PrecipitFX seems not be working properly with New PMDG 747 II

Featured Replies

Installed PrecipitFX with 747 II installed on FSX,  could not see any jet blast and or wheel spray on  rainy runway,  something different with this new bird...other PMDG aircraft works perfectly..

Did you run VFXCentral for it to configure the aircraft?

You have to click the override button! But may you guys did a package like with e 777 for the 747 in the near future?

 

And it is not PMDG 2, it is v3!?

 

PMDG 747 v3 has own touchdown smoke and contrail. If you want the PMDG one instead of the VFX one you have do edit it manualy or copy my effect line below! Bring back the PMDG effects in the effects section of your aircraft.cfg and clean the PFPX lines!

The red lines are the PMDG original effects

The green lines are defaults not changed with PFPX

 

For me it works.

And it is not PMDG 2, it is v3!?

 

Actually the official title from Precision Manuals is "PMDG 747-400 Queen of the Skies II"

It is the Queen of the Skies 2, it is just the 3rd 747 from PMDG (FS9 and FSX and now the new one).
