**Bug description:I have exported a jetway from Blender using the toolset included in the 1.1.2 SDK release. When placed in the sim in conjunction with a gate parking space, the jetway does not function at all when boarding is requested; it is still and will not animate to the plane. However, for the AI aircraft using the same gate, it extends to the correct position, but the hood doesn’t animate. The same model when compiled for FS2020 works as expected if it is included in a project built with the 2020 packagetool.

Has anyone successfully exported a working jetway for 2024 using the latest SDK? I’d be very interested in speaking with you if so. I cannot get them to work.

I have not yet made any Jetway in Blender only in 3DS. Our jetway which works fine in MSFS2020 does not work under MSFS2024 (2020 gltf, it was not yet re-exported). You cannot call the ground services to connect the jetway, the option is missing.
I’m at the beginning with my investigation but have the questions:
For 2020 do we have to re-export the jetway to make it work?
Is there already a Blender example?

THanks a bunch!

One of my user just reported that he installed the SU1 Beta and it fixed the Jetway.
