September 23, 20187 yr Hi Manfred There was an issue with the 3.0.9 download. Please try again and ensure that you have the latest PMDG737NGX module 4.12 installed. If problem reoccurs try restarting the LUA engine (<CTL>+<ALT+<R>).

September 23, 20187 yr Author Hi Andrew, i have done all your advise, but nothing has changed. Q: Where you set GSXReady to true ? Manfred Maier Edited September 23, 20187 yr by mmaier Regards Manfred Maier
September 23, 20187 yr Guenseli will need to answer that question. Andrew Gransden Scotland, UK LINDA Support/Developer - VATSIM and BAVirtual - Airbus Flyer i7 1TB SSD GTX980 - FSX/P3D - Aerosoft Airbus A318/A319/A320/A321 - FS2Crew
September 24, 20187 yr Hello Manfred, You can download a version 1.3 which should hopefully fix your error: GSX_lib 1.3 Please try and report back. 23 hours ago, mmaier said: Q: Where you set GSXReady to true ? I also do not understand your question. Why should you want to set it to true? GSX ready is just a function in the lib to show you that the GSX library is active for the current plane And what description do you need? There's some info in the original download thread Guenter Steiner -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Betatester for: A2A, LORBY, FSR-Pillow Tester --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
September 24, 20187 yr Author Hello Guenter Steiner, Checked with lib-GSX.lua Vers. 1.3 PMDG 747-400 ... OK PMDG 747-8I ...... OK PMDG 737-800 there is a error as before, but now at Line 286. Manfred Maier Regards Manfred Maier
September 24, 20187 yr Thank you very much. Could you please download another file and test: GSX lib Guenter Steiner -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Betatester for: A2A, LORBY, FSR-Pillow Tester --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

September 25, 20187 yr Author Hallo Guenter Checked: PMDG 737NGX Airplan-Status: Ground and Engine running ... OK Airplan-Status: Ground and Engine not running ... ERROR (cold and dark also cold and APU on) Manfred Maier Regards Manfred Maier
September 25, 20187 yr Manfred, I have no idea, sorry. I tried also the 737-800 without issues … One last thought: can you read the aircraft.cfg file and tell me what is writen in the line "title"? As example, the PMDG standard livery reads "title=PMDG 737-800NGX PMDG House" Does the issue happen with different liveries, other 737 variants or just with one livery? Please, if so, post the "title" line here. Would be interested in the "title" anyway, but the GSX ready display is not very important. You can open the actions.lua in the LINDA aircraft 737 folder and comment the line GSX_Ready_Display () to -- GSX_Ready_Display () Guenter Steiner -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Betatester for: A2A, LORBY, FSR-Pillow Tester --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

September 26, 20187 yr For LINDA to match with different variants of the same aircraft it is essential that the Sync to Sim window matches the shortest common part of the aircraft's name. In all the cases above, this should be "PMDG 737" and is defined in the file ident.lua. If you click on Edit button (top line) you should see, Module Name (eg. PMDG 737NGX) and Aircraft Search String (eg. PMDG 737) and a list of the matched a list of the matching aircraft. If the search string has been altered then the reported could occur.

September 26, 20187 yr Author Andrew i changed C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\Modules\linda\aircrafts\PMDG 737-800NGX\ident.lua from simfolder="PMDG 737-800NGX" to simfolder="PMDG 737" Nothing has changed the same error with airplan-status cold/dark. Linda SYNC TO SIM = PMDG 737-800NGX With Edit button the Aircraft Search String is now "PMDG 737". I think you're on the wrong track, but why only cold/dark brings the error. I used -- LINDA GSX Library 1.2 -- ## sys functions - do not assign############### -- ## ############### -- currently supported planes: -- PMDG 747, 777, NGX -- Majestic Dash 8 -- Leonardo Maddog X Manfred Maier I think you're on the wrong track, but why only cold/dark brings the error. <<<<<<<< I take back you're right I have found with FSUIPC 5.14 in lib-GSX.lua 1.2 at line 169 acftname = ipc.readSTR("3D00", 35) Variable 3D00 value (AsciiZ) = [28]"Boeing 737-85PNGX Air Europa" so line 173 GSX_PMDG_737 () Never comes into action Manfred Maier Edited September 26, 20187 yr by mmaier new findings Regards Manfred Maier
September 26, 20187 yr How many PMDG 737 modules do you have installed? There should only be one each entitled PMDG 737NGX in the /linda/aircrafts/ and /linda-cfg/aircrafts/. Only PMDG 737NGX should appear in the Sync to Sim box. It sounds like you have more than one. There should be no suffix like -800.

September 26, 20187 yr ok, then I know what happened: You have different titles with your planes: one reads PMDG 737 and the other one reads Boeing 737. The original reading should be PMDG 737 etc. So, the liveries you use are not correct from the producer of the liveries. I will try to make a fix for that case Guenter Steiner -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Betatester for: A2A, LORBY, FSR-Pillow Tester --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
