PMDG General Forum

Just a simple question for you. What is better REX (with future Essentials) or Active Sky 2012? Thinking of purchasing one soon.ThnxIvan Majetic

Has anyone here tried FXAA Post Process Injection Tool? I have been testing it this weekend and managed to archive (in my opinion) a very nice viewing experience! However the default settings give a horrendous over exposed 1920s style screen which needs some adjustment through the provided GUI! I discovered it via the ORBX forum…http://www.assembla.com/spaces/fxaa-pp-inject/documents#I’m unable to gather a lot of info about this which appears to be more stable than the EMB mod.It works similar to the EMB mod (place ‘a d3d9.dll’ mod within the FSX root directory) plus some additional shaders...Apparently no performance loss at all and some claim it improves it, though I…

From my beloved B747-400X, if I subtract the functions provided by PMDG, the basic FSX aircraft and the functions provided by SimConnect, what functions remain to call FSX?

Anyone know of a fix for the jitteriness/shakiness that happens (most noticeable at the wingtips) when FSX Jet aircraft are not at full idle F1? PMDG support stated it may have something to do with the way FSX models jet/turboprop aircraft or contact points etc. Its not game breaking by a long shot nor is It much of an issue, until you notice it, but once you notice it, it looks kinda bad and is like one of those pesky annoyances (EX. a car rattle) that get amplified and never go away once you're aware of it. lol.ThanksTom Norton

I am hearing 'rumours' that the PMDG 777 will not offer a 2D cockpit / panels.Can anyone confrim / deny this is how it is going to be?Thanks.Rob Hall.

This has to do with all the AI aircraft strobes flashing in unison...What are people using for this in FSX, if anything? There was an asynchonous_strobes file for FS9 that worked great, but in searching the forum for an FSX version, I found a few topics started but they don't seem to end with a solution. I wasn't successful searching the file library either. It's nice to have FSX working well enough that it's just some relatively minor annoyances now :)I would imagine this has been figured out long ago and I'm just not searching with the right terms. Any links or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hello i just have a little question. it got nothing todo with a release date or something my questions is the follow one:Will PMDG keep supporting all the configuration of PMDG/Aircraft´s can be done through the FMC?I really like how its done and that you can change all options through the FMC during flight, taxi whatever.Will we see something like that still on the Secret Project #1 and the 777?

Hey, I downloaded the 747-400X a few days ago. I went to download the liveries and there is not 747-400X page. Where to I get that.

Hello,I just flew a appr using a chart and this went ok. In this case I needed a vor from the airport and first fly over it. Then make a 180 turn and fly into the ils beam.After landing I thought I look up the star for the same rnw (using flight sim commander) and expacted to see the same line draw, but instead it come from any direction (n, s, e, w) and stoped infront of the ils beam.Can anybody explain if there is a relation between star and chart appr's, or are they used saparately?Thanks,Maikel Rozemeijerpe1123

KORD has been added to my SIDSTAR collection of KATL, KBOS and KBWI. Add these to your sidstar folder after updating with Navigraph procedures, and keep for next cycle because I am following the FAA 56-day cycle (includes 28-day cycles 1202-1203)Since O'Hare only has one vectors-only departure, I've added departure procedures that mimic closely the vectored departures to 13 departure gates (fixes) including BAE, DUFEE, EBAKE, PETTY, etc. If you are using something like VATSIM you don't need this feature so the basic ORD5 departure is included.Comments/suggestions or questions are always welcome. This collection is available in the AVSIM library with detailed readme in the…

i love listening to liveatc.net, especially on my VATSIM flights when I'm stuck on unicomi started paying attention to what pilots say when contacting ATC as a way of brushing up on my own contact to ATC on VATSIMtonight, i listened to all of the live feeds that were up from the KSFO area. the results were interesting.all that is written below is what i heard and copied onto notepad from my headset. i only used 'Delta2632' as a default callsign to simplify, the actual transmissions were from all types of aircraft and airlinesCLEARANCE[full readback] - thought it's interesting that they do full readbacks in the realworld, but on VATSIM i hear it is frowned on since it clog…

That I am reading too much into RSR heading: Secret Project #1. Now the mere fact that #1 is listed (after Secret Project) could it be that there are more potential secret projects in the mix over a period of time?Just my thoughts...

When is the 777 expected to release?

Hello again gents,I need some help with this AIRAC business. I'm not clear on everything contained in an AIRAC cycle. Consequently I'm not sure how important it is to update the cycle from the originals that come with the PMDG products. Should I get the latest cycle from Navigraph? Apparently Dan Downs has developed some related helpful data provided through AVSIM...would it provide the same information as the latest AIRAC cycle from Navigraph? Also Planepath provides a download that updates the FSX database. Do I need that? Sorry guys but obviously I'm totally lost in all this info. I'm trying to learn but I need some help to get started in the right direction.A…

Hi guys,I have been a fan of AES for a long time now, especcially after the newest update adds some nice textures.I was wandering, is GEX the replacement of AES? If that is the case I will install it and get it today.What limitations does GEX have, are you happy with it?Alex
