Project magenta and pmdg

Hello there,

I try to understand if for my home cockpit i can use Pm for the strument of pmdg 737

thanks

Yes you can
check my old sim pit website (outdated, but the essential info there is still valid). I used PM extensively back then…

essentially I would like to use the glass cockpit, on my monitors

This depends to actual PM interface state.

You need ask devs from PM if they have new MSFS interface. Sry, I don’t know, I just recommend to be careful because in case PM hasn’t changed their interface to MSFS then no possible. Many changes are in MSFS and with PMDG also due MSFS.

i try PM demo… but i dont seen update on they “instrument”

eeeeehm

you mean no actual data, update? As I said, check PM web page because they did some interface via FSUIPC to their SW previously so I expect maybe in case of MSFS FSUIPC7 as bridge. I don’t have FSUIPC now (had with FS9 times as interface to my apps) because I did my app via SimConnect API to FSX and now don’t have reason to do that again with v7.

PM works perfectly with MSFS 2020, I use it all the time.

I tried using PMDG with PM, all went well, you can assign everything using tools like FSUIPC and hardware like cpflight is directly compatible with PMDG, but the final no-go was trying to get the 4 PMDG DUs (Capt PFD/ND, FO PFD/ND, Upper Eicas, Lower Eicas) onto monitors on a separate, networked PC (ie a PC that does not have MSFS). This you cannot do currently and PMDG are not developing this.

You can pop-out the DUs to the SAME pc as MSFS, but this does not achieve what you need if you have a full-sized cockpit, and it destroys frame rates.

So even with PM software which has all the DUs, you cannot get them to communicate with PMDG DUs.
