Just run your PMDG Operations center

[03JUN22] PMDG 737 for MSFS Update to 3.00.0020 is released

Awesome!!! 🙂 Thanks for the heads up!

If I'm reading the list of improvements correctly, it looks like they've added the popout panels!

0011283: [General - Suggested/Missing Features] Displays should be able to function as pop-up 2D displays (vscimone)

And there was this important notice at the end of the list of fixes/additions:

IMPORTANT NOTAMS: There are two things we want you to know: First, this is a big update. Run it when you have a few moments to let it do it's thing. Second, our beta team found that for a few of them, the first time they ran the 737 after installing the update, the aircraft sounds did not play properly. We have traced this to the manner in which the sim caches sounds, and it can be easily corrected by simply running the airplane, then exiting back to the world menu and launching the aircraft a second time. For reasons we don't yet understand, the sim does not update the cache on the first run, but it does on the second launch and from then on you will be fine without further need to tinker. (We'll bring this up with Asobo to see if they have ideas to mitigate that problem in the future. It is a very minor nuisance but we'd still like to avoid it if that is possible on the developer end.)

Aerosoft had to tell them how to do this.  Let that sink in.

So what's your point?

That a developer has a good working relationship with one of its competitors to share useful knowledge on the platform? That's no bad thing.

No one is perfect nor omniscient on a new platform that still isn't 100% documented. And @Greggy_D makes fun of it. Let that sink in.

not actually a competitor, Aerosoft have been a PMDG partner and reseller for many years.

A mid-to-lower tier developer (home of Release and Abandon!) had to rescue a supposed high-to-elite plane developer, who previously blamed Asobo (imagine that) for the non-issue.

download done, doing one short flight now. unfortunately I am leaving for the windy city tomorrow for 8 days, no time flying...

They’ll do it again in six months when the EFB still hasn’t been implemented lol

If only they'd released this morning, mine has been in the air 5 hours today!

Fallacy.  Simply stating facts.
