      I'm not sure how this works, but is it possible the 146 to work with multiplayer (and vatsim)? At the moment I have a VMR file that essentially just doubles loads another instance of planes model in Vatsim, so when I open my doors it does that to every other 146 in the area. In multiplayer it just doesn't work at all. I have the vaguest of memories that it has something to do with there not being a lower detailed model that can be used by the sim for the model matching?

        @melon It doesn't work in the sim at all unless you have also bought the 146. I have complained often on the MS forum about how annoying it is to see a player tagged as JU52 but see a bonanza or A330..... Really cannot understand why they don't provide a low-fi matching capability.

          @b3lt3r I do own it though and so do some friends, and it doesn't show as a 146 in MP.

            @melon That is strange because I have loaded in with a friend and we saw each other as 146s. I do also see 146s in game flown by others which are tagged as 146. (At least I think I do - could be senior moment)

                @melon You both have genric multiplayer plane options disabled in options? I had that switched on for a while because I saw it impacted performance but decided I couldn't live with it.... If you are free, I'm currently prepping at ramp 69L at EGCC

                  @b3lt3r I'm not sure honestly, I may have turned that on for performance but that was so very long ago. What server are you on, just closed my game but can reopen it pretty quick.

                      That is with 'Generics' turned off. Can see the Fenix in the background so it is loading other planes in.

                      And I need to turn my EGCC back on, default is horrid.

                            @b3lt3r I show as a 146 for you? What livery are you using? Not that it shouldn't really matter MSFS has a habit of picking random liveries in multiplayer.

                              @melon no sorry - I should be clear - I see you as a piper or something. I am using Macc EGCC and it's a downloaded Dan Air livery for the -300 as I'm flying for the Dan Air Virtual and I prefer the 300 over 100

                                @b3lt3r as we're here - let me load in as a 100 with the stock livery and see if that is better

                                  @b3lt3r I prefer the 300 as well for the most part, its what I loaded in here as with the downloaded BRA livery.

                                    @melon k - I don't have that livery so if you rejoin with a stock and it doesn't work then it's clearly borked

                                      Bingo! - The livery clearly matters (assuming you also see me as 146 now)

                                        @b3lt3r Seemingly, I wonder why though since MSFS has a habit of changing other peoples liveries mid flight anyway. I hadn't loaded the -100 since the last update either so when you first loaded in your were a 787, but reloading and loading in as a -100 seemed to work, for now at least.

                                          @melon Cool - I need to respawn in my 300 as the flight is set up for that and the VA get a bit picky 🙂
