FSX steam - PMDG does not work

Recommended Posts

I bought PMDG 737NG(Base package) few weeks ago. PMDG does not work consistently in my FSX steam edition - it sometimes work, and sometimes does not.

When it does not work, the load out setting is almost identical to the default 737 in FSX, and all screens are black and buttons don't work.

Strangely, even if I select 737-800 PMDG, there is a HUD on Captain's cockpit when PMDG is not working.

 

I completely reinstalled and installed FSX steam edition and removed all remaining data from my hard drive two times(including PMDG),

but PMDG is still unreliable.

Is there some other measure? Or is there any other kind of repair tool from PMDG?

 

Thanks.

Props to whoever is going to be the first one to understand that sentence.

There is no HUD in the cockpit when PMDG800 works fine. Actually, HUD is not supposed to be in the cockpit for vanilla FSX 737 for that matter.

I already wrote the symptoms on that sentence, you could read it there. Also, even if HUD is an option I mentioned it because I did not set it as an option.

Seems to me you are a troll.

Your sentence wasn‘t really understandable... maybe a language thing, but I didn‘t get it either. 30K is far from being a troll, he‘s a known participant on this forum and pretty helpful if one provides enough information. You said it didn‘t work, but that won‘t help anyone to solve any problems. It might be best to use to officiall support as suggested by Olympic260 who is an officiall PMDG member, in opposite of us.

Since another person think so too, I guess I wasn't clear.

This is what I wrote; the aircraft is essentially dead.

Anyway I found out that it was a simconnect issue. Thanks.

I had this happen when I set a default flight on FSX by mistake, which had the NGX as the default aircraft. You see only the HUD, the VC is not clickable and the 2d panels are messed up. Just keep the trike as default aircraft.
