Looks like it’s getting closer…

https://forum.pmdg.com/forum/main-forum/general-discussion-news-and-announcements/164394-07mar22-developers-update-for-pmdg-737-for-msfs-a-dusting-of-little-things

Kindly request someone to post the screenshots in this thread :D

hasn't it been getting closer for a year or so now?

 

 

It's the be all and end all of flight sim 😄 

It was unclear if we will get tutorial videos before released or just previews

I have it on good authority from lots of people on YouTube that is the single greatest piece of software ever written and it will change all our lives in ways we can only imagine.

Right now I would say that the 737 is doing slightly better than I would expect for a new product on a new platform. The number of knee-knockers we are hitting that are related to PMDG-platform interface issues is dropping rapidly, and the number of "this system/functionis behaving incorrectly" reports is rising as a percentage of the whole. This tells me that the platform side of the 737 is really quite stable and that the few issues we know of where there are PMDG-platform interface concerns are well identified and have been mitigated to the greatest extent possible.

Based on this excerpt from Randazzo, it seems  like there aren’t any issues with the MSFS SDK so far in beta. This is good news because there isn’t a “show stopper” that will prevent PMDG from moving forward to complete the beta.  I guessed that the beta test would probably take around 2 to 3 months so I think a release between April to June is the most likely, if there are no “show stoppers.”

Anyone else care to tell us what their crystal ball shows them? These threads are like time warps. 

wondering if the outside texturing is as good as the inside, like bump mapping for rivets etc, that was never one of their strongest qualities.

And you won't have to know anything about flying an airplane, it will do it all by itself. 😁

BTW, this thread is like Deja Vu all over again.

Yes, and I can confirm that everything on youtube is without question completely true; it is after all, where I learned that the Earth is flat and the Moon landings were faked (on Mars). 🤣

It was quite easy to spot before, but since Youtube had the genius idea to remove the dislikes, for some people only the comments, that can be moderated, will separate facts from bullword not alloweds

Yup, not sure why they felt the need to remove downvoting. Yes it was annoying to see some people downvoting my videos literally the moment I posted them, so there was no way they could have actually had time to watch them in order to form such a negative opinion, but generally-speaking and ignoring those few clicked with an obvious agenda, it was useful to gauge what was and was not popular with the like/dislike ratios. I guess it is all part of the touchy-feely PC world we live in nowadays, where you can't say anything bad about anyone any longer without being accused of being mean, a world where every day is the first day of Spring and nothing is ever bad.
