Conflict with other add-ons aircrafts

[Rookie_One]

It seems that the A320CEO and A319CEO from the MSFS Marketplace modify some stock files that prevent some features on other addons aircraft, such as Weather Radar on the Carenado addons, to work.

When I checked in the official folder for both aircrafts, I saw that there were some files in under "lvfr-airbus-a320-ceo\html_ui\Pages\VCockpit\Core" in the non-encrypted files, which seems to be default files.

No idea if there is other files that could interfere, encrypted or not

how certain are you that is our A320 and A319?

if you remove them both you don't get the issues?

I'm certain, it's only with those 2 aircrafts that cause this issue

If I remove the aircrafts, the issue disappear. And funnily enough, the A318CEO and A321NEO do not cause the issue

Note that I have no way to know if the offending files files are present in the webshop version since I do not own that version of those planes, and to be fair if there are other files that could cause the issue that are encrypted, I have no way to verify this.

Also, I tried to erase the default files that are modified that I can see, and it simply cause the default avionics to stop working for GA aircrafts(and I tested with both the default 172 in steam gauge version, and one of the Carenado aircrafts), so chance are that there is something else that is encrypted in the MSFS marketplace version that I do not see

The A318 and A321 share the same components as the A319 and A320. So this makes it more interesting.

Will check with the development team to see what can be the cause of this.

It could be possible that the files that affect other aircrafts are leftover files from before that the latest patches did not remove at that point

files installed by the marketplace shouldn't be touched by users. We suggest you remove everything and install from scratch please.

That's actually what I did :p

My point was more that if there something different on the front of the files, between the 2 add-ons that cause the issue (A319 and A320), compared to the two that don't (A321 and A318), it might simply be leftover files from previous versions that were not removed by the patching process on the latest patches, or was forgotten about

(AFAIK, MSFS use 2 format for archives before unpacking and installation of marketplace addons, with .fspackages files being full packages, and fspatch files being patch to apply over the full package, that said I don't know if the fspatch can and is also used to removed unused files during the patching process....as someone who is outside the process, for me that kind of process is like a black box, I see things happening around the process, but not what goes inside, and I have little to no interest to see what's happening inside the box)
