I just purchased last night the 747-400X/-8i aircraft from PMDG. Installed it without problems and immediately loaded a short flight from Malpensa to Frankurt. Started at the gate and requested cateriing service via GSX so I could see how it works with a 747. That´s when I discovered I could not open the doors. I´ve search the internet for solutions to the problem but failed in my quest. I do understand that one must assingn commands and the only one that works for me now is "shift + f12" to open all doors. I don´t need all of the doors to open, just certain ones that GSX utilizes.

 

If anyone has working keyboard assignments to open the doors can you please share?

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi George,

 

You can allocate keyboard commands to open doors.

 

It's accessed in your FSX menu under "Add-ons" > "PMDG" > "* Keyboard Commands..." > "Cargo" and "Doors"

 

I just recently bought a Logitech G110 keyboard and also assigned the doors/loaders/stairs to the "G keys" on left of he keyboard (G1 - G12)

I allocated CTRL+SHIFT+1 to 8 for all the doors I needed. That's all the left side doors, cargo doors, and a couple of the right side doors for GSX catering. Works good for me!

Thanks Will, that´s what I was searching for.
