July 14, 201510 yr Commercial Member Attention 737 Drivers: Get your NGX Ready for Reboot! To install Reboot, you will need a clean 737 panel.cfg with no entries from FS2Crew NGX Legacy on it. To get a clean panel.cfg: Easy method: *Re-install the PMDG 737 NGX (SP1D version). That will refresh your panel.cfg file and restore it to its original condition. This is the easiest method. Slightly more involved method: *Using Notepad, open the NGX panel.cfg file and remove any current FS2Crew entries from your current NGX panel.cfg. If you use #2, make sure you do a thorough job. Use the Search command to double check there are no FS2Crew entries on your panel.cfg file. Panel.Cfg link: SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDG 737-800NGX\panel\panel.cfg B.

July 14, 201510 yr Nice! I also plan to update my excel style guide with the three new S O P's and emergency. Mark CYYZ
July 14, 201510 yr If you use #2, make sure you do a thorough job. Use the Search command to double check there are no FS2Crew entries on your panel.cfg file. So what should I search for? /Curt Curt Söderberg Märsta, Sweden (ESSA/ARN)
July 14, 201510 yr Could we also just uninstall the old and start brand new with the new Reboot? Olisa "Ols" Achonye USN/USAF

July 14, 201510 yr Does this mean a release is imminent today? Don't want to go removing stuff I might still use too far before it actually gets installed.
July 14, 201510 yr Does this mean a release is imminent today? Don't want to go removing stuff I might still use too far before it actually gets installed. I have the same question.
July 14, 201510 yr Author Commercial Member Does this mean a release is imminent today? Don't want to go removing stuff I might still use too far before it actually gets installed. We're looking at Friday/Saturday. Good chance we'll make it. We just want to start setting people up now. fs2crew I found 42 separate lines Correct "FS2Crew" will locate all. Frankly, though, re-installing is easier.. less chance to muck something up. B. York FS2Crew Web Site / FS2Crew Facebook Page / FS2Crew Discord
July 14, 201510 yr Can I assume in addition to either scenario used to clean up the panel.cfg, a uninstall of the original FS2Crew 737 NGX program is also necessary? Regards, Al Jordan | KCAE
July 14, 201510 yr Good question. In your testing Bryan, is a install over the top fine, or uninstall a better idea Chris Smith
July 14, 201510 yr Author Commercial Member Can I assume in addition to either scenario used to clean up the panel.cfg, a uninstall of the original FS2Crew 737 NGX program is also necessary? You don't need to uninstall the old legacy FS2Crew NGX product. You can keep it installed. But Reboot uses different panel.cfg entries than Legacy. You cannot have Reboot and Legacy on your panel.cfg file at the same time. Cheers, Good question. In your testing Bryan, is a install over the top fine, or uninstall a better idea Reboot and Legacy are separate programs, with different file names, file paths, etc. So when you install Reboot, you're not overwriting any Legacy files. They are totally separate. B. York FS2Crew Web Site / FS2Crew Facebook Page / FS2Crew Discord
July 14, 201510 yr We're looking at Friday/Saturday. Good chance we'll make it. What? But my kids come back from camp on Friday. That doesn't work for me at all. :wink: I am so impatient. Still looking forward to it! :Big Grin: Mike Keigley
July 14, 201510 yr Are you serious Bryan! Just when I'm about to fly to Tennessee to go volunteer for Habitat for Humanity. I guess I'll have to wait an extra week. Philip LaBianca _____________________ "I think, therefore I am."
