Now that we are all past that 97%, we have new updates on our transition to MSFS2024.
Our 2024 Compatibility Dashboard now displays a clear status for each product, showing which will be upgraded to 2024 Native and which will only go 2024 Compatible. Before I break it down to our individual product plans, here is what you can expect:
- Our previously announced 6-month window is now extended to 1-year. That means products released within one year of 19 November 2024 will receive free updates to 2024 Native versions.
- $2 Fee for products outside of this one-year window. A small fee for 2024 Native versions (unless specified below) for current owners. This low-cost approach balances fairness to you with the significant development efforts required to bring our products into the new simulator.
Timeframe
None of the items below have a specified timeframe. Nor will we attempt to estimate one, as they move from not started to "in the works" or "now available" they will be updated on the 2024 Compatibility Dashboard. Check back often, or follow our socials for further announcements.

In closing
Out of our 37 products, 30 will receive updates to become either 2024 Compatible or Native, with detailed statuses available on our 2024 Compatibility Dashboard.
Updates will roll out in phases, starting with utilities, followed by vehicles, and then scenery. If you own every //42 product, updating all supported products to their 2024 Native versions will cost just $20—and even less, if you own bundled offerings like FF/F2 Complete.
While we have a significant amount of work ahead, with timelines ranging from weeks to months for some products, we’re committed to keeping the dashboard updated with progress.
Our small $2 upgrade fee per is a way of thanking you for your patience and ensuring fairness as we deliver products that are not only functional in MSFS 2024 but better than ever.
