Installing in a new system and ...

Featured Replies

Hi,

I am moving to a new PC and with FSX SE installed, I've downloaded the latest versions of my NGX purchases and after installing it, the plane acts weird (full right aileron stucked). Then, I've realized the Options Menu is missing, and all my DLLs (except the HUD interface one) are not on the PMDG folder.

Tried everything to reinstall again: safe mode, running in administrator mode, disabing antivirus and firewall, etc ... to no avail.

Please, help!

 

Thanks!

Rafael,

 

The PMDG Options menu is for our older aircraft like the 744 and MD11. If you did not install those into FSX:SE (they aren't Steam compatible), then you will not see the Add-Ons > PMDG Options menu.

 

Sounds more like you might not have read the README file in the ZIP file that you downloaded, instructing you to install the SimConnect.msi files. Did you do this?

Hi Kyle!

 

Too sad to know MD11 is not Steam compatible  :sad2:  Will it ever be?

 

And yes, I read and installed the simconnect files as instructed before installing the NGX. 

 

What files should I see in the DLL folder?

 

Thanks!

Unlikely. I think there are posts here on the forum by people who have gotten it to work. We don't prohibit it; we just don't support it.

No idea. It would depend on what you have installed, and I don't have my sim comp in front of me to compare.

Did you download the new installer for both the 800/900 and 600/700 (if you have both)?

Hmm...are you getting the initialization countdown?

For me, both MD-11 and NGX is working in FSX:SE, although I'm seeing some funny behaviour with the responsivness of the mouse on the FMC. Will have to check of the  vs200X are installed correctly .
