Button Control Version

Hello all.I'm not looking to create a controversy or anyone in any way or to affect anyone with my words, but I feel the need to say I'm very disappointed. Fs2crew for the NGX lacks many of the features I've seen in other versions such as more complete passenger announcements where you can tell them the name of your destination (a few pre recorded cities), FA briefings where you can tell the flight attendant to expect a long or short taxi, departure briefings where you can tell your copilot to expect a specific SID or STAR and brief him on it (a few pre recorded procedures), interactions where you can choose what to say (for example, the flight engineer would ask you if y…

Hi to all,I've noted a little imprecision: not only in ngx edition but I've already noted in ifly edition:during takeoff briefing the captain says about (I can remember exactly his words) "below 100 kts we'll reject the takeoff for any malfunctions..." but during takeoff roll the copilot call-out "80 kts", "V1" and "rotate" calls. According to me, to be coherent with what defined during the takeoff briefing he should call out 100 kts..V1..Vr or the takeoff briefing should extablish "below 80 kts we will..."CiaoAndrea

Hi there,I wonder if someone mught be able to point me in the right direction, thank you.I have installed the FS2Crew for 737NGX (Captains' Package) but I am having problems with the configuration post-install. I do not have FSX installed in the "common" location, rather on a different drive. I also have the PMDG installed in that location and all is working well. The FS2Crew installer detected my FSX installation path and I can see that it has been installed in the correct place- but when I try to start the configuration editor I get the message:"Sorry, the PMDG 737 NGX doesw not appear to be installed!""Before using this product you need to purchase it from the PMDG web…

Great utility once again.I noticed on Takeoff during the after takeoff checklist on the button control version the FO says:"Flaps Down" instead of "Flaps Up"I was also wondering why during pre flight flows the FO turns on the wheel well light. I always end up turning it off during taxi.Also would it be possible that when he blanks the lower DU to put the secondary engine indications on the Upper DU. Just Checking.Thanks

Byran, fantastic product really like it and well worth the wait, FSX is now complete!Just a couple of things that my FO is getting wrongSpeedbreaks are armed and he is saying speedbreak not armed when the green armed light is onAutobreak is turned to 3 (FO did it) but during checklist he states its at RTO...!He sets my landing Data and then says I need to check it and same with take off, were does he get the V1 V2 and rotates speeds from because he was telling me to rotate at 100 knots and I had loaded the FMCAlso says that Im not congfig for engine start- when I am.... that might be me thoughAnd lastest pulling onto gate, he trys to sets my chocks, sets them and them rem…

HiAs a previous buyer of PMDG 747 and Level-D 767 Fs2crew I know what to expect but have a few questions for the NGX version...1) I use GSX by FSDT for pushback, catering boarding etc and was wondering if I can still use the pushback function of GSX with no issues whilst using Fs2crew?2) Is it ok to use it with Radarcontact 4.3?Thanks

When running through prechecklist I have my engine cut-off and parking brakes set, but my PF asks me if I'm sure of both items. YES, I have the right settings so there must be a bug here somewhere.

Hi,Since I installed FS2Crew I have a minor but annoying issue:Everytime I switch to the VC, I have to turn the NAV1 and NAV2 Audio on and off (Those Buttons with the Arrows behind the MIC Selector).Otherwise I hear the morse sound of the selected Navaid all the time, thogh it is off when I am switching to the VC.

Hello there,First of all congratulations for your product.I am lost as I can not find what I am missing.After starting from Cold & Dark, opening FS2Crew and setting up the configuration panel to start from EXT/AC and clicking PF, ext power and air cond are not connected. I have read all the manuals and instructions but no way.Could you please explain to me what I am doing wrong?Thanks a lot.Iñigo Bayo

Hi Brian,Is there no longer an option for the copilot to take off as in previous versions ?Best Regards,Richard Portier

I installed the fs2crew software, uac off, i choose button control, started with the default pmdg 737-800but i can left click on every spot, nothing happens.When i installed fs2crew for level-d 767 before the first flight i was asked to trust the fs2crew gauge,not with fs2crew for pmdg737 ngx.If i select button control for the second time i see a cross but the popup windows says its enabled,selecting again there is a "v" but the popup window says its disabled!!I don't see any reference to the fs2crew gauge in the panel.cfg, should it not?

Hello Brian,I have many Fs2Crew products (747, MD11, B767, JS41...)I'm a bit surprised of the following changes :1- It seems that the main panel window is not resizable. Sorry but I have two CRT 4/3 screens (do not laugh in the audience, thanks ;-)), it's a deliberate choice and btw if I had known I think I will have thought about before purchasing.2- Why not have kept the same assigment for the second button as the JS41 ?3- A little bit less important but ; would be it possible to have a manual in PDF format ? I have not always able to be connected (second computer).Please, do you think you could do something about these remarks ?Thank you in advance,Best Regards,Richard…

Hi Bryan,just a quick note to say thanks for another amazing program. Just completed my first flight from PANC to PADU and the program behaved flawlessly( not sure I can say the same about my flying though lol).CheersSteve

Hi Bryan,I have a problem you might be able to solve or might be good for your update list.I have a PCI sound card in my PC and also onboard sound. I have set Windows default sound as the onboard as FSX has an option to decide which sound card to use and my addon ATC does not and just uses the default settings. This set up enables me to have the sounds of my aircraft through speakers and my ATC through headphones. The problem now arises with FS2Crew as this uses the default sound card also and as such all sounds including cabin crew announcments come through my headphones. I have tried setting FS2Crew headphone setting to my PCI card but and selecting HS on the panel but …

Sorry Brian but I need your help.I'm getting an FSX crash to desktop after I have enabled FS2Crew through the Configuration Manager and loading the NGX.My error is PANEL.DLLIf I disable FS2Crew via the Configuration Manager I am able to fly the NGX again.thxIM2

While all the chatter for the FS2Crew NGX is in the 'Voice' forum, do not forget that the package will also include a "Button Control" version for those who are not Voice capable or who simply prefer not to "talk" to their computers.Release date is this Friday.

Hey guys,Just letting you know, and inviting you along on the final beta test flight and ushering in "Your Flightcrews Arrival" THIS WILL BE THE FINAL BETA TEST FLIGHT BEFORE RELEASE !! The flight will be on Vatsim, I haven't decided what city pair I'll use yet but I'll post here to let you know. This version of FS2Crew is the most advanced ever,. The amount of procedures modeled, voice commands available, the depth and technicality of flying the 737NG and the accuracy to which they were modeled is truly an amazing accomplishment.I'll be flying a 737-800 and I'll also have "FS2CREW PMDG NGX BETA TEST" in the comments, may even do a few go-arounds to tease you a little :(.…
