MSFS 2020 > 2024

I purchased the C130H through the MSFS marketplace, but bought the C130J direct from Captain Sim, as it wasn't available in the marketplace at time of purchase.  As a result, the C-130H is available in both MSFS 2024 and MSFS 2020, but the C-130J is only available in MSFS 2020. Not sure if the C130H had any updates for 2024, or if it is just native 2020, but it worked without issue in MSFS 2024 in the brief testing I did.  What is going to happen to my C130J purchase in relation to 2024?

As for now, we are working on the FS20>FS24 add-on transfer procedure, so all further CS products updates release for both platforms are pending untill we figure out the procedure. We'll keep you posted.

The above applies to the marketpace/Xbox updates as well.

I have been updating my liveries for the C-130H.  In order to get 2024 to group liveries with the C130H base aircraft you need to exactly match the ui_type and UI-createdby fields to those used by the source aircraft in the aircraft.cfg.  Then to have it sort liveries after the Captain Sim default livery, you also have to match the value used in the ui_manufacturer field. without this field match addon liveries sort before the default livery.  Usually I can work this out from the aircraft selection screen, but haven't been able to do this for the C-130H.  Can you advise what value you use for the marketplace version of the C-130H for the ui_manufacturer field please?

Have found with other aircraft that the ui-manufacturer is not the sorting field I had thought, as some sort correctly and others don't.  So am not sure what triggers the livery sorting now.

Hi Captain Sim,

I’ve been flying the C130H on FS24 and I was wondering can you guys tone down the markings on the cockpit windows as they have unrealistic heavy scratches on them and are a real distraction and immersion breaker.

Yesterday in 2020, I removed my 717 from Community, and then I repurchased it on the Marketplace with some Captain Sim liveries for my 717 and my C-130's.  I wanted to have all my CS purchases in one convenient place. 
However, now none of the instruments in the c-130's function, and my 717 has errors on the MFD's when I start in 2020 on the runway. 
steps to repair?  Delete the Marketplace versions and go back to the CS installers?  Reinstall the Marketplace versions?
Thanks.

Just an update on my issue.  Uninstalling the CS 717 did not remove the old 717 community folder.  This may have impacted my Marketplace installs.  I seem to have working instruments in the C-130J (quick 2d test).  I'll kick the tires on the whole fleet today.

Hi I tried the C130H in msfs2024 and the engine gauges don’t work. Anyone else experience this ?

Yes, also experiencing gauge issues in 2024 with the "H".  I purchased it through Marketplace and it was one of the first Microsoft transferred to 2024 for me.  I haven't notice any other issues yet.

I do not have the new sounds in 2024, just the old ones.

I should clarify, I have the old boaty sounds in the J and H.  I have the new sounds in the E.  I had purchased some liveries for the E just before I installed 2024; that could explain it. 
I have some instruments working, but they seem to stop working after awhile.

Just flew the KC-777 in MSFS2024.  It worked great until the sim bug where the mouse stops responding.  Esc out to the menu, Esc back into the flight, the mouse is now responding, but the throttle moves without adjusting thrust.  I toggle Autothrottle ON, then OFF (I'm hand flying), and the throttle responds again.  Otherwise normal flight in the KC-777.  I'll check the KC-46 next.

The KC-46 experienced the same mouse bug.  It seems like a timeout of some kind, if you don't touch the mouse controls for a certain time, the mouse goes away, and the thrust locks.  Same solution, Esc out, Esc in, toggle auth-throttle, all good.  Callouts, beta, all working.
