June 19, 20214 yr No airline liveries from down under with the DC-6? Oh well, here is a classic TAA livery I am currently working on, soon to be joined by an Ansett livery from the same era, and if possible one for TEAL as well. So Aussie and NZ simmers, let me know if you are interested - send me a direct message and I will let you know when they are completed! https://www.dropbox.com/s/ebtm4loy3mjn7j2/TAA DC-6.jpg?dl=0 Cheers, Brian L Robinson Flight Simmer since 1983 - loving the brilliant Quality Wings 787 and all PMDG models!!

The latter would be tricky with mountains ahead with the low takeoff angle?

It will CTD. PMDG says it is up to asobo to fix it. And PMDG released like this? Think I'm going to wait and see some more.

As it will work just fine on VATSIM/IVAO. It will be the way the online msfs servers inject models of other addons I would expect.

I just didn't expect release of an addon that crashes with MP enabled. At least not when it's not marked as beta. The fact that MS/Asobo pulled this off with the sim should not mean everyone can do it now IMHO. Laminar Research customer -- Asobo/MS customer -- not an X-Aviation customer - or am I? 😉

You can search for Randazzo's quote in the PMDG forum (Randazzo is the CEO of PMDG), but more or less Randazzo said because the DC-6 is a complex airplane and it's a first of its kind for MSFS, the DC-6 is pushing MSFS to its limit and it's not surprising that this bug wasn't detected before for complex airplanes. Anyways, I'm sure Asobo and PMDG will figure this out sooner, rather than later. i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM

My guess is you'll be wrong. The PMDG servers were hammered over people purchasing this. From the first day of sales, this is looking like a sales success for PMDG, just like the CRJ was a sales success for Aerosoft. i5-12400, RTX 3060 Ti, 32 GB RAM

They probably did test MP but didn't catch it? Most likely, it's a specific set of circumstances that lead to this bug. From my understanding, it's not MP in general that causes the CTD.

We'll probably never know 🙂 However it happened, it's not what I'd expect from the first release from the number one developer. All that self praise on the product page and then this? Pleeeeease. Either he fooled us or his testing is not up to the needs, that's my take away here. Both not what I'd expect from the developer I'm putting high hopes in for MSFS.

Yup, the specific circumstance is 'using the product' 🤣 I'm sure they will fix it, but let's not make excuses for PMDG here, it's pretty sloppy to release a product with an issue like this. It's great when it works of course, but this bug literally is a showstopper on a lot of the flights I've done with it. Alan Bradbury Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here
