Dynamic registration not showing up
-
First of all, thanks for updating the Duke to 2024!
I was in the process of converting my liveries for the Turbine Duke to 2024 when I noticed that my dynamic registration wasn't showing up. What's more, your default liveries aren't showing the dynamic registration either (though I admit I only tested one, but am assuming it's an across-the-board issue).
I may have the potential solution but it requires a very minor edit to the model, specifically the material ID for the dynamic registration mesh. The '$' should be removed. Please see the relevant screenshot from the 2024 SDK https://docs.flightsimulator.com/msfs2024/html/5_Content_Configuration/CFG_Files/panel_cfg.htm.
I've actually confirmed/verified this in a Beaver mod I created with my own registration mesh and not including the $ prefix.
I'm pretty convinced this will resolve the dynamic registration not showing issue.
Thanks!

Unfortunately, I had this brought to my attention many moons ago. I tried it, but to no avail. After much more extensive testing, I was able to determine for myself that there was something hard-coded in MSFS 2024 regarding their registration JavaScript files. Since I use my own custom solution, this was not being loaded at all by the simulator in some circumstances. Fortunately, I’ve been told this is fixed in SU4, but I have been unable to confirm it for myself while traveling.
