Hi guys, one question: One the HiFi website it says that AS16 needs P3D version 3.2.3+, but I'm still on v.3.1 and currently don't have the time and nerves to mess around with updating P3D. So, does it really not work with v.3.1 at all? Anyone maybe tried it? Thanks a lot and best regards Olli

Have you been able to resolve the issue meanwhile? Or does anyone else have experience with using a migration tool (for sceneries) and PMDG planes in P3Dv3? Just asking because I just recently switched to P3Dv3 and I am planning on using the EMT tool for installing Tongass Fjords X while I'm also about to buy the P3D versions of the NGX and 777... Kyle, are these problems somehow resolvable (without uninstalling everything) or is it generally not possible to use a migration tool before or after installing a PMDG product in P3Dv3? Thanks a lot and best regards Olli

Great, thanks! :smile:

No mention of the -8F yet... I hope this will also be done? :ph34r: And I still did not really get whether the -8 will be an expansion to the -400 or a separate product, as it appears from Robert's last update that there are two seperate teams working on the two versions...?! :huh: Anyway, the screenshots are looking fantastic! B)

Two little questions in regard to this: 1. Will the additional FO voice sets that come with Emergency NGX also be included in Reboot? 2. Will the abnormal procedures again only work with the AU voice set? Thanks a lot, looking forward to Reboot! ^_^ Olli

You can manually back-up the AIRAC files. Just go to your FSX main folder, open the PMDG folder and then copy the NAVDATA and SIDSTARS folders to a temporary location, so you can paste them back after reinstallation.

Thanks a lot for the update, Robert! One question regarding the "DVD solution": I am a DVD customer but I don't want to use the FSX:SE version, just the "normal" FSX version. - Will there be a Service Pack available for the old FSX version (without FSX:SE), or do I have to wait for the alternative solution including FSX:SE even if I don't need SE-compatibility?

Excellent news to start the new year!! Thanks a lot Robert for the update! :smile: ...and a happy new year to everyone! :Four Leaf Clover:

That's good news! Thanks!

Just completed my first test flight. Let's say it's a solid FS2Crew product, but somehow nothing special about it, and seemingly even less detail and functionality than in previous products. Like the lack of functionailty connected to the audio panel, missing push back, missing de-icing prodcedures, ... Okay, I know, for the latter two there will be UGCX coming at some point in time, but since that might still take a couple of month, it somehow impairs the first impression of the 777 FS2Crew... Also I agree with Peter in this point: So in conclusion... 1. Some basic standards like with the NGX: Audio panel needs to be set-up properly for talking to ground/FA/PA (maybe just as a CFG option) and PA button on the audio panel opens the FS2Crew PA panel. 2. Some long-haul specific things like Oceanic/ETOPS procedures, e.g. a simulated Selcal check by the FO. Anyway... keep the good work up, Bryan - and make it even better... :ph34r: ^_^

Thanks a lot Robert for the comprehensive update!! :smile: Still two questions remain for me :ph34r:: 1. Which 747 variants are planned for the initial release and which for later expansion packs (if any)? I'm asking with regard to the -400F, -8 and -8F. 2. Any plans for a 777-200ER?

At the bottom of the last post on the first page of this thread you will find the current link to the .xlsx verison of the file.

I'm also looking for a good ATC add-on with regional accents and think PFE would be the best in this respect, however I found on an other thread here on AVSIM that there are quite some disadvantages of PFE. The biggest issue seems to be a very cumbersome configuration and usage. Before each flight you need to convert and load your flightplan into PFE, then define the departure and arrival runways and manually program the SIDs and STARs, etc. Also PFE seems unable to adapt to changing wind direction at the arrival airport, at least when using a third-party weather engine. These are the reasons why I'm still hesitating to buy it... In general, ATC Add-ons do not seem to be quite popular. Searching for PFE on youtube I could hardly find any videos showing it in action. And it seems there are a couple of ATC add-ons each having their specific advantages but all of them also having some severe disadvantages making them a no-go for me... :unsure:

I am looking at a quite similar configuration for my new machine, so I'd be happy to hear about your experience with this...

Just came across this thread by coincidence and happened to find what I've always been searching for... a good and non-robotic ATC addon - PFE! :biggrin: Absolutely didn't know PFE before and wanna buy it instantly ^_^, however... WHERE?!?!?! I searched at Aerosoft, simMarket, FlightSimStore, no PFE anywhere... And I even didn't find some type of official developer's website for PFE on the first Google search... :huh: Can anyone help?
