PMDG General Forum

Captains, We pushed a minor update for Prepar3D users of the PMDG 777-200LR/F earlier this evening. The update capitalizes on some performance enhancements we worked out for both prepar3D platforms, and it adds the rolling friction model we introduced with the 747-400 earlier this year. We had a half dozen other minor items in this update that we fixed just because we had our hands on stuff, and we also corrected a bug that caused the brakes to overheat for some users in unexpected conditions... You can obtain this update via the Operations Center. We are working to publish a rollup-update for FSX/FSX-SE users. That should drop before the weekend, we…

do I need t purchase the 777 again for Prepared v4

Hi all, I can imagine it's been quite difficult fitting ngx, 777 and 747 into a 32bit platform. What are some things you've wanted to to include in the past, but were simply not able to previously and what general things can we expect to see going forward in V4? Alex

Hello I do have problem. I have p3d v4 777 and 747. I open the operation center in administration mode. when I click to update any of the planes in the notification section of the operation centre the black bar down the bottom goes through really quickly and nothing happens. Does not update. Wondering if anybody knows the problem. I have uninstalled the operations centre and reinstalled it. Deleted the temp folder and the content in the roaming files.

I realized that I didn't copy all manuals for 777 for my commute reading from my PC, and tried in vain to find a downloadable copy of them. Are they available somewhere for registered users? I'm specifically looking for a T7 QRH.

Hi guys, Just a few shots of my latest livery, just uploaded to avsim (0700z) so expect release tomorrow hopefully! The pics can do the talking.. https://scontent-syd2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/19488807_831242183691347_3119242072762203266_o.jpg?oh=41719af56d125f986433bca467e7dd31&oe=59C62082 https://scontent-syd2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t31.0-8/19575085_831241987024700_8967179845718948238_o.jpg?oh=56cb18e2a563576fdb8e5e4138aac417&oe=59DDA1DA

Having bought a new computer primarily for P3Dv4 I'm waiting for the 737NGX to become P3Dv4 compatible before I load any aircraft into V4. My second favourite aircraft is the JS41, as its not yet P3D compatible (hint, hint) I have had to install FSX purely to fly the JS41. Might be answering my own question here but I have reinstalled the JS41 from a 'saved' Install file rather than re-downloading from my PMDG account. Although its installed successfully it hasn't installed the PMDG Operations Centre - how do I get this utility ?

I have one question If we exceed with activation and go over the limit,can we ask pmdg to update the number of activation. Not saying I am over the limit but i have changed five pcs since I found that I have to reactivate products Thanks as allways for replies

Ihave bought PMDG 737 NGX to day i have this message "ACTIVATE YOUR PRODUCT AFTER ENTER MA ACTIVATION CODE I HAVE THIS MESSAGE3 Invalid activation (incident #8984-7311535)

Hey PMDG Tram, ifni install this hotfix that came out today, will I break the 777 and 744?

Hi I have recently switched from FSX SE to P3D V 4 and repurchased the 777. I am unable to access the documents in the Operations Centre. Where are the documents located in the Sim so I can try and access these by bypassing the Ops Centre? Thanks

I have saitek pro yoke and trotthle . It s work good with PMDG738 . But with PMDG 777-300 yoke and throttle not work, only speed break and parking break work. Help me pls

Hi all, Had to restart my PC and saved a 747 QOTS scenerio (through : and save) and it doesn't work. When I reload the simulator I have black screens and the yoke at full down and left.

I installed the Queen, 737, and the 777. When I go to take off they will roll down the runway to about forty knots, that's it. The screen shows full power and the brake is off. The other planes in the hanger are not having this problem. Dan Longano

Hi All, I know this is an old question---but I have been ill for a long time and am better now and ready to sim full time again---I have forgotten all the stuff i used to know and have a questin---I am looking for a program to make and the install into the FMC/CDU a flight plan for the PMDG 777 for Prepar v4---can anybody point me in the right direction? Thanks for any help Cheers Dorn

Just a quick Q.. I purchased RAAS for P3Dv4 yesterday and its not working with PMDG 777 or 747 in P3Dv4. Is this something we are still waiting on PMDG to implement? Thanks

Captains, This thread will keep you up-to-date on our progress and expectations toward the release of each of our Prepar3D v4 compatibility updates. I am going to keep this thread locked, and I will be updating it as information changes. You can check back with this thread to know what the most current information and expectations are. Let me translate that again to make sure it is clear: As we progress through releasing each of our Prepar3D v4 updates, we will be keeping you up-to-date on progress in this thread. The information will change and will be updated new information and expectations become available. Please note that testing for market suita…

Kyle or Tabs, Any chance of getting the .jpg files fixed on the first page of the Nvidia Configuration Guide? Or is it my computer? blaustern

Hi Al, Does anyone have an issue where the GSX menu does not show when using the T7. The 747 is fine. Thanks Joe

A few moments ago, we published our first x64 update to the PMDG 777-200LR/F, the first of a couple updates coming to the 777 product line. This updates the 777 within our Prepar3D product line so that you can use it in either Prepar3D v3 or Prepar3D v4. THESE NOTES ARE IMPORTANT - PLEASE READ THEM: This is a complete product and installer rebuild, thus requiring that you download the entire (nearly) 900MB installer anew from your PMDG eCommerce account. I will include the installation instructions a bit lower down for those who need them. As of this version, we are still awaiting a x64 compatible RAAS module from Bryan York at JetExpress/FS2Crew. He…

I admit that selfishly I made the move to P3D v4 before most add ons being brought current to the new platform is my own fault but question on schedule. I understand the 300 is waiting on a hot fix from LM with something pertaining to the nose wheel camera. That's fine, I get that. Is there a reason why that's delaying the update to the NGX? I have exasturbated my trans-continental flying for a little while. Please don't strike me as impatient, only anxious and eager. And not totally understanding of software development. We are on the forefront of exciting times in flight simulation. Cheers

I had recently bought PMDG 747-400 Queen of the Skies II for P3D v3.4 but now I have installed P3D v4 and would like to reinstall it for v4. I don't want to uninstall P3D v3.4 because so much is still not compatible with v4, and I still need P3D v3.4 for my other scenery and aircraft I'm using. When I uninstalled PMDG 747-400 QOTS II and reinstalled it keeps on automatically placing it in my P3D v3.4 and doesn't give me the option of selecting P3D v4. Thanks.. James Stratmann

Captains, As promised in my update from 18JAN17, I wanted to swing through tonight and give you some additional information on the upcoming release of the PMDG 747-400 Queen of the Skies II. Lets go through WHAT we are giving you: The following aircraft will be included in the initial release: 747-400 -- 3 engine types 747-400BCF -- 3 engine types 747-400D -- 1 engine type 747-400M -- 2 engine types 747-400F -- 3 engine types 747-400ER -- 1 engine type 747-400ERF -- 2 engine types Each aircraft/engine combination has it's own unique, accurate performance data, engine model and flight characteristics where that applies. …

In the scheme of things, this is terribly minor, but thought I'd report it as a Google search returned nothing on this for me. PMDG Operations Center Updater in the start menu is listed as PMDG Ooerations Center Updater.
