Analog Baron in FS24
-
@felixfer I have the Premium (and therefore Deluxe) versions of 2024, but from what I understand, if you bought the Deluxe version of 2020 you also got all the new versions of the Deluxe aircraft from 2020 in 2024 (just not the new 2024 Deluxe aircraft - like the Albatross for instance.) When I go into My library in the Marketplace, I see a group of 2020 Deluxe aircraft and another group of 2024 Deluxe aircraft. I disabled the Baron from the 2024 group and enabled the Baron from the 2020 group (which was disabled by default) and then put the Analog Baron files in the 2024 Community folder and all was well.
@ppmd THANK YOU SIR, you are my absolute hero!

I can't believe that I finnally I have this beautiful bird in the 2024 sky, thanks to your absolute kindness. I have no tested all the systems but the analog Baron takes off, flies and lands, and looks magnificent! Thank you, thank you, thank you -
@ppmd I have msfs2024 premium de luxe and 2020 premium de luxe version and have tried it with disabling in msfs 2024 the inibuilds baron and enabled the 2020 baron ( was showing not creator approved ) and copied the blacksquare baron folder to my 2024 community folder, but with me it did not work I only had the a part of the inside of the plane. Have you got any idea?

@hgroen As you can read above, the Baron has encrypted files... and that has proven to be a show stopper..

@hgroen @Bert-Pieke I have the Black Square Baron working in MSFS 2024. Here's what I did.
- Go to Marketplace then My library.
- Find "Standard to Deluxe Upgrade" (It is a pack with 15 items. There is also a MSFS 2020 Deluxe Upgrade which is different - we'll get to that in the steps below!)
- Find the Beechcraft Baron G58 by Microsoft/Inibuilds and disable it. (I think I restarted the sim after this step but I'm not sure it is necessary to do so.)
- Go back to the Marketplace/My library and find the "MSFS2020 Deluxe Upgrade" (It is a pack with 10 items)
- Enable the "MSFS2020 Beechcraft Baron G58 Textron Aviation" (Again I restarted here but not sure if that is necessary or not.)
- Add the "bksq-aircraft-analogbaron" folder (purchased/downloaded from JustFlight) to the MSFS2024 Community folder.
When you go to Free Flight and then select an aircraft you should see "Black Square Baron 58 Analog Instrumentation" You can then select Configure and on the Variant screen, you will see "Livery Example" and "Default Grey". Livery Example is the "regular" Baron and Defualt Grey is the 58P. After you select the "variant" you can access all the liveries for each type under "Livery"
I hope that helps and that you get it working!

@ppmd Clever... the Marketplace is opening up!
Prompted by your post, I have added a revised panel.cfg file for the Asobo Baron that replaces the G1000 with the 2024 version, which supports flight plan loading from the EFB. This is getting better and better![VCockpit01]

@ppmd I had already tried this but even with the blacksquare in my community folder I dont see it. It comes up with the kenmore livery and then i get only a frame when I am in the outside view. If I choose the default I do get the glasscockpit. So I have no idea what is the problem. I only have moved my community folder to the drive where msfs2024 is installed so noit the default. But all mods that are in that folder are working fine.
I have no idea why it is not working with me, but thanks for your reply. -

Thanks very much @ppmd, I followed your steps and was able to bring my FS2020 BlackSquare G58 thru to FS2024. I had to do the deluxe upgrade and then copied the bksq-aircraft-analogbaron folder from my FS2020 community folder into the the FS2024 community folder. I initially could not locate the G58 and had to use search but appears to work. Great stuff and thanks again.
