Hi, I'm encountering a major issue as my 777 is totally unusable. After several fsx restart throttles still not move according to my jostick instructions. It works for all other addons except for the PMDG T7 ! what's going on ?

Hi, My 77W went also crazy tonight, flying from CDG to YUL, FL340, in mid-atlantic that big boy suddenly starts to descend slowly by himself with the AP on, MCP correction didn't solve anything. I switched AP off, but it was still impossible to control the beast, Externals ailerons plus the elevators weren't responding ! When applying aileron action, only the spoiler part (inner aileron) were visually moving but the aircraft didn't respond. Try to ajust trajectory with trim, slightly worked at first but then trim wasn't responding anymore. Only the Rudder trim's got effect on the aircraft. Finally I had to let it sink in the ocean as nothing was working. Note that the screens were frozen until view change. The control column was also frozen, same for the throttle, but went back to normal few minutes later without any reason. I hope there is a solution to avoid that very boring problem... cheers, Théo.

Hi, Order processed more than an hour Ago. I got the Same error as Tim Barker (HTTP 500 error), and I still don't have the dl link (Mail/Previous order). Order N°: 232415. Theo ALDEGUER

HI ! You were right Bryan, the problem is linked with " you are cleared to disconnect and go to handsignals " for me. I did 3 flights : -on the first I said it at the end of the taxi flow. ------------------------------------------------------------------> the <Set TO Flaps> reappeared, during taxi. -on the second i said it after engine start and before asking for flaps. -------------------------------------> it Worked. -on the third I didn't say it at all.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> it Worked too. is it possible to fix that in any futur patch ? Thanks. Théo.

Hi WAyne, How was your second flight ? Théo.

Hello, Reinstall SP1c in not needed but is highly recommanded. Reinstall SP1c let a perfectly clean .cfg file then you are pretty sure not to experience weird issues. But you are free to install FS2crew, if you ever have SP1c without reinstall. By the way you could experience some issue. so you have 2 choice : - Install FS2crew without reinstalling SP1c, it could work then you could enjoy it, or you experience weird issues, then you have to reinstall SP1c and FS2crew. Or - Backup your liveries, run SP1c installer again, run FS2crew SP1 installer, install your liveries and enjoy it. As for information it worked just fine for me without reinstalling. Hope I helped. Théo.

Hello, As far as I know (in Real Air France procedures) it's the PF that announce then disconnect the AT and AP when he requires. The AP/AT command available in FS2Crew are : -"Select Autothrottle Off" or "ON" -"Select Autopilot Off" -/-> "Select Command A/B" As for the Alarm i don't think there is an available command for FO to switch off the alarm. I tried to ask twice "Select Autopilot Off" but it didn't switch the alarm off. What i can sugest you as you've a switch is to try to push twice on your switch. The first should disconnect AP the second should quiet the alarm. Hope it could Helps, Théo.

Hi, For this one and if i'm right, First Officer should tell you he is ready for the descend checklist if you played or runned the Approach Briefing. Did You ? Here, again if i'm still right, the FO should Turn Off Autobrake And gear levers when you ask for "flaps up" and not when you ask for the checklist. HS should not be pressed if you don't want sound in your headset anymore. Again i might be wrong on something. Hope this few things could help you, if not, Bryan will. Théo

Hi, I have the same problem. I'm waiting for <set flaps> mode after Push and start, when ready I ask 'Flaps5' then I'm waiting for the FO to tells he is ready for the C/L to ask for it. And happens just like Niklas described it, and even sometimes the FO start the checklist and at the "3rd or 4th" item it stop answering as the mode is back to <set Flaps>... I'm just adding some few commands depending of the flight, and that could be the issue's cause maybe : - I always use AES - I ask for "select taxi light on" at differents moments (during P/B, before ask for flaps, just before start the taxi...) - I call the ground crew for "disconnect and go to hand signal" also at different moment : (before set flaps, before the taxi checklist, and at the end of the before taxi checklist...) I know i'm not missing somthing in the procedure as I did at least 30 flights with the pre SP1 version and it worked perfectly. Thanks for your Help. Théo.

I of course didn't want to get rid of light sensor, just the white boxe. Waiting for SP2 to see if they found how to fix this. Thanks

thanks for your fast reply, that's a bad news... I'm flying the ngx since it's out, never noticed it before until a week ago. I don't know how i couldn't have noticed it before as it's so white during night. It's look like something as changed...... aw... wait... yes something has changed, as I am running FS2crew i start playing in 2D instead of VC, could this incresase this effect ? but anyway if you say it's normal and that there are no ways to definitly hide it... i can just hope for a solution to be found with SP2. last question if you can help, you can notice that in my 2D view, i can only see ground do you know how to change that ? I never flight in 2D but i think this is not normal... Thanks you for your answers ! Théo.

Good day, in the upper left of my screen, there is a white box. I can make it bigger then detach it out of the window and this "box" 's windows is called "light sensor". it's very boring escpecially during night flight. It's not possible to close this window. What is this ? I only get that with PMDG NGX. I'm running SP1C. here are illustrations : Please Help me fixing that... Theo.

Good day to all, Have you planned a kind of PNF mode in the future (for lazy days :Yawn: ) ? ok i know i could be weird in fs... but it could be great too, if once we've lined up on the runway, the FO could set the TO power and keep the centerline until we call "rotate" then he pull the yoke to 15°, following the FD and call for "Command B". Is this technically posible or may I call that a dream ? P.S : I'm not asking for the landing because : I DO LANDING :Loser:. More seriously, is that possible ? thank you !

Good evening, Have you tried to set HS "on" in the main panel ? It's the fourth button after "Voice" "DSP" "HM". Theo

Hi, Bryan is a very glade man (can't count how much time i've seen "glad" in his posts lol). (kidding) He is right to be glade, he provides us wonderful softwares and an impressive support. Thank you
