    Hi! Every time I try to download the 737NGX base package, it starts downloading and then stops in the middle of the download. The download starts around 4 Mb/s and then randomly throttles back to 0 and never restarts. Any ideas as to what is going on? Also, whenever it does finish it says that there was an error with the .zip file. Thanks!

    Dear PMDG: First of all i am amazed with the quality and service of your products, especially the PMDG 747 queen of the skies. PMDG made FSX really fly, and took it to a whole new level of neatness and realism. And because i trust that your products are 100% well made before they are available for purchase, i am requesting that you would make an FSX PMDG Boeing 787 DreamLiner. I hope that you consider making it in 2010 alongside or after the upcoming PMDG NGX for FSX. Sorry if i have posted this thread in the wrong forums. It has been an honor writing this request to the best FSX addon making team, the PMDG. …

    Howdy all, I'm looking for a new addon. Decided on PMDG for sure - not sure which one. I have the iFly NG as well as the NGX.. And average 15 frames in each. This is acceptable for me given my rig 2013 MacBook Pro 2.9 GhZ i7 Haswell (usually runs around 3.3 with Turbo) 8GB RAM Intel HD 4000 GPU (not great, I know. But this is a work issued machine and I simply cannot afford $1500+ to build a new rig) 1TB SSD My only reservation with the T7 is graphics. From what I've gathered it will probably work similar to the iFly. Any opinions? I need something that will be a long-hauler (occasionally set-and-forget). What say you all?

    I want a simulator that looks like I have just been dropped into an HD video. I want to fly an AC that is all PMDG and Accu-Sim combined. I want to be able to do a walk around preflight and accurately check all aspects of my plane. I want all of the traffic in my sim to look and fly as well as my AC. I want an Air Traffic Control that will respond to what I do and the weather at hand (even if I have an emergency). Of course I want weather radar but more than that I want my aircraft to react to the weather correctly (turbulence, wake turbulence, icing, up & down drafts, real wind shear etc.) I want my aircraft to break in flight just because it does not because I asked…

  8. Hi,Over the weekend I wrote a small program ‘FSX MyConfig’ to make life of us flight simmers a bit easier, at least I hope so.As discussed in a recent thread e.g. TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD resets (from 4096) to 1024 every time the FSX display configuration is changed. This applies also for CLOUD_COVERAGE_DENSITY and LOD_RADIUS. Maybe there are more, I don’t know.‘FSX MyConfig’ automatically restores your preferred parameter values as kept in the configuration file ‘fsx.cfg’. I tested it with Windows 7 and XP. The program needs not to be installed, just copy ‘FSXMyConfig.cfg’ to the ‘fsx.cfg’ folder and copy ‘FSXMyConfig.exe’ to an arbitrary folder. You can edit ‘FSXMyConfig.cfg’ …

    Basically how is this going to work? Steam has a totally different way of installation, so will PMDG products be supported on this platform? I guess this question applies to all developers. A2A already has posted concerns. This looks like it's really going to complicate matters for all 3rd party developers. Thomas Cain

    Hey everyone, So i apologize if this has been covered before and I failed to find the correct thread. I checked the PMDG knowledge base and still couldn't find anything to remedy this. I did a fresh install of FSX recently, and now I cannot use my PMDG 777, or any other PMDG product I have. When I try, it asks me for an activation code, and then tells me that I am missing the file to use the aircraft and then shuts down my flight sim. Now I looked on the website and found that you guys don't have email support anymore, so how do I go about doing this? I appreciate any help you folks can offer here.

    I would love to see PMDG release demos of their aircraft. Primarily they would be helpful for potential buyers to make sure that their system can handle the aircraft, but they would also be good if someone wants to see if THEY can handle such a complex aircraft. I'm sure that there is a reason why PMDG does not have demos, so what is it? Does it have something to do with piracy?

    I purchased the 800-900 set and noticed that my fuel tanks displays are digital readout only instead of the circular graphical readouts that I see in the manuels and other YouTube video tutorials. I actually prefer the circle readouts, and so can I change that? I looked at all the FMC Equipment options and nothing seems to get rid of the digital readouts

    Hi All, So...I already posted this in hardware forum but there isn't that much traffic. Moderators, feel free to boot the topic if it isn't appropriate. Since I come here 99% of the time when I log into AVSIM, i thought I would run this by those in the forum. This is what I posted in the original topic. I couldn't find any recent posts about wireless mics. I would be interested to hear from anyone that is using one to see if they like it. Are there any problems with interference? I'm thinking of getting one for a couple of reasons. I mostly fly on VATSIM. I've recently routed all voice (ATC) through my existing headset (not sure why I didn't do this …

    Hello all, As I slowly make my way back into the world of FS after a long break, I'm finally getting around to learning how to fly my old 737TNG on FS9. I also use FSX and wondered what the learning curve is going from the old 737 to the new. Is the operation similar or is it a pretty big step? Ken Pryor Apologies for the multiple identical posts. Not sure what happened there.

    Can someone tell me why it takes so long to get a re-download link from PMDG? I know it's only five dollars but if I'm paying for a service I really don't feel like waiting 6 to 8 hours for a response. I submitted for a re-download of the MD-11 at 10:00am Pacific time it is now 4:25pm Pacific time and my ticket status still says waiting for agent. Thanks, Bryan McKee

    My current system is an Intel E8500 Processor and a GTX650Ti Boost video card. No overclocking yet but that is planned. FS9 user. I currently have the B747-400 and it seems to run pretty well on my system. FPS limits set @ 25 and with some add on scenery and mid level traffic, I still seem to hold 23-24. I am thinking about getting the MD-11 and was wondering if anyone has both and can offer any comments about the system performance (FPS) with it versus the 747. Any input would be appreciated.

    Hello guys, I am finding myself in a very bizarre spot, on the one hand I have never thought I would be so interest in X-plane, on the other hand I cannot leave my fsx and here is why: I mainly fly vatsim for practicing real world procedures, IFR procedures, PMDG suites my needs very good, it has those fully working precisely systems, very good sounds etc etc... I must say I haven't flown a 737 yet, just smaller ones, but heard some things from people like X-plane really does make you feel as if you're landing in a crosswind, or in clouds, in turbulence etc. things like that are very important for me, now I know how it feels to land in a cross wind and I know how it f…

    Hi guys, I have an irritating "problem" I fly with the PMDG737NGX combined with FSCommander 9.4 on a second monitor. But when I move the mouse to the second monitor the sound of my PMDG737 stops. It has nothing to do with the FSX selectionbox "PAUSE ON EXIT" because thats off. On the site of 1Flightproducts I found a tool ± € 15,= called "Soundstream", to continue the sound. But thats only working with the iFly737. With all my other airplanes the sound doesn't stop when I move my mouse to my second monitor. Only the PMDG stops. Please help me because I love to fly with the PMDG737NGX Leo, Rotterdam, The Netherlands

As you know, we have been taking some time to being the process of moving our development process in the direction of supporting Lockheed Martin's Prepar3D (P3D) simulation platform, as well as Laminar Research's XPlane 10 (XPL). This process has been a slow one because it was necessary to very carefully map out a development process that would allow us to begin supporting multiple platforms without disrupting our existing product line for FSX. Many of you have been telling us that you are excited…
