PMDG B737-800 weather hack

Featured Replies

Some how, they've managed to integrate it with WX500

I think this only works with the FS9 version of the PMDG aircraft.

 

Could the authors of OPUS impart some of their wisdom?

 

Do you think this is implementable on the NGX? Any plans to use your programming wiz to create a weather radar that can be 'hacked' into the ND and EFIS panel of the NGX and subsequent PMDG aircraft?

 

Cheers.

Same, I could actually care less if it was really working good or not.

You guys any good with messing with virtual cockpit panel files? 

 

All it requires is some knowledge with the NGX panels and a lot of patience...

 

There is a 'NDWX' gauge file that someone created to overlay onto the EFIS, and ND (its in a link on that website I posted).

Precisely.

 

I wonder if RL sims have WXR?..............the pilots have to get used to it, useing it ect and how it works..

 

I cant see pilots learning something detremental to flight safty, whilst 'on the fly'...

 

I mean, if there not simulating a storm popin up on the wxr, how are they training thereself to react to it during a real flight?

Hi William, please let us know if you get it to work with the NGX.

 

So far it seems to be sucessful with the PMDG FS9 737-800 NG; I don't know if anyone has even attempted it with the NGX.
