Ircghost Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Yesterday I took off from LOWI after just having bought & installed it through the marketplace. Unfortunately halfway I got launched in the air through a speed bump, luckily i was at VR so I managed to keep it in the air. Also noticed that some vehicles where below the surface, so maybe a layering issue? Someone else who also experiences this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Hello, welcome to the forums. This is most likely due to the presence of the Asobo version of LOWI. If you remove that and try again, the problem should be gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ircghost Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 I'll give it a try and let you know, would have hoped with such an integrated marketplace that this is already taken care off with some logic. Maybe something for asobo to improve in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Hello, I don't know the details but on release, there was no conflict, however, after one of the many updates, some customers are finding this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfko Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) I have posted the following also in the other "LOWI runway" thread: All those runway issues are strange and I cannot reproduce it. I did run MSFS Standard via the MS Game Pass for the past 4 months and never ever had any problems with LOWI's runway, neither with the default nor with Orbx' version. I had the windsocks and VASI issues though. 10 day ago I did a complete uninstall of MSFS and then over Christmas a complete new install of MSFS Premium Deluxe using the boxed DVD set and all the necessary updates and patches via the internet. Again, the default LOWI ran flawlessly. Today I redownloaded and reinstalled Orbx' LOWI and still have not any runway issue with this aiport, no bumps (with or without snow). Even the VASIs are now fully functional again. I haven't checked the windsocks yet, completely forgot about them.

Ircghost Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 I did a check just now with the default asobo module turned off, and indeed no bumb and no low riding cars.. seems to have done the trick. Thanks @Nick Cooper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a bit of flying around LOWI yesterday and it seems as if only the VASI (PAPI) AT rwy 26 is working. At 08 it still only shows 4 white lights, no matter of the approach angle.

If you remove Asobo version now you will not be able to load a flight anywhere in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hello, that's interesting. Does that apply to every Asobo airport? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BVG-951 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I will try again later, too many other issues to solve first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternT3 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Can confirm, MSFS is ok without Asobo's LOWI and Orbx's LOWI installed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BVG-951 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 May I ask how you removed the airport LOWI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EasternT3 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 So I hadn't deleted anything, but strangely enough I have 0 folders in my official folder relating to an asobo or MS LOWI. Tbh I'm not sure what's happening, all I know is I have Orbx's LOWI working without the Asobo one, sorry I can't be more help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hello, the method that worked up to now was to either: Delete the contents of OneStore\asobo-airport-lowi-innsbruck, leaving the empty folder or: go to AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\content.xml and amend this line: <Package name="asobo-airport-lowi-innsbruck" active="true"/> to <Package name="asobo-airport-lowi-innsbruck" active="false"/> before saving the file.

BVG-951 Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) Thanks, I just deleted them from the content manager before. I don't seem to be able to start a flight from anywhere now. Edited July 28, 2021 by BVG-951 added comment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Hello, MSFS has been changed so many times but for some time now, it has silently replaced all of its own content when restarted, even though the user had disabled it in the Content Manager. The two methods outlined above both work around this unfortunate behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dutchsim Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Indeed, after every Sim Update MSFS installs this LOWI back again. So everytime it is on my checklist to remove it afterwards in the Content Manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BVG-951 Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 I am getting nowhere with this, if I take any of them out now I can't go anywhere near LOWI and the landing challenge will not load either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
