April 25, 201610 yr Well there are new add-ons for different simulators released. Check out the Froolgesim channel every single Sunday. He has news about new software that is released or about to be released. The latest big thing that was released was the IXEG 737 Classic. This is a study aircraft for X-Plane 10. Andrew Ayad

April 25, 201610 yr Hello Is there any new news on the 747 ..literally anything it's been quite a while since I've seen anything and the forum seems a bit dead If there's been anything new that I missed please disregard this topic and point me towards it Thank you Dave Sullivan Dave, if you don't mind a little piece of valuable info, the mainpage to this forum has a bunch of stickied items at the top, one of which discusses planned work by PMDG. Adding to what Andrew stated, if there is something newsworthy coming down the pipes, PMDG will let us know and you will know when it comes because they'll break the internet, like they always do. -Jim Engage, research, inform and make your posts count! -Jim Morvay Origin EON-17SLX - Under the hood: Intel Core i7 7700K at 4.2GHz (Base) 4.6GHz (overclock), nVidia GeForce GTX-1080 Pascal w/8gb vram, 32gb (2x16) Crucial 2400mhz RAM, 3840 x 2160 17.3" IPS w/G-SYNC, Samsung 950 EVO 256GB PCIe m.2 SSD (Primary), Samsung 850 EVO 500gb M.2 (Sim Drive), MS Windows 10 Professional 64-Bit
April 28, 201610 yr I have noticed a trend that when PMDG releases a highly anticipated airframe, the machines VISA uses at your local stores seems to be having LAG with cc purchases....

For those of you who don't know what they are ask your parents :) Praying PMDG brings MD-11 to P3D v4 (7 years and counting) Will be a PMDG customer for life if this happens!
April 28, 201610 yr That's interesting actually - I wonder if it puts a strain on PMDG's systems when there's a massive download rush on releasing a product. A
April 28, 201610 yr Commercial Member I wonder if it puts a strain on PMDG's systems when there's a massive download rush on releasing a product. We distribute through Amazon's AWS, so, not entirely. If a bunch of people try to download it within the same area, things will slow down, but if you're the only person up on that node, you'll crush download speeds at your limit between you and the node. Luckily, the Ashburn Data Center isn't too far from me, so everything off of AWS is quick. Kyle Rodgers

I've heard it's enough to cause butterfly wings to flap in the rain forest. I remember when the FS9 747 was released the PMDG site crashed. Ironic given the brilliant graphic on the website showing a 747 breaking through a brick wall. Going by Kyle's reply things have changed since then.

Actually, It wasn't just the PMDG site, Avsim's crashed too because so many people were refreshing the forum waiting for a release announcement. The arrival of that big bird came a lot closer to breaking the Internet than that Kardashian girl ever did. Andrew Jones
