Should you start Prepar3d v3 with administrator rights on or off. Peter Smeal

Therefore do I need to buy the product again? Thanks.

Just a heads up for those that use NVIDIA Inspector the new NVIDIA driver 364.51 released last week, has changed "FSX" to Flight Sim 10 by drop down name within Inspector. You also need to search "Microsoft" to filter rather than just typing "MS" Searching "MS" will find no Microsoft products. Just FYI. It caught me out. To be fair I have heard the latest driver is a little unstable in other applications anyway. Andy

Hey guys, so i have both the NGX and 777 but when i open PMDG operations center it picks up as if its installed in FSX. I have FSXSE, but it bugs me that the OC is not picking this up. The planes work fine when i start FSXSE. Do you guys have any suggestion on how to fix this? Thanks!

I have changed to P3D. I have given up on the OOMs and the poor scenery that is left when I try to fly. I notice that there are no P3D installers options in the setup on the three planes in the latest installers. And I notice that the versions are sold separately... But if I am changing to P3D then....? What to do? I have tried to find some info... Cant find anything. all the best Jens

Hello. Not being used to post in forums, I'm not all certain on what procedures to follow. I'll do my best to comply anyway. I can't get Operations Center to function with my 737NGX & 777LRF. (Prepar3d 2.5 using Windows 10) Done a reinstallation of P3D after having to format and fully reinstall Windows. P3D and Windows are located on separate harddrives. Both products installed without issues - including the Operations Center. When selecting the two purchased & registered Products mentioned above - the Operations Center won't let me do anything other than purchase the selected Product. Having tried to find a solution by browsing forums and googl…

Went onto your website to buy the PMDG 737 800/900 package. Put it in the cart and selected paypal and filled out the form to buy. Cart says I have an account (somehow, never bought anything PMDG before). Went to forgot password. Says I bought a product but didn't register (again, nope, not true). Clicked the forgot order code form, entered my e-mail there and it says I never bought a product. In summary, your website says I am both a customer and not a customer...somehow... Can you guys help me here since I can't even use your website customer support since you need to be able to log in to even use that? Nicholas Sollazzo

Hi, I didn't understand why switch and buttons control are not active (777 lr)(little hand mouse control icon no appears) to do test by exemple; I have ASN well configurate. And plane updates; Is it a solution? Thanks François ICHARD

Hello all: While doing some research on PMDG's DC6 for a personal project (just waiting becomes boring, particularly as I have FSX), I found the following link, which I found very interesting and I would like to share: http://www.dc-6.co.za/45564.htm I searched the forums and could not find this link, so I hope it is not repeated. If it is, my apologies and enjoy again! Roberto

Can someone please direct me in the PMDG site to where I can find and download the Operation Center? Thank you Dirk

Have just bought the T7 and installed it with no problems, but since i have installed the T7 P3D has now taken over 10 minutes to load and i am still waiting anyone got any ideas. Regards Tim Clarke

I cannot locate the PMDG Technical Support page for a ticket submission Thx

When the 747v2 is released, will it be available for P3D right away or will it only be available for FSX first. I would like to install P3D but I don't want to wait any longer for the 747. Thanks! Doug Morlan

*Edit: just saw the thread 'It's started", discussing the same thing. Sorry for the double post. Hello, I was looking at the PMDG store and I found these two products. I'm not sure if it was intended because the "II" version of the 747 isn't released yet. Also the price looks like it's for a real 747 ;-) Anyway, here's a picture. Tomas Hoste

Once again I have to post in this forum due to the problem of a black screen when slecting any of the above. Removed PMDG 737 & 777 from P3D v3.1 then uninstalled P3D. After rebooting etc, installed P3D v3.2 followed by all versions of simconnect from the redist folder then the above aircraft. All default aircraft work fine but when accessing the PMDG results in a black screen. Same thing happened when I went from v3 to v3.1 then the issue was resolved by installing the Simconnect versions which I had failed to do, this time though the problem remains and like before no window to enter the activation codes ever appeared when first accessing the aircraft. DLL.xml …

Just installed the P3D 3.2 client (after uninstalling the 3.1 client). The very frustrating viewpoint shift bug found in all previous FSX/P3D versions is now FIXED once and for all! I just tested this at OMDB in the -300ER. As most of you know, the longer the aircraft and the closer to the equator, the worse the problem was. Here is a small video I just uploaded to show the results: No more viewpoint shift whatsoever! Regarding V3.2 compatability so far: PMDG -200LR/F and -300ER work flawlessly, as does FSRealtime, EZDok and FSUIPC. ASN will require a small AS Connect update to function. I am sure Rob and the development team are just as happy, consi…

I first learnt how to use an FMC with PMDG's 737 for FS2002 (some years have passed). In fact I still have the original boxed 737-600/700 and its expansion 737-800/900, which I will continue to treasure on my shelf for my whole life probably. Then it was the 747 Queen of the Skies, which I could still buy a boxed edition from in a department store in Madrid, Spain. Today nobody cares about boxed software obviously and therefore the days where you went to the store and saw a huge shelf full of MFS9 add-ons are over. I might be the kind of guy who gets very attached to his old photos, books, CDs and stuff in general and keeps accumulating things over the years, maybe with a…

At the request of Kyle, I am starting a new topic on this (previous request was in wrong topic). I didn't put it in either the 777 or 737 forums, as it now has affected both the 737 and 777 products. This is the second time this has happened after reinstalling P3Dv3.1 and PMDG. The issues is this......after one flight (which goes smoothly no issues), the very next flight I am unable to click on anything in the cockpit. Absolutely nothing works. This is not right after the flight ended as I do 18+ hr flights, but the next day after turning my comp back on. Before it started with P3D and went to my FSX install with the issue. Now it's just with PMDG and P3D. My old system d…

Captains, We have just made available new installers for all four of our products that are compatible with Lockheed Martin's Prepar3D product line. These new installers recognize both v2.x and v3.x of P3D. There are some important installation considerations here that you should take a moment to read in order to avoid getting confused. We tried to make things simple, but I would also like for you to understand exactly what we did so that you are not accidentally exposed to frustration! WHAT THIS UPDATE DOES: This update does not change the 737 or 777 products in any way. All this update does is provide you with an installation mechanism that is capable of …

Hi Guys. I've just installed the new P3D 3.2 Client and I'm having problems loading my 777 into add on airports within in the Sim. Loading the 777 into default P3D airports seems to be working ok and default P3D aircraft load ok into add on airports with no problem, just seems the 777 to add on scenery is a problem. When I select the 777 from the Scenario screen and then select for example UK2000 EGKK the blue loading box will come up with no loading % bar and will crash the sim within a few seconds. This is the same for a few sceneries I have tried. FSDT KLAS, FlyTampa Corfu, Taxi To Gate KMCO. I have also tried with reinstalling the 3 SimConnect files but didn…

Hello Apologies if the answer to this is hugely obvious, I've been out of the loop for a long time. I understand that the PMDG 747 addon was recently discontinued due to the future release of a new, reworked version of the software. With the previous line up, there was an option to purchase a 747-8 external model but if I recall correctly it was simply an aesthetic change and the underlying systems, cockpit, sounds, physics etc were all identical to the 744. With the upcoming "747 v2", will the 747-8 be modelled uniquely to the same level of realism as the 744 or will it just be another aesthetic model change again? Thanks Odai.

Hi I am running the 747 Queen of the skies in FSX I would like to run the pre start check list. I have set the aircraft up at a parking ramp at a certain location. I have gone to the aircraft menu at the top of the screen Then I select knee board then select checklist Now I have a list if items to select ie. first officers flight deck pre flight To the right of that is a little oblong circle with a blue horizontal bar through it. How do I open this document, nothing seems to work.? Is this the correct check list for this aircraft? how do you open the pmdg 747 checklist with in the cockpit environment. I have read the actual document many times from the fil…
