PMDG General Forum

Hi guys, Been flying the 777 and still no failures or anything.. I have it on X4 and I think my let down may be the fact i fly different liveries. Would it be more realistic to fly with random failures on? IRL I work for an airline with a lot of old aircraft and we have tech issues everyday (as most airlines) I am wanting to see them a little more often. Alex

Dear PMDG team, Why my B77x download URL expired before reaching the 365 days.. any idea? Thanks Santiago

I love the new design of the website! Nice, fresh, modern design. Also the new house colors for the 777 are very nice!

Dear all, I have had the MD11 installed for a while now, and with the last commercial flight soon, I thought I would take it for a spin. I downloaded and installed the KLM livery off of the PMDG website. Started fsx, only to realize EVERY time I click fly now fsx crashes. I restarted my pc, thinking it was a usual hiccup. Next time I start fsx, I notice a message while loading saying "(Textures) Directory does not exist". Confused, I check my main FSX folder to see if my texture folder was somehow renamed. THEN I REALIZED THERE WAS NO TEXTURES FOLDER. I am extremely furious. Whatever happened, it is obviously an issue of PMDG. I heard if their software detects a bla…

After each navdata update, I use to be able to edit the navdata, in order to use the IGS13 at Kai Tak. Now it seems all PMDG FMC's don't see RW13 any more. Did something change?

I had to re-install my FSX program on a new computer. My other was old and fried. I went to download my 737 from the site. My link has expired. I know this is unorthodox, but can I have access to my product? REMOVED - DO NOT POST PERSONAL ORDER INFORMATION PUBLICALLY Above is the details of my order. Thank you. Dave Steele [email protected]

Whenever I load up in the 777 747 or 737 at an airport in the U.S. the PMDG systems do not work hence the FMC throttle and other systems do not work however if I load up at an airport outside of the U.S. ie the UK they work a dream. I don't know if this a problem with PMDG or FSX?

Captains, This update will give you a broad swath of information on a couple of different topics. This update will be necessarily brief- but it will cover a range of topics and give you as much information as we are able to give you at this time! PMDG 777-200LR/F - SP1 Wrap-up: As previously mentioned, we have been letting the beta team "burn in" the current version of the SP1. Thus far it has gone very well- and they are finding a few little tiny detail items that we are able to resolve pretty quickly. We are through with major adjustments, and just tying down some small details and prepping the update for release. Release scheduling is underway but we ha…

Yeah... I just wanted to be the first to post this after the SP1C release. Cuz I NEVER get to be "That Guy." :ph34r: (Yes.. shortly... LOL!)

Recently, 4 days ago, I re-ordered a JS41 following a back-up disk failure. Payment went through as normal, an acknowledgement e-mail came through with the confirmation link which gave an error. Not a problem I thought, get in touch via the website. After sending 3 e-mails I have not received any response at all. Does anyone know if there is a problem here with PMDG, because at the moment I am out of pocket and lacking a JS41.

I am wondering why PMDG has not included this in their airplanes? Has it been thought of? Like the Majestic uses. Windshield, wing, engine, icing. This is what makes the Q400 such a great realistic airplane to fly. Maybe the B747 v2 will have it.. Best, JFriz

After installing SP1C for the PMDG 777, shortly after takeoff (flying the 777) FSX shuts down with a message saying that a program quit working and must shut down. It has happened twice now. Has anyone else had an issue with this? No problems before the SP1 install. regards Doug Morlan

Hello everyone. Today I want to share my (curious) experience with FSX with you.

Whenever I start the engines on the PMDG 777, both engines start normaly. But when i try to advance the throttle setting, only one engine produces the selected amount of power. The physical throttles both appear to be moving. Would appreciate help! ^_^

I so wish that movie / TV producers would by FSX and PMDG products before they make films and TV shows. SPOILER ALERT I have just watched the latest episode of Criminal Minds and in the first scene it shows the external shot of a Boeing 747, then the internal shot of a smaller plane. Then later on it shows a plan of a three engine aircraft. Later on another aircraft, again a 747 this time with a small cockpit, then the pilot changes com frequency with the CDU which I am right, is only available on the Airbus, not the 747. The plot goes that a plane crashes, they investigate and find that the slats are lowered mid air then is brought down by a remote contro…

Hello, I have a new problema, whem i fly with my 777 all your monitor are displaying por quality, especially with de texto. The most curious is that the FMC's appears ok, good quality There is a big difference between the quality on the texto in the FMC's to de other monitors! Anyone know what is my problema?

Retired and spent some time flying different aircraft in FSX. It was not long needed a challenge started looking for some quality aircraft to fly and found PMDG. After watching a number of videos and reading these forums fell in love with the 777-300ER what a beautiful aircraft. Sure itching to purchase a 777 it is so tempting. My experience with complicated aircraft is pretty limited closest complicated aircraft flown are the A2A. That is a different type of flying. Came to the conclusion before purchasing the 777-300ER better get familiar with a PMDG airplane and choose to purchase the Jetstream 41 and sound pack for the crew. Have not touched the down load think h…

I've come across a problem with both my 737NGX and 747-X programs that I can't fix. the problem with both add-ons comes when I either minimize or reduce the size of the display when using them in FSX. After minimizing or changing the screen size and I go back to full screen one of several things happens: the panels disappear, the diplay goes blank, the cockpit displays as if the graphics are just getting loaded, or the scenery repeats (such as cars duplicate over and over). I also found out that my other aircraft add-ons don't have this problem. I can change the window size or minimize when using them and they work fine. I've tried re-loading the PMDG software; I've run …

Hello, I buy today by PMDG-Shop of B777-300ER. But i touch links of download..! Error..!! What is wrong??? Me..? regard sebastian

Hi Where can I find the 777 SP1c changelog file? Would like to see what are changed. I know it is in OPC but I am on an old WinXP so when I press the changelog button to read it OPC crashes. No big deal for me, that button is the only one that does not work. All other buttons, settings, liveries and so works as they should. Have looked through <flightsimx>/PMDG and can not find any. It is enough if someone just adds the changelog as an post. Just reading it ones or twice is OK for me. Or have I missed some post somewhere with it? TIA /Per W

...if you're interested in the 777 SP1c update. Current version is now 1.10.6155 Thanks, PMDG...much appreciated.

Captains- We are currently doing a bit of integration testing with the 777-200/300 SP1c update that is pending. We anticipate that this will take 2-5 more days depending on how it goes. (We have a couple of minor items with it that we are working to resolve...) This update will not be as big as SP1, but it is bigger than SP1b- as it addresses some further refinements to the 777 that we think you all will appreciate. I'll list them out later... I am hoping that we can push the update in time for this weekend, but at the moment my schedule doesn't seem to be cooperating with that plan- so I just wanted to let you know we are close...
