using pmdg panel for another plane

[vgage]

Please forgive me if this is in the wrong section. I was wondering if I could use the pmdg 737 2 d panel in other freeware planes? Will the fmc work if you do this? I found a plane the HSST. I like it. A very nice future concept of air travel. The default panel is just lacking and after learning the fmc thought it would be nice to be able to use it in another plane.Vincent

Last name too please.The FMC will not work. The PMDG planes are constructed in a different manner than the FS default.

No, this won't work - there's many things that are directly tied to the model, FDE etc through hard coding.

Thanks guys. Any recommended panel that is better than the default panel. I am just so use to FMC so hard to go back. I have overland planes which I do not fly at all now. I use PMDG Level D and the PSS 757 and 777. I have the captain sim when it first came out with the 757. After so many bugs and install problems and buying so many blocks that now that I have it to work. I do not fly it. I am glad I read somewhere that PMDG is doing a 777. Very nice if that is true. Now that I have an I7 pc and 8 gigs of ram I am flying FSX more. Just need a good video card. Any ideas on what to get? What is a top of the line video card?Vincent

I wonder if we can code those perfect FMC etc with XML?

Absolutely not - our FMC is coded in pure C++, it's not something you can view or edit. These aren't simple gauges, there's like 100,000+ lines of code there.

What 100 000 lines that's a lot for me. Now I understand how hard it is to make all that without bugs. Wish you guys could share some of that knowledge. I know an addon where they the have SDK (C or C++ language files for the MCP and AFDS). But not many can understand it. :(
