Let's get rid of those ugly registration boxes for the AI/multiplayer aircrafts once and for all!!
This mod makes invisible the registration number box of AI aircraft and other players aircraft. Compatible with sim version 1.37.18.0.
Aircraft surroundings while, taxi, flying in formation, completing the checklist... It's a very important feature for those who love simulators. And a very ugly and unimmersive detail, are the empty registration number boxes from the surrounding aircrafts (and now much worst with the new aircrafts and liveries without white fuselage). All the beauty created by the 3D artists vanishes with those white stickers, looks like the kitchen fridge xD
I readed about it on other threads and I don't belive Asobo hasn't fixed it yet. 2 years of updates and this still hasn't been solved. Tired of waiting and wasting hope every update to see this solved, I decided to investigate why happen this. Found a really simple trick to hide the white box on AI/multiplayer airplanes. Editing the visibility of the registration number inside the .gltf files. Only the LODs higger than 00, because the 00 is for your own aircraft.
-Installation:
Place it in the community folder. If you change the foldername, be sure prefix with ZZZ to ensure those files are loaded after the official ones.

I opened a thread at the official forums with the hope we are listen. https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/finally-a-fix-for-registration-white-boxes-for-ai-mp/565426
Hope you like it. Best regards.
You need install this if you have installed the microsoft-aircraft-pilatus-pc6, if not, you don't need to download this if you don't look very close to those aircraft, they are hardly noticeable changes:
Asobo_A320_NEO - Doors decals are now visible in other LODs.
Asobo_A320_NEO_Livery_S7 - Doors decals are now visible in other LODs.
Asobo_B747_8i - Doors decals are now visible in other LODs.
Asobo_Bonanza_G36_Livery_Kenmore - Eliminated unneeded modded files.
Asobo_C172sp_AS1000_TowPlane - Included the LOD00 because it isn't flyable by the user (requested by hugojans).
microsoft-aircraft-pilatus-pc6 - Official reworked/renamed model.
Hello, this is working great. Could you help me apply it to the 152 Aerobat. Maybe explain what you are chaging in the .gltf files. I found the
Didn't seem to work for me. The white boxes are still there.
Great, thank you
Great, thank you so much!
Please include in your next update also the Zlin Savage Cub: many of us are fond of bush flight and flight very often on the Savage 😉
Awesome! And by the way if you haven’t already could you also do one for the a310
Very nice! Indeed, the white boxes bugged me from the very beginning. Good detective work to figure out how to get rid of these boxes. Could you also do the SR22? Thanks!
Genius, thank you.

Yeah, I just tested the glider tow method and this MOD, at this time, doesn't work in that situation, because I just see they programmed it to force to load the LOD00 models (the most detailed ones). What means that graphically, the tow plane is the same as our piloted plane and as I mention in the description, I didn't modded the LOD00 because we like to see the registration number on our piloted planes. I don't know why they programmed that, it has no sense model the tow plane with different LODs if they force to view only the LOD00 and we can't pilot the Asobo_C172sp_AS1000_TowPlane, or am I wrong and yes we can fly that aircraft? If we definitely can't fly it, I will also include in the MOD the LOD00 from Asobo_C172sp_AS1000_TowPlane in the next update. The other planes you mention don't have tow model so I mustn't modificate their LOD00 for the reason I mention before.
Meanwhile, what we can do in this case, is mod it manually avoiding the sim loads the LOD00.
For example with the C172:
1 - Open with notepad (first backup your original file) YOUR_SIM_INSTALLATION_FOLDER\Official\OneStore\asobo-aircraft-c172sp-as1000\SimObjects\Airplanes\Asobo_C172sp_AS1000_TowPlane\model.towplane\Cessna172SP.XML
2 - Replace the text Cessna172SP_LOD00.gltf with Cessna172SP_LOD01.gltf
In that way the LOD00 never will be loaded. And when we are not using gliders and tow planes, restore the original file.
With the other planes you mention, the file is:
- YOUR_SIM_INSTALLATION_FOLDER\Official\OneStore\asobo-aircraft-dr400\SimObjects\Airplanes\Asobo_DR400\model\DR400_LYCOMING.XML
- YOUR_SIM_INSTALLATION_FOLDER\Official\OneStore\asobo-aircraft-savage-cub\SimObjects\Airplanes\Asobo_Savage_Cub\model\Savage_Cub.xml
Hope it helps! Thanks for notice that 😊

In other hand, meanwhile we wait to they optimize it and create LODs, what you can do to hide the registration box in other planes, is edit with Notepad the .xml file that loads the exterior model, in this case the AnalogTBM_EXT.xml. ATTENTION! First backup your file, one simple wrong character will broke the aircraft. Add at the end of the <.Behaviors> element, but inside it:
(Delete the . after every < simbol, I write it because I don't know how to insert XML code in comments and the text is invisible if I don't write .)
<.Component ID="WINDSHIELDINT" Node="WINDSHIELDINT.007">
<.UseTemplate Name="ASOBO_GT_Visibility_Code">
<.VISIBILITY_CODE>(A:IS USER SIM, bool)<./VISIBILITY_CODE>
<./UseTemplate>
<./Component>
The reason I don't include a .xml modded file in this Fix mod is because it would be a chaos everytime companies update his products, we would need to be constantly updating the mod and that's not feasible. But as I said, adding this code yourself will be enough to improve visuals of your formation flights meanwhile they optimize his product. When they optimize it, you can tell me and we will try to do it again.
Hope it helps.
Regards 😊

do you need something ? If yes how can I do ?
pacha35
we are trying to fly patrol with 3 TBM850s (Black Square) and, of course, the identifications of the other planes are obscured (in white).
Could you modify the file that allows these elements to appear?
I can send you the elements to modify if you wish.
Thank you for your reply,
