PMDG General Forum

Hello, I am posting this because not sure if anyone else is having the same problem or not but I just installed the new NGX update and the latest Navigraph AIRAC. Now My FSX is freezing then CTD a few seconds later. Not sure what it is. Does anyone know what is going on now or how to fix this? Tried to do a flight with both the NGX and 777 and still crashing after take off. I have not had any problems in the past with any of my PMDG products but now I am. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you, Pablo Vazquez Sorry for the double posting... don't know how to delete this one. Thank you, Pablo Vazquez

I'm definitely getting down and dirty with the 737ng this weekend in between playing squash and mountain biking. I think I might spend the time around mediterranean destinations.

Hello All, I just purchased a new graphics card and decided to nuke my entire system and start from scratch. I also took the opportunity to upgrade to Windows 8.1 which I think I may regret, but that's a another topic all together. I installed Prepar3d v2.5 and did a few tests with the default aircraft etc.. I then installed the NGX 800/900 base package. The install went fine however I was never prompted to enter my activation code. The NGX loaded up on the runway with the VC completely unusable. I thought maybe the activation prompt window was hiding behind the simulator window but I could not find it. I attempted to uninstall / reinstall the NGX again but still no a…

Hello- So for my Sophomore high school research report, I decided to do it on PMDG. I love the community, and there is a LOT that can be covered in the simple 3 page report. I'm thinking about starting off with the history of PMDG, and where they came from and started. Through their first projects, and where they stand now. And finally, their plan for the future. Most of this, I can get by reading interviews and forum topics (EVERYTHING WILL BE CITED SO EVERYONE GETS CREDIT IF I REFERENCE TO THEIR PIECE), but some things I might need help here. Like, how would you describe PMDG's relationship with Boeing? Things like that, if I need help with, I will …

Hello all. Having recently gotten back into simming, and really enjoying the 777 and NGX, I'm curious as to what's in the future? I think I read somewhere that the 747 series was being reworked. Is this still the case? I am currently running FSXSteam, and would love to get ahold of compatable versions of these older products. After the planes I have, I am completely spoiled, and everything else pales in comparison. Matt Bernard

I purchased extended coverage but after awhile I had to do a re-install. What steps do I need to do to get my download?

Hi,On Sunday Aug. 29th at 1200z we are holding a Concorde vs. 747 race. It is based on the real-world event where Concorde flies two legs for the one leg of the 747-400.The idea is for Concorde to depart Boston Logan Intl., USA (KBOS) at the same moment as the first 747s depart Paris CDG (LFPG). Concorde will land at CDG, refuel, and make a second flight back to BOS.The aim is to get the 747 down before Concorde arrives back at BOS.IRL there was 7 minutes in it (Concorde arrived first).Real-world operations apply. All speed restrictions must be adhered to as per the published charts. There will be no magic "own speed" all the way to final for the 747. 250kts 10 nm before …

I want to download some liveries for the 737 but it says they are in the operations centre app but I can't seem to find the app.

Sirs, Im rebuilding my whole system, new Scenery, Airports, etc. And I'm changing Brands (I want to use AS Airports and my PMDG Aircraft,NGX737, 747-400,800,Dream,MD-11,B777). Could you possibly tell me what Scenery, and other Add-ons you suggest, I'm looking for a Build without, CTD's and OOM's (Out of available memory messages). Any advice would be great. Thank You...

The comments below were the last post in a now locked thread. If my comments caused the thread to be locked then this one will as well as I didn't get an answer to what I believe is a reasonable enquiry. "I noticed the cost of the P3D version of the NGX has a discount of $20 until 6 April 2015. the prices of the expansion pack for the 600-700 and the -300 for the triple 7 have a fixed price but no indication of a price rise beyond 6 April 2015. In view of the above is it correct that there will be no variation after that date for the various expansion packs and the pressure, if any, is to buy the base pack first and then buy the expansion packs when more funds a…

Came hear today to look for the new PMDG Airbus announcement thread and was disappointed when I didn't see it. Seems like there is something about it every year. This must mean it's in development! /s

Hi guys, I am not one to normally post here, but I thought I might as well.... Some of you guys know me as Goldstar Textures, and I have just released my 260th livery to AVSIM this morning... Pegasus Airlines 'Ada E.'s Special Livery' - http://library.avsim.net/download.php?DLID=189423 Have Fun Guys!!

Hello all I just came across the screenshot section for p3d poducts and as surprised. What settings, especially AA do you guys use for that? I look so.. well. different from mine. And do you edit them aftewards? Because again, WOW . Another question. What settings do you all use, to avoid OOM's etc? For P3D again?

Ops center is not showing Livery Manager or Livery Downloader for 737NGX P3D. Does this mean there are no liveries available for the 737NGX? The 777 is showing both these options.

Same airport, weather, date and time (15:56:16) in both FSX-SE and Prepar3d v2.5. All shadows are turned on in P3Dv2 (ULTRA quality). In the FSX-SE I see on the ground ahead the shadows of the tail rudder and the front of the Boeing. I think this is apparently correct because the sun at that time is positioned behind the jet, but in Prepar3d v2.5 the shadows does not exist. In which simulator the shadows is correct?Same airport, weather, date and time (15:56:16) in both FSX-SE and Prepar3d v2.5. All shadows are turned on in P3Dv2 (ULTRA quality).

Hi I purchased the 777 for P3D 6 weeks ago. On 8th March, using the Operations Center "buy now" button, which opened the PMDG store page, I purchased the 737NGX. The problem is when I log into my account it only shows the 777 purchased not the 737. The 737 is registered to a different email address. They are both the same email account, both apple icloud emails, and both mine. How can I get both purchases to show up using my one single email address and show up simultaneously on Ops Center? I think the problem was when I purchased via the buy now button I was not logged into my existing PMDG account. I stupidly thought it would recognise I already had one, giv…

Hi everyone and especially PMDG team. I think everything is in the title. For years, when browsing through a forum, you would see people answer to a newcomer "it's in the manual, go read it !". And that is definitely true. The problem is that from the NGX onwards, realism is now very high, so high that the NGX and 777 are provided with the real FCOM. So here comes my problem, some things are not simulated in those planes, but this is not clearly mentioned in the documentation. Of course, for some items, it is obvious (EFB for example), but for others it is much more hidden. I remember losing several hours wondering why in case fo engine failure at or above V1, the VN…

Hallo, i purchased 4 products from pmdg direct in from http://precisionmanuals.com/ . I can see only 3 products. I miss the "PMDG 737NGX Base Package for FSX (1861-37)". All other products can i found. 2 times i made a ticket, but i dont have an answer. Whats up? Isn't it possible to add it into your database? Is there somthing corrupt?

I originally purchased my 737 NGX directly from PMDG and have had no problem finding, downloading, or installing the original installer or any of the following updates until today. I currently have the update SP1d installed and it works as advertised but for some reason I am totally unable to find the latest update, 1.10.6461, any where in my order history as I did before with SP1d. Can anyone please speak slowly, use small words, and give me simple "Dick, Jane, and Spot" directions as to how to access this new update? Your help will be most appreciated!

Dear Support Crew, I have a ticket submitted on Mar. 22nd and still waiting for agent. Can you please take a look at it? Ticket: 0E4-1CA235D2-0424 Thanks, Zicheng Cai

Captains- A short time ago we made available all of the updates we have pending for the PMDG 737NGX product lines. PMDG 737NGX for FSX and FSX-SE: This version is 1.10.6436 and we otherwise call it SP1d. This is a VERY big update for the NGX series of products, which turn 4 years old in just a couple of months, and we are confident that it will breathe new energy into this, one of our favorite products! There are so many changes that had to be made in order to make this product compatible with both FSX and FSX-SE at the same time that we had to toss out the previous installer and give you an entire new one. This new installer, like it's big brother from …

Since running the FLight 1 utility http://www.flight1.com/files/FSXML.zip to correct my FSX LVLD I am unable to run my 747's and MD-11. The 'options.dll file error' keeps denying my access. Please help?

Here are my stats: AMD A10-6700 APU 3.70 GHz 6.00 GB RAM 64 bit operating system, x64-based processor If not what would be the main reasons?

Captains, A short update for those folks who are DVD based customers, or who purchased downloadable products from our partners at Aerosoft and who are interested in FSX-SE compatibility and obtaining the recently released updates to the PMDG 737NGX and PMDG 777 product lines: Overview of How it Will Work: During the coming week(s) we will be releasing updated executable installers to Aerosoft for the update program for Aerosoft customers. The program being put together will allow download customers to pull the new installers from their Aerosoft accounts just as PMDG's direct download customers do from their own existing orders. DVD customers will have an upg…

Just found out that the guy who did the german 1st officer voice for FS2crew on the PMDG777 was a flight attendant on the Germanwings Airbus that went down in france. he also worked on the Majestic q400.very sad news particularly as he'd just finished his commercial flight training and looks like he was about to start a very exciting part of his life.
