LNM and FS2024

[Timwintle1979]

Hi All,

I wondered if anybody might know? MS/Asobo have announced that their new product will include POI's and over 80,000 helipad's. Do we know yet if LNM will be able to parse this data from the BGL files supplied by MSFS? I know it might be a bit early to say yet as they've only entered the dev-alpha phase this last week but if anybody happens to know, I'd be curious.

Thanks
Tim

Hi Tim,

I don't know yet since I have no access to MSFS 2024 yet but I'll buy it at release.

Looking at the SDK documentation it seems quite the same as 2020 with just the paths adapted.

Regarding BGL: My experience in the past is that the structure received minor changes and additions only. Have to see.

Discussion also here at Avsim: https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/652764-msfs-2024-and-lnm/
Quoting myself 🙃

I'm pretty sure that SimConnect hasn't changed since this would break a lot of applications and add-ons.
This means that you should be able to use your MSFS 2020 scenery library database to plan and use LNM for flight following in MSFS 2024 in the meantime.

If anybody has more information feel free to add it to #1198
