May 8, 201115 yr Hi,I use squawkbox 4 to connect to vatsim. BUt Im having so much trouble. Partly cause the pmdg 747 wont work with it. Now I cant connect. Can someone tell me there techniques on how to connect. I already went to the vatsim forums and they have not replied yet. What I do is load up the plane into fs and then connect externally. It works but then freezes and then I have to shut it down with task maneger Joe Barton
May 8, 201115 yr It's the SB4. PMDG has nothing to do with it. Use FSInn if SB4 doesn't work for you. Cheers! Richie Walsh
May 8, 201115 yr Commercial Member There is a known bug regarding SB and PMDG 747 but i dont think this is the case.The bug is that most of the times, you dont have the needles of the VORs appearing in the PFD....FSINN works great... __________________________________________________________________________________________ My FS Photos - My MSFS Settings - i7-14700K / 64GB RAM / MSI 4070 Ti SUPER / 1440p
May 8, 201115 yr You should troubleshoot your connection issues a bit deeper before you start blaming payware addon aircraft. AJ Pongress
May 8, 201115 yr You should troubleshoot your connection issues a bit deeper before you start blaming payware addon aircraft.Gents,I have been using the 744 with SB4 since it was in beta and other than the SB4 known issues the 744 works fine. George Morris
May 9, 201115 yr Author thanks everyone,Yes I went to the SB forums and they said it was SB. Could my internet connection be the problem. I currently have 10gigabits but will upgrade to 160gigabits in a month. Would that help? Joe Barton
May 9, 201115 yr Do you have power on the aircraft ?? SB4 will do nothing if the aircraft is not powered up. I use SB4, and the PMDG744 and have been for along time, no probs at all Thanks Paul www.airlinephoto.co.uk
May 9, 201115 yr Commercial Member I use FSInn... it's a pain to set up (it's a beta that they abandoned development on several years ago), but it's good once you have it working. Ryan MaziarzFor fastest support, please submit a ticket at http://support.precisionmanuals.com

May 9, 201115 yr Did you open SB4 outside FSX ? using the icon rather then FSX's menu ?? Thanks Paul www.airlinephoto.co.uk
