12 hours into my KSEA-OMDB flight. Everything is still working, performance is still good.

What does PMDG releasing a plane have to do with it???

 

Probably a lot.  I find airliners boring but the majority of flight simming is done in airliners.  With more airliners released to 2024 the usage of 2024 will increase.  

Tried the new update of the 300er in MSFS24 after a long absence and got an unresponsive fmc during flight preparation on the first flight. WASM crash I suppose? Another major annoyance is the texture quality of the liveries, at least the Emirates one from the Ops Center V3. You can literally see large pixels of the dirt marks all over the airplane, is there a way to install higher resolution textures somehow?

Indeed. They seem to be simple ports that are not fully compatible. I saw a similar pattern on the belly of the KLM Oranje livery.

best bet would be getting one off flightsim.to

 

Could be my eyes playing tricks on me, but it looks like there's only flex on one wing

I can see it. It's not your eyes.

The only thing about the 777  that is disappointing for me, is  has the worst performance of any of  the tubeliners I fly.

I'm not sure what you're experiencing based on your statement, but it would be beneficial to know and for people to take note if it applies to the user.

In my case, I notice intermittent microstutters. I turned off the EFBs, all traffic, even dialed back on settings, without any success. When I use the Display FPS feature, I notice intermittent spikes on the graph. The only time is when I use the PMDG in MSFS2024. I have a powerful PC, and any other a/c with max settings, I don't have those issues. Smooth as silk. The other problem, more pronounced in 773, is still present in 772: poor implementation of the C*U law during trim speed. While the idea is correct, the reaction of the airplane while hand-flying during speed changes is way off. I can explain if necessary, though it may be difficult for people who have not flown the airplane to understand.

Same. I read somewhere that it was linked to the EFB's home screen and that one should switch to the Loadout screen. But that didn't seem to change anything.

Thanks, I have to try that. Very annoying if that's the case.

Yes

So how does it handle weather now? Is it still super sensitive to wind and thermals on approach?

Absolutely, I'm working on adjusting some items, but it is very challenging due to gauge coding related to that poor implementation of the C*U interference. If you're interested, you can look out for a PM. It's more likely to be for the 772 initially. 

After using Fenix only really in MSFS 2024 i forgot how amazing PMDG is just done first flight the performance is great and its a polished product.

I have not noticed any performance issues with the 777F in MSFS 2020. It feels much the same as my 737-600.

Thanks for the info! 

I only have the 300ER. After being disappointed with that product, I didn't bother getting any of the other variants. It's unfortunate that it still has these issues.
