Hi Hannes,
The Saitek panels have never been properly implemented in Afs2, some knobs work approximately, some other do not work or do weird things. The magnetos key belong to the latter category. It has been reported a few times years ago until we finally gave up expecting a fix.
Cheers
Antoine
Last time I asked was in 2019, see this thread.
At that time, IPACS hadn't implemented it.
Cheers
Antoine
It should work in the extra user folder as far as I know, so we'll investigate this after the Easter holidays
Have you tested it yet by chance?
I reported this issue a few times years ago, that the addon structure didn't work in the user-defined folder.
IPACS eventually agreed it would make sense, but I don't know if anything has been implemented yet.
I stopped using the user-defined folder for that reason.
The clumsy scenery structure should definitely be avoided, only leads to a mess.
Cheers
Antoine
ok, thanks for the insight guys! But yeah I wish there were an easier way to do airport developement. Imagine all the airports the community can spit out
Well, you just need to cross the street to convince yourself... if you know what I mean
In my opinion, I think it would be better if IPACs created a tool that made airport creation way easier.
Definitely.
Please, how I do that (upgrade to 2.0) on Steam? It seems there is no update nowhere...
Thanks,
Richard.
If you have the Steam version it should update automatically. Unfortunately Steam doesn’t mention anything on the product page.
You can check your scenery update status by having a look at Charles de Gaulle airport : if you have a ground polygon and 3D static aircraft, then you have the V2.0 release.
If you don’t have the Steam version but purchased from FranceVFR please contact them.
Good luck
Antoine
(...) ich habe VFR Paris Scenery Steam,würd es automatisch auf die 2.0 aktualisiert??? Steam
Danke Enrico
Ja, es sollte so sein
Gruss
Antoine
Wenn es so ist, möchte ich mich in aller Öffentlichkeit bei Lucas Bravo, Ihnen und Denn Entwicklern entschultigen.
Tut mir Leid.
Enrico
That's ok, it was merely a misunderstanding.
Let's see when France VFR releases the GA Airport pack.
Cheers
Antoine
Es sind nur diese Flughäfen vorhanden!!!
No..LFPX und No..LFPK!!!
Then you don't have the France VFR Paris - Ile de France VFR AIRPORT Pack...
Quod erat demonstrandum... 
Antoine
Das ist LFPZ
Yes, LPFZ St-Cyr belongs to the Paris IDF VFR base scenery, together with LFPN Toussus-le-Noble and LFPL Lognes.
LFPX Chavanay, or LFPK Coulommiers, for instance, belong as well as 9 other GA airports to the France VFR Paris - Ile de France VFR AIRPORT Pack your report having downloaded from Steam. Could you please show some snapshots ?
Thanks in advance
Antoine
Über Steam, es hat automatisch runtergeladen!!!
Heute Steam Ubdate mit VFR Airport Pack!!!!!
Selbst wenn es eine Desktop version wäre,sieht es sch...aus!!!
Achso,und an LUCAS BRAVO,bitte erst Lachen wenn man von der Materie Ahnung hat
Amazing, because I don't have it in Steam... everything that has been updated so far is the Paris - Ile-de-France VFR scenery, to match the new folders convention in Aerofly FS2.
Charles-de-Gaulle is out of scope of this product, as stated. It has just received a textured polygon to enable runway usage and remove aircraft from the ground texture. It's a free extension that however doesn't make a detailed airport.
Can you please show us a picture of Chavenay airport, for instance ? or Coulommiers ?
Thanks in advance
Antoine
Das kann doch nicht Ihr ernst sein,haben Sie das DLC mal genauer angeschaut (VFR AIRPORT PACK über Steam)??
Wow, did you get a test copy of the pack? to my knowledge it wasn't released yet...
Just wondering... 
Antoine
The Regional scenery update has been released by Xmas, should be available on Steam anytime soon.
First official snapshots of the long awaited France VFR Paris - Ile de France VFR AIRPORT Pack, ready for release as an extension to Aerofly FS 2 - France VFR - Paris-Ile-de-France DLC V2.0 for a Happy New Year 2021 to all !
11 photo-detailed GA airports spread over Ile-de-France + a free extension to LFPG Charles-de-Gaulle major airport with a textured ground polygon.
Check the images HERE in the Gallery - Can you recognize and name them all from snapshots?
Make sure to first update Aerofly FS 2 - France VFR - Paris-Ile-de-France DLC to the V2.0 (free update on Steam. Other channels please contact FranceVFR).
Best wishes to all of you
Antoine

When I select any location in the Paris landscape either in the air or on the ground from the location menu then attempt to fly, it crashes to the Steam menu. If I fly from Amsterdam to Paris everything works fine until I get to the Paris area then crashes back to the Steam menu.
Please see attached TM.log file
Thank you so very much for your help
Thank you for the details and log file.
It says you have a GTX 1070 graphic card with 8Gb VRAM and driver 452.06, do you confirm? (if yes, then it should be ok)
There are warnings and errors in your tm.log.
EDIT :
You apparently manually moved scenery files to a custom location, leading to double entries. According to IPACS, you should first fix this before troubleshooting further.
Moreover, the log file was created while in beta channel - are you sure you tried opting out ?
Hope IPACS would provide some further advice if reading the thread.
In the meantime :
- do you confirm the log file you shared was recorded just after AFS2 crashed to Steam? if not, please do it and share again
- have you tried other aircraft (you started with the EC135, please check with a stock aircraft like the C172)
- please give your system time to load the scenery without pressing keys or swapping windows...
- if nothing helps, I would advise deleting the scenery and reinstalling from Steam, as the case may be some file got corrupted...
Cheers
Antoine
Display MoreJust downloaded from steam the Paris add on
Aerofly fs2 crashes if i try to start flying or on the ground anywhere in this region. Seems to work fine everywhere else
I have the latest beta, latest Drivers
Any help would be greatly appreciated
TIA
Dave
I just gave it another try, but it loads perfectly here.
What do you mean by crash, does AFS2 crash to desk ? At which time does it happen, during loading or once in the aircraft ?
Could you please attach your tm.log report so that we can have a look at it ?
Thanks
Antoine
None of these. Not interested in bus driving... only GA aircraft for me
Cheers
Antoine
What mesh source did you use ? Compiling Level15 doesn’t make much sense I’m afraid unless you have a 0.5m dem or even lower, which I doubt.
Cheers
Antoine
I used Aeroscenery to recreate the scenery of Maldives where there are mountain elevations but with the scenery that I created don't show the mountainous elevations in Aerofly. Just flat mountain pictures. How to convert them? I mean how can I elevate the mountains?
Well, knowing the highest elevation in the Maldives it 2.4 m AMSL, then you'll need a very accurate mesh...
Like buying a boat the happiest day will be when you sell it, not when you buy it.
Well, I don't think one much sells second-hand AFS2 aircraft...
