DA62 MOD

The DA62 Mod airplane sample can be downloaded from the Help menu in DevMode. This sample contains only a few files that are used to modify an existing modular aircraft (in this case the DA62). The purpose of this project is to show how you can mod (or "patch") existing modular aircraft with additional files.

 

 

Loading And Building The Project

In order to load and build the project in Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, you must have previously enabled Developer Mode (see here for more information). Once enabled, simply follow these steps:

 

  • Use the Open project... command from the File menu. Developer Mode Open Project

 

  • Select the file DA62_Mod_Project.xml from the DA62_Mod sample project. DA62 Mod Project Directory

 

  • The Project Editor should open automatically and show you the project mycompany-aircraft-da62-mod (if the Project Editor doesn't open, then you can open it from the Developer Mode Tools menu) The DA62 Mod Package In The Project Editor

 

  • Once the project is loaded, you can right-click on it, and select the Build and Mount option. This should be done while on the main Menu of the simulation:
    Building The LFPG Package

 

  • This will build a package from the files specified in your project. This package will be named da62-sdk-aircraft and will be output in the Packages folder created in the same directory as DA62-SDK-Project.xml:

 

  • Building the package will also install it into Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 and so you should now proceed to the aircraft selection screen, search for the DA62 aircraft (the official version, not the SDK version), and select the option to Configure the aircraft. In the configuration options you will now see a new Da62 Passengers SDK Mod variation:
