[Working Profile] Asobo Studio Boeing 747-8F (MSFS 2024 only)This is the first and fully working profile for the Asobo Studio Boeing 747-8F (Freighter) for MSFS 2024.
This has been tested on MSFS 2024 Sim Update 2, which features an entirely different Boeing 747 compared to MSFS 2020.
The MSFS 2024 747-8F doesn't only have a different door config than the MSFS 2024 747-8i, the airplane model is different too, so it needs its own profile.
- There are no doors on this airplane that can be opened. How ridiculous is this? So this profile has no door checks.
- Since the nose cargo door can't be opened, cargo service at the nose door wouldn't make any sense visually.
- There are still two cargo services on the right side, just like with the passenger version. You'll get your cargo loaded.
- There will be stairs on 1L and one catering truck for the upper deck door. Freighter pilots need their coffee and snacks, right?
- Positions and angles of all services have been carefully tweaked, everything looks pixel-perfect.
- All current GSX services (even De-Icing, Lavatory, Water) are proper, carefully tested at multiple airports and different parking positions.
InstallationUnpack the contained folder to
%APPDATA%\Virtuali\AirplanesIf the
Airplanes folder doesn't exist then just create it.
NotesGSX Pro cannot differentiate between the 747-8i and the 747-8F as MSFS 2024 uses the same model name for both of them, sigh.
This means if you are switching from the passenger to the freighter variant, you also need to overwrite the GSX profile, then restart couatl.
Btw, Simbrief import works by downloading the MSFS2024 .pln file, import into MSFS2024 EFB, then "Send" to avionics. Multiple legs possible.
