sympilot

Just did a flight testing out the iFly from KSAN-KPDX. Flight was smooth until landing and taxing to the gate. The sound starts cutting out and then CTD. When the sound starts cutting then I know the sim will CTD. Pretty frustrating

Are you able to use the 73's in 2024?

2024 is becoming my "Airbus" sim platform. PMDG 737's no longer work in the SU3 Beta and the Max simply is not very good along with being a stutter fest. I know PMDG 7xx is not yet supported in 2024 but they did work for me in SU1, and SU2 Beta.

I have both sims on my machine with an I7-12700, 64GB Ram, and a 4090. I like 2020 for all the addons I bought for it over the years the main that still bothers me about it is scenery popping/draw distance, and load times (probably because of all the addons I have). I do have to say that 2024 to my eyes has much improved scenery and no popping. I do however have issues with random CTD (SU2 Beta). I have purchased hardware addons from Winwing that for me, makes me stick with the PMDG 73's in 2020 and Fenix in 2024 as I almost exclusively fly tubeliners. You may say better scenery doesn't make a difference at 30K feet. You're right. However, it does make a difference on takeoff and approach/landing. Just my 2 cents

I emailed them about that exact thing. I definitely think there is a market for it

Price just went up. I'm thinking due to this tariff nonsense

I have both BATC as well as a sub to SayIntentions. I do like the traffic injection with BATC but do not like that the gates can't connect to AI so, I generally use SI more

Actually now I have had 3 decent flights but again, cannot do a turn (back to back)

I still have 2020 installed alongside 2024 I just prefer the visuals in 2024 over 2020 even though 2020 is much more polished

Because I can

PMDG looks just as good in 2024 as it does in 2020. I cannot get the included MAX to work correctly at all in 2024. IMHO it needs a complete rework

SI switches it automatically when receiving clearance

So I was able to more or less complete an entire flight with the PMDG 738 in 2024! Route was KSEA - KLAS using Live Weather, Say Intentions, and kind of GSX Pro. I spawned on the runway then used GSX to "warp" to the gate, connected ground power and gate, turned off engines, loaded a Simbrief FP (This took restarting a few times), and away I went. When trying to do the turn back into Seattle, trim and engine indications broke again but, I did manage one flight. For me the Max that came with the sim is just not good. I have tried for hours to complete a flight in it but to no avail and I just wanted a Boeing to fly. So, the PMDG does work, but YMMV. I am using SU1 Beta though.

How would I access the Beta forum?

I tried it a few time in 2024 SU1 but the parking brakes stop working and the engine indicators freeze.
