    Hi when in LNAV with bank limit set for f.ex 10 on the 747 the aircraft stillturns more than the limit. is this an error or is it like this on real?
  2. Captain Caveman
    its just that the flat panel looks so poorly grafics wise. i dont beleve its real if you know what i mean hehe i dont feel like im looking at the real thing. ppl look at the pmdg 747 overhead panel and this md11 panel...anyone preferthe md11 flat one over the 747 angled one? i sure dont
  3. Captain Caveman
    but in rl it is acctualy 3D...here you have to make it look like its got some depth and angleit. flat looks kind of "cheap" and is used by low quality add ons in my mind atleast. i love your products and there very high quality so i think its sad you use flat panel on this one :/so why the change? didnt you like the 747 overhead?
  4. Captain Caveman
    but why the change ? it looked so beautiful on the 747...the "3D" gave a much more realistic feel...and NO virtual cockpit is not the same.

    looks like the overhead panel is "flat" and not a little angled like on the 737 and 747 ? i hope im wrong :/

    when atc plan the traffic do they know the track of the aircraft before giving the heading ?i would assume this is quite important for traffic planing. if a plane has a 15 degrees track off the heading i assume they would wanna know about it...before it happens.
  8. Captain Caveman
    But why does the aircraft let you set hdg on the mcp and not track? andwhy does atc operate with hdg? it makes much more sence to use track since thatsthe direction the aircraft acctualy is going...
  9. Captain Caveman
    When flying the 737 i often get a diffrent track than the heading i have selected.f.ex: heading 180 and track 190. this means that the aircraft flys a little wideways cause of the wind right? with the nose 10 degrees of the direction of the aircraft is flying?and now for the real question:when flying in LNAV the aircraft always flys on the route track, but does it change heading accoring too the wind or is the heading and track the same in LNAV?

    Hi im just wondering what normal VS is during climb and decent with passengerson 737 and 747. Often i dont get down in time for the glideslope with using 2500 as VS and following ATC.should i use even higher?

    RAM

    Captain Caveman replied to a topic in PMDG General Forum

    over 2GB is overkill. the preformace jump from 1 to 2GB isnt very big, its a little improvmentin some cases, depends on the rest of the system to. the preformance jump from 2 to 4GB is like none on the games of today. So when gaming, 1-2GB should be fine. 1GB for low/mid end, 2GB for high end with high res playing
  13. Captain Caveman
    please?
  14. Captain Caveman
    maybe his staff likes the products and go buy them themself, is that bad?is it so bad with some free exposure ?this starts to sound like mpaa and microsoft :s its not like you loose any money on it...
  15. Captain Caveman
    thats has really not much to do with the aircraft. every planes gets rough landings if the conditions are bad
  16. Captain Caveman
    Hi when looking at the paderborn pics i was shocked...there where only "old" people there :( so i really wonder how old you serious simmer like me are...im "only" 21...and if you all work in the airline buiss...i study computer science and only do this for fun.How old are you, and what do you do for a living?
  17. Captain Caveman
    PSS Crew or thread startet:can you please update the post with fixes, new bugs...ect..?
  18. Captain Caveman
    the default 747 is just horrible compared to the pmdg. paneles look ####, major lack of fuctionality and those that are there work totaly wrong. hehe but i guess thatis to be expected. and thats why its so nice to have a company like pmdg :)
  19. Captain Caveman
    how can u install and use the 800/900 without the 600/700 ?the 800/900 is just an addon...

    hi, this has happend on many gfx card. radeon x800xl, 8500pro and now this x1900xtx. its not so hot either so its not the heat. the monitor is an apple 20" cimena display. the image is not burned in, that is for certain. it is something that only happens in fs. the hardware i have now is:Apple 20" cinema displayAthlon 64 3700+MSI KV7Radeon x1900xtxit is propper cooledbut this has happens on many components ever since i got these products.
  21. Captain Caveman
    any thoughts support?
  22. Captain Caveman
    Hi often when using the VNAV for climb and decent it has a very high vertial speed.like 3000-5000 :S anyone have an idea on how to fix this?
  23. Captain Caveman
    Hi, when flying the 747 and 737 i very often can see parts of the 2D cockpitwhen in other cameramodes like outside. it is typical the engines indicatorsand lines on the ND that shows. it isnt very visibel (depending on the background)but if i take i close look i can see it.i have had the same problem though many hardware configs.anyone else have this problem?
  24. Captain Caveman
    yeah landing gear and cockpit is grey :s
  25. Captain Caveman
    i mean on approach, or doesnt it count there?i mean that the aircraft has so low speed when comming to the flaps that if the airplane isnt decending the nose go very much up in order to maintain its altitude.so to me it seems that the flaps should come at a higher speed to maintain proper lift.
