MSFS 2024 support for Real Taxiways planned?
-
Hi! Love the product for MSFS 2020. Just did a taxi at my home airport KBED in 2024 and noticed that the taxiways are wrong.
I haven't tried loading Real Taxiways, but this made me realize that we probably need your product for 2024 because the taxiways aren't correct in the default sim.
It looks like the MSFS planner LIDO charts are correct, and the FAA charts are correct, but in game 2024 shows taxiway E as "C"... so something about the data is wrong.
I don't know if you have plans on updating Real Taxiways for 2024, but I thought this data might help put the idea on the radar. Thanks!

Thanks for the interest! It's also nice to hear from someone flying in my old stomping grounds. I was based out of Worcester for many years. When I received the Dev Alpha for MSFS 2024, I immediately tried to see how Real Taxiways would work, and found no problems with how the taxiway signs were placed on the airports. I seem to recall that Asobo may have locked down the textures that are used to generate the special markings, though. I will investigate again soon and see what I can offer for MSFS 2024 along with updates for my aircraft. Happy flying up there in New England!

Excellent. I can confirm, I just tried loading the existing mods for Real Taxiways B,C,D USA and that fixes KBED in MSFS 2024. I didn't see any problems, so it appears to be compatible out of the box. (2024 adds some trees in the middle of the open areas that shouldn't be there, but ah well. Thanks again!

I came here to find out about FS2024 compatibility. Reading your post here i will also try the fs2020 addon BS to the fs2024 platform.

@coldnebo @Black-Square Hi, I tried to install Real Taxiways on msfs 2024 using the downloaded exe, however I'm getting the "..unable to locate UserCfg.opt".
did you have to do anything special to install it on msfs 2024?thank you

If you're trying to install Real Taxiways directly into MSFS 2024, I recommend that you make a support ticket with Just Flight, since they handle all installer questions. They might say that we don't officially support Real Taxiways in MSFS 2024 yet, but I suspect they might still help you, because they are curious individuals.
As for Real Taxiways support in MSFS 2024, I would love to have already published an official update, but I have yet to figure out how to overwrite the default taxiway sign texture, even after compiling to Asobo's new proprietary texture format adapted from another proprietary texture format.

@Black-Square thanks a lot. I will check with them.
I think my confusion was that I really thought that you guys had been able to install it on MSFS 2024 using the regular installer.
thanks again.
