, may I ask when the next one is expected to be released?

    @Jayman88 Did you check the Activation Details for Real Taxiways 2020 under the "Your Orders" tab on your Just Flight account? Unfortunately, I know that @Voice-of-Reason is away on holiday right now, but I will try to get you an answer from someone at Just Flight if one of the support staff does not see this post in short order. Sorry for the wait!

    Breaking: I found a way to solve the problem It can probably be done smarter, but the way it was solved was to delete (or rename) the Packages folder, MSFS will rebuild it after a restart, copy Bsq King Air and Asobo King Air from MSFS2020 to the Community folder and restart the sim. I am soooo happy, because now I can run the Gps via Glassout. And it turned out that I was not the only one with this problem, my brother in law had the same problem. But @Black-Square : pretty pretty please with sugar on the top: please release a 2024 version. I got cat pictures

    Thanks, a while back I posted about building a Baron 58 simpit and someone somewhere (can't remember what site) told me that they'd see me in 2 years and I'd probably hate the Baron at that point. Well it's been less than a year and I'm still flying the wings off of em

    @pieroni IIRC, Nick has said a few times that he's currently working on the latest wave of updates for the entire fleet of current BlackSquare products. I believe the Twin Commanders are next in the lineup for release after these updates, and the King Air sounds like it will be sometime after the Twin Commanders. Safe to say that Nick/JF will provide progress updates when they are ready to provide them, as they have in the past with their other products. With that in mind, do we really need to keep tagging Nick in this thread over and over asking for updates on the King Air? Safe to say he has quite a lot on his plate already: providing responses to users with support requests, working on the updates, and working on new products. You've tagged him multiple times consecutively in the past month and it didn't elicit a response, so maybe Nick doesn't have any response to provide yet. Does it really make sense to continue to do it? Excitement is one thing but this feels a little disrespectful to Nick and his time.

    @Black-Square Thanks for the response! Yeah of course it makes sense to not delay updates that are ready any further. I note on the github of one of the creators they have added the mod as a separate variant to a few payware aircraft all ready. The downside is it isnt toggleable of course. Also says "The issue with custom variants for third-party aircrafts, such as PA28/38 is that any update to the base aircraft can break the G5 unit. Due to that, it's better to request support for custom variants directly from manufacturer of the aircraft." So it seems there is a desire for it to be implemented in a similar way to the PMS50 etc. thanks.

    I own nearly all of the BlackSquare aircraft and they are great to fly, but I fall somewhere in the middle on this discussion. I would very much like to see oil consumption be part of the equation. but it won't keep me from buying more of Nick's creations. Not sure why he hasn't included it, with all the detail in other areas.

    @Helix I don't sorry. There other things that need to happen outside just writing the code.

    @Black-Square Wait, do you mean within 2026 or within 1 year from this post? Either way, looking forward to your work, which unlike another recent release, is well worth the price...

    Hi, I have a question. Can you tell me if you're developing both the Beechcraft 1900D and Beechcraft 1900C for both MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024? Thank you so much for your help. Sincerely, Connor Richey

    Appologies to Nick as quite frankly any aircraft he makes will be a day one purchase from myself. I have a real hankering for a Swearingen Merlin and I think that would go rather well in your turboprop lineup. Although i think my want of the week will no doubt change again

    I'm all for providing choices for people, especially if they draw more people to check out Nick's excellent planes. I won't be using those big screens, but I'm sure they'll appeal to a lot of folks who don't want to fly analog. Having said that, in the forums and discords I'm in for so many flightsim devs, wow, every avionics suite under the sun is being requested of pretty much every dev. I'm glad I don't have to try to please everyone!

    @Black-Square If you don't mind me asking, what do you change to make them more visible during the day? Something in the .fx file? Would love to apply that to my light mods on .to. You can DM if you'd like. Thanks Nick!!

    @Mustang said in No saving state: an 'export/import' feature on the tablet to save/load state files locally I feel the same way, and don't trust anything stored anywhere I can't keep on my desk. Unfortunately, the MSFS architecture purposefully makes it impossible to save files locally from JavaScript. The "work" folder is exclusively for WASM instruments, I believe, but don't quote me.

    @Black-Square said in Just Massively Impressed: Thanks for letting me know! I often wonder how many of my users are out there flying my older planes, versus how much of this tends to be "fad" driven. I'm the kind of person who would pick a couple of my favorite airplanes and fly them forever, so it's harder for me to imagine how some users fly something new every couple of months or even weeks! The Analog King Air was my first purchase and the only reason I still have MSFS 2020 installed on my computer. I have all your other aircraft, but I always come back to the King Air. Really looking forward to the Model 300 in MSFS 2024!!!
