Just some additional info I thought I should share with regards to this same topic I originally started..I still occasionally get the fuel levers not being recognized in the cutoff position even after I deleted all mixture control commands in flight sim controls but when I reload the aircraft it resolves the issue. I'm not sure if its because the PMDG 737NGX was not initialized properly the first time around, which could be a result of moving the fuel levers to cutoff before the initialization countdown is completed (just my guess) but the mixture control command deleting is definitely not a fix for me.

For some reason the virtual officer frequently and incorrectly interprets the command 'packs off', 'packs auto' or 'packs high' and responds to the command, even when I am not speaking. The commands I give for the most part are no where close to that in terms of pronunciation. I know its not a perfect program and based on how you speak can result in an occasional misinterpretation with some words but this problem with this one command is so frequent one has to consider it may be a program glitch. As a matter of fact, sometimes the First officer's own voice triggers this anomaly during checklist call and response. I also do not recall experiencing this problem with the older versions of FS2Crew.

I understand, keep up the good work in adding the immersion of flying. I no longer want to fly commercial aircraft without fs2crew.

I will look into the manual some more but I had ruled out skipping out a segment because I never have the issue on the first flight of the day. I don't see how I would skip a segment by accident every-time on the second leg

I got everything to work now. Thanks for the help.

I see that you guys came out with FS2CREW Global First Officer including most regions with the exception of the Caribbean. Being from the Caribbean I feel as though we too should be able to have our own voice sets as well or even the option of customizing them by recording anyone's voices as an alternative.

When I am doing my first flight the FO calls out V1 rotate etc but on the second leg and thereafter FO doesn't call out 80 knots nor the V speeds and he does not say positive rate and does not respond to the gear up commands. Anything after that flight phase he operates as normal. I'm fully aware of the procedures and commands which i execute on the first leg but when i'm doing another flight the takeoff segment it just does not work for me. Am I missing something?

The FO does his after start flows when I say flaps 5 which is great, but during the preflight checklist he is still seeing the fuel levers in the run position and responds still saying "Are you sure?" even though I have it in the cutoff position. Your suggestion helped with the first issue but not the one that i'm mentioning here again.

Before starting the engines I would tell the FO start sequence two then one but when I command him to start the first engine after starting the second FS2CREW automatically goes to the FLAPS section without evening going through the after start flows. which leaves me to have to do it myself. This is something that recently started happening. I tried reinstalling FS2CREW and I even tried even uninstalled and then reinstalled the PMDG before reinstalling the FS2CREW but without any luck. My firewall was disabled and windows defender were disabled each time I reinstalled it. I'm out of ideas in trying to resolve this issue. Also on a side note, the FO does not recognize my fuel levers in the cutoff position on my first flight so during the preflight checklist he responds "Are you sure?" to the fuel levers status.

The best thing to do is to run in windowed mode so you can still do other things outside of the sim. EMB series seems to only crash with minimizing and instant replays.

That is the point and objective of flight simulation. To make the experience as real as possible down to the wire. If your reason is because your system cannot handle it I understand (consider pc upgrade) but we should encourage the advancement that PMDG have started so that others will follow suit. (such as realistic bouncing wings on taxi). PMDG has done what I would consider as revolutionary simulation advancement and it is for the better of the FSX platform.

It looks excellent. I did not like the default virtual cockpit lighting from PMDG . Yours look more like the ones in the real world based on what I have seen..Thanks for sharing.
