Issue with Darkstar (Top Gun dlc)
-
Hello
I have posted this here as it's not related to a JT product, but as there are a large number of FS2020 players here, I thought I might get an answer.
I have downloaded the Top Gun dlc for FS2020 (PC). I love flying the Darkstar, but I have a small issue with it. In the centre of my PFD (page 1 - i.e., the page that shows a representation of the ground) I do not have the little aircraft symbol in the centre of the PFD. I think it may be called the Flight Path Vector Indicator. Every YouTube video I have watched of this aircraft has the symbol.
I have looked at my game settings but cannot work out if it's something in there that is not selected.
I have a lot of airport dlc from the marketplace. Outside of the marketplace I have the following installed:
- FSLTL
- Toolbar Pushback
- AIGround
- littlenavmap
- AFFlow
I am working my way through this list and uninstalling to see if it is a clash of add-ons causing this.
I have uninstalled Pushback but that has not fixed the issue.
I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Top Gun dlc. That did not fix it either.
My next step is to uninstall littlenavmap and then AIGround and AFFlow.
If none of the add-on uninstalls work, then I guess I could try uninstalling the entire game. However, I won't do this just yet as I have a new super duper gaming PC coming within the next two weeks, so I might as well just wait for that to arrive and install just the game and Top Gun dlc to see if that works.
Anyway, whilst I work my way thought the above list does anybody have any thoughts on this issue of mine? Have you experienced the same?
Many thanks.

@bpfonteyn a better place to ask this would be the official msfs forums. You have a better chance of getting an answer there.

@sorbetua Hi, and thank you for the reply.
Through trial-and-error I discovered that the issue was due to another dlc being installed. If I'm honest I didn't work out which one it was, but after a clean install of the game with no dlc, the little symbol was back in the aircraft. However, after downloading a few dlc the symbol disappeared again.
Ironically, after all that, once I got the symbol to show, I did not find it all that helpful in my navigation. So its subsequent disappearance has not bothered me.
