PMDG  users are having some problems with the latest MSFS Beta.  In addition, the PMDG ops center server is down this morning, and they are working on it.

Good to hear, just bought the 737-800 this morning and couldn't update it before I went to work.

Still down from what I can see.

Yes, I just looked on their forum for the 737, and the Notam about the server being down, they put up this morning is still there. They said they would remove it when the server is working again, so it appears it is still down. 

 

 

 

Emi (PMDG Tech team member, real 737NG pilot and YouTuber) just made a video recommending all PMDG users to roll back to SU11*, due to "multiple reported things in the PMDG that are now broken due to SU12b".    However, he then went on to mention only one - the parking brake.  Is anyone seeing any other bugs with the PMDGs and SU12 beta?

*He then went on to say that anyone who has already had the SU12 beta installed, and who wants to go back to SU11, will probably need to reinstall MSFS!    I have SU12 beta, and I accept that it is just that ... a beta.... I actively report bugs to Asobo, for each beta.

.....but as much as I love the PMDG, I am not going to reinstall MSFS, just to be able to have a working parking brake on it!

Apparently some 737 users on the beta, can't get the parking brake to release, no matter what they do. Therefore, they can't taxi or takeoff....

The parking brake is the primary one. Everything else seems to work fine. I had a panel state saved with the parking brake released and aside from that everything worked. Did a V1 Cut and it worked fine.

Not accurate. If you start at gate, true. Start on RWY no issues

Just going by what people posted on the 737 forum. I don't have the beta, so no issues at all. 

 

 

 

PMDG said that when the NOTAM got took down, that the server would be working again. I managed to install the 600.700,800 and the DC6 in the last 30/60 minutes. Unless it's back down again?

Just tested the PMDG (-700) in SU12.    For me, no issues releasing the parking brake and no other issues that I can spot.    In know in the past some couldn't release the parking brake as their brake axis wasn't quite hitting 100% - I tested my pedal axes and both are hitting 100%.

Ununsual to be one of the lucky ones, but for me, I can't find any issues with the PMDG in SU12.

Happy days.
