Set Course commands not working?
Ah ha! Muddy waters to the rescue! Wasn't that a band? Thanks Bryan, and my apologies for distracting you during your final update checks. Now please, get back to work!

Set Course commands not working?
Ah, that could explain it - the word "on" was never required in previous versions. Nuance difference like this between versions drive me insane. I will give it go this weekend. Yup, I'm sure as SOP2 is all I have ever used. To clarify however, it's only the fixed landing lights (two right switches) that are always turned on at 18k feet, regardless of the 10k setting in the FS2Crew options.

Set Course commands not working?
Hi Bryan, Having just read about the status of the upcoming update to Reboot with Emergencey (cool), I was reminded of a few recent repeatable observations I hope you might be able to check and/or fix before the update is released. The following two phrases used to work flawless for me prior to Reboot. This using the latest available version of reboot and all other Reboot functions and phrases operate normally. Perhaps these are already in the update - not sure... Using SOP2: Landing lights at 10k decent are ignored - still toggled at 18k. Using SOP2 (The phrases are completely inop) Set Course my side xxx Set Course your side xxx Thanks and regards,

Transponder during taxi not working?
Good to know, Bryan. Glad I could help!

Transponder during taxi not working?
That's what I mean, he's not doing it before taxi and I'm completing all the checklists on every flight. He doesn't touch the transponder knob until the 'entry procrdure'.

Transponder during taxi not working?
Hi Bryan, I've recently noticed that my transponder is no longer being set to 'TA' during taxi. I've triple-checked this over the past five flights or so, making sure the briefing has ASDEX set to yes. It also doesn't seem to make a difference if the "Use TARA" option is set to yes or no. The transponder is still turned on/TARA when doing the before-entry-procedure. This is using v1.7 with the latest T7 version. All other FS2Crew functions seem to be fully operational. Thanks for your thoughts... Edit: I should probably add, this using Prepar3D v3.1 on Win10x64Pro.

Failures from FSPASSENGERS P3d
Thanks Nick, that does sound interesting indeed.

Failures from FSPASSENGERS P3d
I wouldn't run any FSP failures alongside a PMDG or any other advanced aircraft. I hope FSP allows failures to be completely disabled (haven't read-up on it, yet), which would be a major improvement. In the past, FSP was notorious for causing a 'blown-tire' event on the NGX even with very smooth landings, and there was absolutely no way to disable it; search for the issue on their forums, it went on for many months. It was the number one reason I stopped using the FSP add-on. What's worse, the developer (Dan) absolutely refused to address or even acknowledge any issues. Now he shows backup trying to pump out a version just before Christmas. I almost always give FS developers the benefit of the doubt, but I will be very cautious with this program before it sees one more penny from me.

Pro ATC X question
FWIW, after setting ProATCx to run in Win7 compatibility mode on my FS-client, all my ProATCx crashes seemed to cease; using the latest version 1.7.x. P3Dv3 and the FS-client are running on Win-10 Pro PC's.

Help - MJC8 & FS2Crew Voice in P3Dv3
Hey Bryan, FYI, MJC8 1.017RC2 with formal P3Dv3 support was posted last night. http://majesticsoftware.com/forums/discussion/2066/mjc8q400-version-1-017rc2#Item_1

PMDG AIRAC not installing.
If your running the NaviGraph AIRAC Install Manager, compared all the other titles it can install, the PMDG install-path is unusual in that you must chose the root of the flightsim directory (set it to manual or use the 'scan' feature). The Install Manager will automatically find the PMDG and Navdata subfolders when you install and AIRAC. For example, the install-path in the GUI for PMDG should read D:\FSX or D:\P3D. They did this to accommodate all previous possible locations of the PMDG Navdata folder over the years.

Help - MJC8 & FS2Crew Voice in P3Dv3
Aha, No wonder :excl: LOL... Thanks Bryan - the latest version of the Dash8 installs and starts in P3Dv3 without issue. MJC is waiting on a P3D patch to fix a couple of aircraft bugs. http://majesticsoftware.com/forums/discussion/2028/mjc8q400-pilot-edition-under-prepar3d-v3-0#Item_1 Question - when does the panel.cfg get modified by FS2Crew; during the install or when you enable it? If the later, then it should still be unmodified, correct? Guess I'll go back to installing more scenery for now - let me know if you need a install-beta-tester. :wink:

Help - MJC8 & FS2Crew Voice in P3Dv3
Hi all, I've been rebuilding my flghtsim rig with P3Dv3. I've successfully installed the latest MJC8 v1.017RC1 and FS2Crew Voice v1.3. As shown in the screen capture, when I attempt to enable FS2crew, I get a FS2Crew error stating the Prepar3D.exe is not correctly registered, then quits. I was sure to chose the 'P3D v2+' option during the install. The latest FS2Crew voice with the PMDG 737 and 777 do not exhibit this behavior (works as expected) in P3Dv3. Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Experiences flying with Prepar3d v3
Yes of course the "bucket" of memory has not changed - no one said it did. But there is a hole in the bottom of that bucket (flushing scenery/memory/water) and LM changed the size of that hole. I'm asking is users to communicate their personal experiences with the new scenery/memory flushing code and how it affects their 'heavy' PMDG flights.

Experiences flying with Prepar3d v3
After 9 years with FSX, I'm taking the Prepar3D plunge with V3; fresh SSD's arrive tomorrow for the build-out. I'm really curious to know if anyone has been able to force a VAS/OOM issue with the T7 or NGX using v3? I'm talking FSDT/FBST, GEX, UTX, ASN, REX clouds, Mesh, 100% AI (no cars) - perhaps between two known heavies like KLAX and EGGL - running 2048 texture res? Robert really got my curiosity up with their scenery/memory observations... Please, can we hear about your v3 vas/memory success stories?

Get your NGX Ready!
Can I assume in addition to either scenario used to clean up the panel.cfg, a uninstall of the original FS2Crew 737 NGX program is also necessary?

Help - Saitek Modal Switch with new 'Shifted' keys
Sorry guys, between the discussion above and the redesign of 2.6.3, I'm still confused. So, with my Saitek Cessna yoke and Throttle-Quad, the three position mode switch (left=btn 23, center=btn-24, and right=btn-25), is it now possible to shift both the yoke and the throttle-quad buttons as a complete set via the mode button? Can I have three sets of buttons, btn23=unshifted (my default mode), 24=shifted1, and 25=shifted2 somehow? How does the bottom-right checkbox "shift all devices globally" play into the equation? I did look around for some updated notes on the subject to no avail, so far. Thanks in advance...

Kyle, do you know if the T7 advance style of acceleration is in the sp1d beta (slows-down for waypoints and turbulence)? Thanks,

Bryan - just a few things for 1.2
Hi Bryan, I was wondering if the above command request, to enable or disable both the GPU and Air-cart, made into v1.2? I don't see it mentioned in the online-manual. enable voice to (dis)connect both the gpu and air-cart in one request (sentence) like the 737NGX. Thanks...

[24JAN15] FSX:SE Compatibility and Other Juicy News...
As the capt. said in his OP, the full installer SP1D is v1.10.6320. This version number is stated at the top of the readme.txt file included within the zip that you download from the PMDG website - yes, you have to login and look at your previous orders. It is SP1D and should work with both FSX:MS and FSX:SE. If in doubt, check the version number at the top of the readme.

[24JAN15] FSX:SE Compatibility and Other Juicy News...
As far as I know and it's been said here plenty of times over the years, all PMDG full-installers are immediately updated when service packs (updates) are released. So the full-installers now available in your PMDG account details page, are the same as your previously download installers and updaters. If in doubt, check the version number at the top of each readme.txt file included within all their download zips.
