pmdg 777 no gears on ground, no avionics, unable to control joy stick

Hi guys:

 

 I don't know if its me or probably more people are experiencing problems with their PMDG 777, as it loads to FSX Steam, all the electrics are off and unable to use them, because the buttons are unusable. Im also unable to even use the throttle, or anything on the aircraft. Has anyone come with a solution, as why the software is behaving like that??

The PMDG 777 and NGX are not yet compatible with the Steam version of FSX. Flexnet is the service that runs in the background which insures that your PMDG add-on is legally licensed, and that service won't run under Steam yet.

 

PMDG is working on making their newer products compatible with the Steam FSX, but they have not announced a target date for that. Older PMDG add-ons, like the FSX version of the MD-11 WILL work on Steam - at least if installed on a system that does not also have the original FSX installed.
