PMDG 737 Discussion (PC Version) (Part 1)

Any body getting a pixlelated cockpit? It is present in dx11 and dx12 both pc and vr modes. Also have I’m in the beta 11.

Question on the pushback function - for an automatic pushback, you are required to enter the distance you wish to move. How do you come up with this distance? If you are guessing, you probably won’t be exactly lined up on the taxi centerline, which is less than acceptable. Trying to find an alternative to Pushback toolbar (or whatever it’s called due to multiple comments about this software having a memory leak.

Anybody use the FTSim sound pack update for the PMDG 737? I used it with the Aerosoft CRJ and it was a major improvement (at least to my ears).

Yes, I use FTSim soundpack for 737 and 738. It’s great, At least for me. It adds engine sounds and cockpit sounds that are more realistic than default ones. Or that I think. I recommend it.
And, about pushback, I use GSXpro. It’s annoying sometimes due to certain little bugs, but the immersion it adds does it’s worth buying it.

FS2Crew Pushback Express is another pushback solution that works with PMDG.

Use GSX Pro, and you’ll love it. You can download already customized cfgs for airports and you’re good to go. Also, you can customize your pushback distance and turn (L/R) for every parking, and it’s remembered.

I also use GSX for pushback, it’s great. But you can measure distance from a parking spot to a line with Little Navmap.

Hi I don’t know why you get such a weird panel but in order to settle it you should try a full re install of your 737.

After having this one uninstalled with the PMDG’s system of course.

Sadly goes for more planes then just the 737. Those new thermals are to blame here i think.

Unfortunately i couldn’t solve the problem,annoying situation

Hey does anyone know what ‘NO DES PATH AFTER’ message on the FMC means ?

I have created a flight on simbrief from KBOI to KSEA using the first suggested route and everytime i import it into the FMC and set the appropriate departure/arrival info im greeted with this message (in this case about the waypoint ‘AUBRN’)

I have checked the legs page and everything looks ok and it looks fine in navigraph charts.

Any help appreciated!

That means that the last waypoint in your active legs does not have a defined altitude for descent to follow after it, typically from either a VECTOR or lack of approach being loaded.

Then try again after checking at your registration key. The best when you are asked to insert the key is to make a copy/paste of the said key from your product invoice into your PMDG’s account .

If it does not work then better open a ticket to PMDG. Then are really effective and coming back promptly usually.

Thank you so much I reinstalled the simulator no problem now :+1:

Glad that you made it. Happy flying. :wink:

SU11 seems to be bringing the best looking clouds and live weather for a long time. Climbing out of Sofia LBSF on my way to Skopje in Macedonia. 737 performing beautifully.

I have used Pushback Toolbar since the -700 was released, and have not had any issues with a memory leak. YMMV, but if it’s working for you, not reason to change.

Any one having any issues with bank angle not adhering to what you have the knob set to? I have my knob above FL310 set to a 15 degree bank angle and the plane will bank well beyond that.
