PMDG 737NGX | 737NGXu

  1. Good morning, The VC cockpit in the PMDG 737NGX, running under P3D v 4.2 is rather blurry. In the PFD, and the ND, the figures for (for instance) Altitude, Speed, and the TC and TD are very hard to read. Could that be improved? (I must say, that in FSX, that was far more better). The 2D cockpit looks very good. Thanks for any help. Henk

  2. Hello to all When I start up P3D v4.2 and load the PMDG 737-800NGX for P3Dv4.2 (panel state cold and dark), the following strange things happen: 1) Parking brakes are automatically switched on, and I can't switch them off. 2) As soon as I switch the battery switch on (overhead panel), I hear a warning sound. 3) When I program the FMC, and try to fill in a previously made flightplan (i.e. from EHAM to LSZH) as a CORoute, I get the message: invalid entry. When I do the same in FSX, it works fine. Can anyone help me? Henk

  4. Hi, I have done some reading in this forum on using FSUIPC with PMDG , and am interested in purchasing P3D version 4.3. and using PMDG aircraft. I have Saitek yoke, dual throttles, and rudders. P3D does not support dual throttles natively, as stated in their forum. Hence FSUIPC or some other option must be used to program dual throttles. I would prefer to use FSUIPC. Given statements by PMDG recommending against using FSUIPC, I am wondering if folks have been successful anyway with a setup just like mine in terms of using FSUIPC to program the combination of input devices I have, including all the buttons, and axes, [throttle axes in particular], Looking at the for…

    I currently have the PMDG 737NGX basic and the expansion loaded on my current desktop. I am getting a new desktop computer. Can I load my PMDG 737NGX on my new desktop? If so, do I need to uninstall from my old desktop prior to loading on the new desktop? The basic 800/900 I have on disk. Thanks for the help.

    I want to buy the 737NGX soon and could have sworn Active Sky 2016 was able to be used for the weather radar. But now I read at the website Active Sky Next is required. Will Active Sky 2016 work for the weather radar? I have Active Sky cloud art. If I have to buy next will Active Sky cloud art still work?

    I started doing a project for my own personal use but was wondering if anyone would be interested (with PMDG's permission of course) in this project. It would include a much cleaner look that would mean redoing the base textures to get rid of all the peanut dust lol and taking the scuff off the switch's. Thanks http://Capture by Plain and Simple Repaints, on Flickr

    Hi, I installed a fresh new installation of PMDG NGX on my new 6-core PC. Fresh FSX installation works fine, all great. I have a legal PMDG license. I bought the firmware and downloaded it from PMDG website. However the VC looks very wrong, most of the cockpit is black, and not only the LCD screens, the back switches panel is literally transparent, and top panel is black and transparent, on all display FSX settings. I have literally tried all settings, uninstalled and installed FSX and PMDG 3 times. DX11 installed It's fustrating me. How do I attach files or images from PC, Please help.

  12. Hello guys, been wanting to ask something regarding "hickups" long time ago since I did not find any useful information by searching. For start: I did the switch from FSX:SE to P3D with the release of P3Dv4 point at which I also purchased the NGX for P3D! My issue: The NGX is the only ACFT I'm experiencing "hickups" (sudden and short massive FPS drops). When it happens some of the displays dim themselves (all MCP displays: HDG, ALT, CRS... and the clock). These hickups happen for example when I first call up the ATC window, or when resizing and relocating the ATC window. They also happen from time to time inflight (can't tell if in random or regullar timefr…

    Need help again. I am using FSX;Accel. Win 8.1 PMDG737NGX. I was able to stop the Mouse from controlling the Yoke in the fsx\settings tab\ control tab\ and unchecking the box. This worked for a few flights, but now I cannot get the fsx program to remember my setting. It keeps holding the Mouse as the yoke controller, which then gives me no control over the trim wheel when I am setting it from the FMS. Is there a way to add a line to the FSX.CFG to stop the mouse from contolling the Sim? I tried everything I can think of to work around this, but FSX is not cooperating. Thanks for anyones advice.
