Unable to Save FMC Senario Data in the latest version of 737NGX

Featured Replies

Hi,

I have just upgraded my PMDG737 800/900 NGX to the version 1.20.8869 (the latest version), but I realized that I can no longer save my scenario progress data when I want to pause and pick it up later at another time. There was no problem like this before. Once I reload my saved progress again, the other setting (overhead panel, comm setting etc.) remain but all the FMC data are gone. A screenshot of this problem looks like this (this show how it looks like after I reload the saved scenario):

From the screenshot, you can see that most of the setting has been successfully loaded (The PFD, ND lights up) while the FMC is empty and there are some weird numbers show up above the engine N1 indicator (the red circle). I have lost so many progress, which would be saved in the previous version. The FMC has been fully configured and I was preparing push back when I saved the progress, but it is now empty. I have tested a couple of times and the FMC information is never saved, the issue happened every single time.  

 

Please help. I am currently running P3D v4.3 and using default scenery.

How do you save and load?

 

If you save with the default Sim command and then reload immdiatelly such thinks can happen. In such cases you need to close the sim and restart it.

I have the same issue. I load the saved scenario after reloading P3Dv4.3. In addition to the weird numbers in the upper EICAS I also get repeated voice call out "v2" from the sim.

CDU's are empty and not showing the data set before saving the scenario.

 

I believe your guys need to go back to the development PCs and fix this.

Please sign your posts with your real name first and last as per forum ruels.

I have reproduced this and have already notified the development team

Thanks for reproducing the error. I have waited a long time (8 hours) before I restart the Sim, it still doesn't solve the problem. Please let me know how that problem will be resolved. It is a must-have function for me. Thanks!

The problem will be resolved in a next update. As I wrote the development team knows about it and works to solve it.
