Default SimObject Load Order - Super Hornet (F-18) Incorrect?

Version: 1.5.3.0

Frequency: Consistently

Severity: Blocker

Marketplace package name: (Not yet released on 24 MP)

Context: After the latest SU 2

Similar MSFS 2020 issue: NONE

Bug description: The FA-18 default package gets loaded AFTER commuity mods, making our sound.xml load prior to default and thus not functioning at all. The only work around is to manually drag the load order of our Sound Pack down to the bottom of the package order tool and a restart. This seems to be an error on Asobo’s side, as our other sound packs do not have this issue currently.

Repro steps: Download/install our super hornet audio pack, use VFS Projector to inspect the sound.XML and discover that it is not using our custom version.

Hi,
Are you talking about the package “asobo-aircraft-fa18e” ? It has the package order hint “SIMOBJECTS” but you can use the order “SIMOBJECTS_PATCH” to your package. It will be able to override the default simobject packages.

Regards,
Xavier / Asobo

Thanks for this tip. I needed to update the manifest to include this line, and it works now.

Thank you!
