Im pretty sure this is something to do with my setup and not FSX - but; I only get it in the 737NGX. After engines have started, I can only apply thurst to Engine #1 on my Logitech 3D Extreme Joystick. Engine #2 just stays at idle. But, I also noticed that even when pressing F4 (keyboard shortcut for FULL thurst), it stays at idle. Im at NZWN holding short to takeoff, but I cant until this is fixed! :(

Hey, guys. The NGX is incredible, and I mean INCREDIBLE; however, I do miss flying with FS2Crew. I was wondering if there was any news on the release of an SDK in the not-too-distant future. -Will Stroud

I appreciate there is already a thread about Multiplayer issues, but that thread is very non-specific, while I hope this one will be more directed. The new 737 DOES BADLY Flood MP with Unnecessary MULTIPLAYER Key events. Example #1 Starting at gate with engines started.Hit "/" once "Toggle spoilers" -- and this starts a Flood of SET_SPOILER Key events to set spoilers to 100%, even though they are now already there. CLASSIC Key Event Flooding -- Not checking variable before sending key event to Change Variable. ------------------------- I am going to stop here, till I get PMDG developer's attention, and ideally open a private dialogue with them.(No point is wasti…

Thanks PMDG this NGX is simply miles better than I though possible.I thought it would never be as good as I imagined or have seen. But it was way better. So thank you very much. Now to my small issue. I have a problem with thrust reverse.I have a ch yoke with 1 axis for the throttle 1 for the reverser and 1 for the spoilers. When I am on the ground I can advance the throttle to any setting bring it back to idle and then open the reversers no problem at all.In other words If I try and diagnose the issue on the ground before taking off I cannot find any issues to diagnose. After landing with either an a/p - a/t approach or full manual I need to press f1 key before being abl…

PMDG, I noticed on your website where you offer the printed NG manuals that in the "Chief Pilots Set" is included a hole-punched, laminated checklist ($8 value) for free as part of the set. My question: is it possible to purchase just the laminated checklist?? I can't really afford (or justify to the Mrs.) several hundred dollars worth of printed manuals when my only aim is to get the laminated checklist. Besides, I run an old beat up laptop on bare bones Linux to flip through the PDF manuals if I need to reference something but do like having an actual laminated checklist in hand. I do understand that I could probably find/create something adequate and go to Kinkos or wh…

Hi EveryoneI do love the NGX however I am getting a problem that I am not sure what is causing it. I did a flight last night from YSSY to YBBN and again this morning. TO, Climb and cruise all went fine but in the descent all of a sudden the sim gets very stuttery with frames alternating quickly between say 20fps and 2fps making it totally unflyable and then it crashes totally. I only turned frames on to see what was happening and started before I put it on.Is this the same thing that some people are reporting about memory type errors? Is this likely to be some sort of memory error?Many thanks for any help that can be given.CheersBarraPS system has been defragged recen…

Was curious, after entering the performance data I noticed the ISA Dev line is filled in automatically, so is it safe to assume it's calculating that for you? Or do you actually have to compute ISA Deviation and enter it on that line? Can't quite wrap my head around that one... any of you FMC/CDU masters fill me in? Thanks much!

I have a DELL Studio XPS system purchased with the Intel i7 860 clocked at 2.8GHz. Intel's Turbo boost technology allows the speed to ramp up to 3.2 GHz when required. In fact when FSX is running I can see on the widget that the processor is continuously running at 3.2GHz. I'm about to purchase 737NGX but I'm a bit concerned about the processor struggling at the default speed especially as I also run Radar Contact,Real Environment 2,Ultimate Traffic 2 and VFR photographic Scenery all at the same time. My full system specs are..... Intel i7 [email protected] DDR3 Ram @666MHzFSX and all relevant software installed on 620 GB HDD @7200RPMnVidia GeForce GTS240 1GBWindows 7 64Bit S…

First, thanks to the development team for creating this work of art. I have been a flight simmer since the very beginning and it is thrilling to see what they have achieved. A new standard has been set. Lesson 1. Read the introduction but if you don't have a high-end system don't push the FSX settings to high. (I did) Lesson 2. Re-calibrate your controllers. (My aircraft wanted to jump out of park, taxied to fast and didn't want to brake.) Lesson 3. Know where the TO/GA touch area is. (I touched it by accident while programming the FMC and went through a fire drill getting everything back under control.) Lesson 4. Know what your external weather engine has …

Hi all, I just wanted to say that I love the NGX; only have a few hours on it but it is really something. Everything works great, but performance could be improved. My system is a couple years old now, and not high performance by today's standards at all. Centrino 2.13Ghz with NVIDIA 9600MGS 1MB and 4GB RAM. Any sugguestions for how I can squeeze more performance out of the plane, not including getting a new system? I have made the tweaks PMDG sugguested in the introduction manual. Cruising, I get 30-35, but not consistently. They drop down to 15 or even 7 sometimes, creating an annoying lag. I do not have FPS limiter, and am running REX 2.0 Overdrive with HD clouds. Also…

I have a Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick. I was surprised all my buttons but one worked, including spoilers and reverse thrusters, just fine on my first flight; however, my A/P button will not work. I have gone through the CDU Keyboard Commands, but have not found an A/P On/Off Command. I did at least find a Command to disengage the A/P. As I understood the instructions, I was to type Z in with my PC keyboard. This did not work. I'm wondering if there is a place somewhere where I have to enable my keyboard to connect with the CDU, and second, how can I make my joystick button turn the A/P On as well as Off. Any advise is appreciated. By-the-way, this aircraft fli…

Hi guys, for some reason the aircraft is always loading with the engines shutdown, but it's not in cold and dark state. I just want to fly when i load up the sim. Instead i am having to go through all the engine start checks every time. Is there a quick way of solving this issue. Many thanks. Mike.

Just as a note, some of the liveries that I downloaded (didn't do all) did not have the HGS Controller installed ( in the center pedestal). Those liveries are:800's Winglets - Air Berlin, United, West Jet, KLM900's Winglets - Continental, UnitedOn those liveries, the click point on the left side of the VC cockpit window wasn't there either.There may be others, but of my downloads, this is what I found.Was it intentionally designed this way??

Is anyone experiencing FSX fatal errors with the NGX? The forums seem pretty quite with crashes and the like. I'm unable to complete a flight, starting to bug me now. My system has no problems with other PMDG aircraft. A ticket has been submitted to PMDG, maybe that's what other people are doing so it's not really showing up in the forum. Here's a copy of the fatal error details of anyone has any ideas, both fatal errors I capture have the exact same information: Problem signature: Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: fsx.exe Application Version: 10.0.61472.0 Application Timestamp: 475e17d3 Fault Module Name: g3d.dll Fault Module Version: 10.0.61472.0 Fa…

Hello! First of all thank you very much for that amazing simulation which runs very nice on my system!Unfortuneately I have two issues to report (not much I think ;-)) 1. I have the problem that the GS information on the PFD (2D Panel) appears very very late although it is already on the standby instrument and on the approach mode. Any idea why? 2. The blue indication on the upper EICAS where you can see what your current hardware throttle position is sometimes disappears for a longer while. Even when I move the throttle (hardware) it doesn´t bring it back. 3. Not a issue but I hope we will see very soon FS2Crew voice commander to make things perfect :-) Thanks and keep o…

Page 0.00.30Last Paragraph • Press the DEL (delete) key at the bottom of the CDU and thenpress LSK 6R to remove the speed and altitude restriction atREDFA. Make sure you enter the delete on the right side of theCDU and not the left. Should read: • Press the DEL (delete) key at the bottom of the CDU and thenpress LSK 5R to remove the speed and altitude restriction atREDFA. Make sure you enter the delete on the right side of theCDU and not the left. Hey if you are a complete step-by-step noob, like me, this could really mess you up. Dennis Trawick

I tried installing a group of liveries with success, except the 800WL liveries did not install. Checked previous livery issues in the forum and and unchecked the read only tab in the CFG file for each. When I go back to install the 800WL liveries it sais --this texture folder already exits. What do I do now.

HiI have been having the following problems since installing the 737NGX I have all my FSX settings to match those in PMDG's introduction and I have just changed the following line:"TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD_1024" to"TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD_4096"in my FSX config file also as per the instruction manual. I have previously added the "HIMEFIX=1" After doing this I firstly had problems with the 737NGX not showing in the window on the free flight page. I could not close FSX so I shut my computer down. When I restarted my computer I had a message saying that there was a problem with starting the operating system. I ran the repair window and waited. Once that was done I started FSX and chose the …
