May 28, 200521 yr Hi,I`ve that problem:After installing the PMDG-800/900 my cockpit of the "old" PMDG-700 has changed and looks differents concerning the layout of instruments etc...I would like to fly the B737-600,700 still the old "classic" style (as it looked *before* installing the 800/900.So my question: Is there a way to switch over to the *"Classic"* (the way it looked before the upgrade) cockpit style of the 600,700 or do I have to deinstall the 800/900?Many thanks in advance...:) :)GreetingsSusan
May 28, 200521 yr Never noticed any "layout" changes, but the 800/900 permanantly changes the look of the panel with reference to the color, lighting, and overall appearance. The original 600/700 panel wasn't a very accurate representation of the real NG, so PMDG changed a bunch of things to make it look more realistic. You do get used to it after a while, and it's much better anyhow.If you're talking about the instruments within the glass LCDs, then you now have the EFIS/MAP style to choose from, which is the "classic" style that the non-glass panels had. If you have the EFIS/MAP, and want your PFD/ND back, then go to the menu-bar while active in the sim/cockpit by hitting the ALT ket and selecting the PMDG from the menu. In there under 'Styles', IIRC, you'll find a choice between those two items and a few other options.With the 800/900 you get a bunch of new things, mostly desired is the functional TCAS II, so I wouldn't remove it. - Chris Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX | Intel Core i9 13900KF | Gigabyte GeForce RTX 4090 24 GB | 64GB DDR5 SDRAM | Corsair H100i Elite 240mm Liquid Cooling | 1TB & 2TB Samsung Gen 4 SSD | 1000 Watt Gold PSU | Windows 11 Pro | Thrustmaster Boeing Yoke | Thrustmaster TCA Captain X Airbus | Asus ROG 38" 4k IPS Monitor (PG38UQ) Asus Maximus VII Hero motherboard | Intel i7 4790k CPU | MSI GTX 970 4 GB video card | Corsair DDR3 2133 32GB SDRAM | Corsair H50 water cooler | Samsung 850 EVO 250GB SSD (2) | EVGA 1000 watt PSU - Retired
May 29, 200521 yr Hi Chris,thanks very much...I "fixed" the problem with your help...and yes, I meant the instuments location inside the glass-cockpit (I prefer PFD/ND)...Now, it`s the way I like it most...:)Have a nice SundaySusan
