PMDG 737NGX | 737NGXu

New video post from late Feb 2012.

I have found that using[JOBSCHEDULER]Affinitymask =14or any value in the FSX.CFG file does not work. Running FSX and looking in Task Manager, the CPU Affinity is always set to all cores.However, if you create a shortcut with the target at followsC:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /C START "" /AFFINITY E "D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\fsx.exeThis will correctly set the affinity to cores 1,2 & 3 leaving core 0 free for the system.This will also work for any program, just change the relevant path.Just thought that you would find this interesting!David Gunton

hii am a new user of pmdg so i have 2 questions1. i downloaded livery file *.ptp. what i have to do with it ?2. is there config app of the plane ? where i define all the properties of the plane like num of pass.thanksMenachem

I had to reinstall Windows7/64 and so FSX and all addons (a lot). Everything worked fine until I came to my NGX and JS41.Installing the base pack of the NGX, it did not asked me for an installation key, in the dll there are PMDG entries missing (like Options etc.) and I have only half of the cockpit. The JS41 installed fine, asked for the key, but the instruments are blank.I have checked the dll and it is correct.Any help is much appreciatedThanks Peter

Hi Captains,Waiting for building my cockpit I'm working with 2 monitors connected over 2 video cards.Each time I start a flight I have move them and re-position PFD/ND on the 2nd one and start. Is there a way to save the position of them ?Thanks in advanceFrancescp

This is my first time ever repainting an aircraft, and in the process taught myself how to barely use photoshop. I had a feeling I was in for some nasty little surprises when I finally loaded the textures into the sim. I am getting this effect as seen in the pics below, I am at my wits end , and I just cant figure it out, I have made sure that I cropped and resized , flipped vertically... etc. can any experienced repainter please here nudge me in the right direction? Your help will be greatly appreciated.Kind regards,Richard Shawthe good side:

I thought I made a previous post of this issue, but cannot find it now. If this duplicates things and it shows up later, my apologies. When my 737NGX is selected, the engines are always running. I am having trouble determining how to set up the PMDG 737NGX where when it is first selected, it will be in a cold and dark configuration without me doing anything else. A third party tutorial illustrates my problem.The third party tutorial states the following concering setup for a flight:"The <NGX CLDDRK should be highlighted after you pressed the LSK. Complete the process of loading this panel state by pressing the EXEC button on the CDU. The CDU will briefly display LOADIN…

heyy,as the title says, would you?

Found a nice inspection guide for the -800 at the following link.....http://www.captainpilot.com/files/B373%20NG/EXTERIOR%20INSPECTION2006.pdf

Hello everyone. When I activate the 737-600-700 after the first flight I have a crash simulator and then later on I did not have a stable work 737-600-700.Somebody know anything about this behavior 737-600-700?Win7 x64Thanks.Evgeny Olenchik.

Hey guys,Basically I had some issues with my PC and am unable to OC my CPU past stock, but really want to get back into FSX and the NGX 737.My specs areCore i5 760 2.8ghz4gb ddr3 ramgtx 560tiusing these addons..uk2000 airportsrex, gex, utxI am going to turn traffic off completely, including road traffic, airport traffic and aviation traffic so I have a completely static world. With mid settings, will I get good FPS?Thanks

In FSX settings the PMDG 737 NGX will run with DX10 preview enabled?

Hey,I bought 737NGX base pack a couple of days ago. I can't see the wingtips from the cockpit although I change the viewpoint. Are my wings ripped off or what? And I also can't see the nose section(or whatever it's called in English) from the cockpit window. The second issue is that some parts of the panel in front of the captain's seat are missing, this occurs only in 737-900NGX. I reinstalled and problem solved, but now the same again. What is more, I'd like to know what are the best sensitivity/ null zone settings for NGX, because I find the control column responding too slowly and it feels clumsy.PS. Please don't make a fuss over my spelling as I am not a native Engli…

The exterior (taxi/landing, strobes, beacon etc) lighting on the NGX is beautiful. Is it possible to merge it onto aircraft such as the Level D 767?

Okay I am at wits end, I have tried all night to Autoland my 737-800 on the runway at Gatwick. I selected the 26L ils approach Timba1D, i put in my flap refs in teh fmc approach page I input the ils freq 110.90 in both ILS dials on the radio stack i dial in 10879 into the hgs, I dial in 259 in bother course dials on the mcp I then monior the flight as it approach the turn to est localiser, I'm at 3000ft and descending to 2000ft to lock onto the ils as per the gatwick ils chart i adjust flaps etc as required I click on the app button on the mcp and then the course dials suddenly change to 079 which is the course for the 08r runway. as I reach 5.5 dme where the glidescop…

HI I am just inquiring about thte FAIL OPS AND FAIL PASS i notice a diffence there is another button next to the eng, sys buttons next to the autobrakes that appears when i click Fail PASS?Figured it out LOL

When i use the virtual cockpit and press shift 1 I get a similar screen to the 2D screen. However I cannot change the values on the panel eg the altitude or the heading value. The buttons show the usual hand icon when I try to change them but nothing happens on this screem. I notice that the values do end up being changed in the main virtual cockpit but not on the Shif 1 screen. All the other screens accessed with shift 1 appear to work normally.I have installed SP1 but I don't think I have upgraded to SP1b.Is this normal or am I missing something. I suppose an easy work around is to press F10 to get into the normal 2D screen.Can someone confirm whether or not my shi…

Wow, what an epic journey it has been to learn consistent landing techique with the NGX; at least for me personally. I studied the FCOM, read and re-read forum posts here on the subject, scoured the internets for real pilots' input, etc., and no matter what I would either float all the way to France or slam down hard on the runway during landings. Occasionally I would make an acceptable landing somewhere in the vicinity of the TDZ, but it was a random event at best.Use the TVV on the HUGS to target your landing spot on the runway, flare subtley to about 3 degrees NU and hold that attitude while smoothly reducing power, don't try to hold it off the runway, do this at 30 f…

Would it be possible for the CABIN ALTITUDE light be added to the NGX? It looks rather simple to add, and my understanding is that all new 737s are required to have it.PMDG response requested, please

Like many of us, I bought this fine bird (PMDG 737NGX), cranked her up and went flying. It was much easier than I expected as complex as it is and has been a lot of fun. I never flew anything bigger than a small twin in real life, so don't claim to know anything personally about a 737 or any other heavy. However, the flight dynamics seem to be outstanding to me. So now I decided to get down to business and find out what she is really all about and read the manuals carefully to take advantage of all the hard work PDMG has done. Although I am satisfied so far with the performance, I started with the first manual and setup instructions. Immediatedly ran into the following qu…

I,m not sure if this is a pmdg issue of an fsx issue . But sometimes when flying my keyboard assignments are messed up out of the blue , for example the / key does nolonger activate the airbrake but zoomes out and the ` key nolonger actives mt atc window. This couples with the imfamous occasional black screen issue makes it EXTREMELY frustrating. I thought it was the native keyboard setting in windows but changing it doesnt make a difference. Does anyone know what cuases it?Oscar Klein.

scoured the internet for a tutorial on how to add airline names to fsx, but not had any luck. tried fsx airlines edit but could not get that to work on windows 7!advice from fellow 737xers appreciated.thanksMel

Hey guys, I have a few questions about the NGX, mainly based on what your personal preference is :)So, what do you do during the cruise, do you keep a watchful eye over the NGX incase you should encounter turbulence, or do you wonder off and then return when you are about to reach T/D?Where abouts do you position yourself in the cockpit? Do you like to be in the captains side, or the First officers side? Personally just lately I have been flying in the f/o's side for a change?How do you position your camera angle in the cockpit? Do you like to be right close up to the cockpit window? Do you liek to be right back in the seat so you can see the flight yoke? Do you like to b…

After a long wait since last May when I had a medical issue that had me loose my medical, I lost my Beechjet flying job and have had to go months waiting the FAA mandatory 6 month time period before reapplying for my medical. Back before Christmas and after many stressful medical tests for the heart, I AM BACK woohoo! Got my health cleared 100% my 1st class medical, now just GOT a job yesterday flying another Beechjet 400A for a HUGE jet charter company in the northeast with a path towards existing Gulfstreams, one on site Legacy Jet and perhaps, yes perhaps a BBJ rumored in the near future! My BBJ dreams may come true someday .... haha...imagine that.... NGX to real BBJ…
