Random Failures
I have had a few failures thus far.1) Cockpit pressurization issue (twice)2) Hydraulic failure and engine 2 failureAll random.

What do YOU want to see in SP2?
Honestly, NOTHING. I think its great as is.....

Interesting Failure
Interesting, while descending into KSEA I experienced a hydraulic failure and a loss of all power in engine 2. I was at about 3000 feet , I disengaged autopilot and auto throttle as I was losing airspeed. I applied appropriate throttle and landed safely at KSEA. It was a "routine" failure as I had not set any failures in the FMC. It made things rather interesting as I was flying "low and slow".

What aircraft do we all wish PMDG would make?

What a beautiful airplane.
I completed two short hops earlier today (KPHL to KLGA and KLGA to KAID). The NGX is simply amazing ! The more I fly it the more that I learn and uncover in this amazing simulation. The workload can be a bit high at times but that makes it even more interesting to me. The FMC is fabulous and all the systems work so well togetherI want to thank Robert and Ryan for something I just enjoy so much.Also, once I applied Bojates tweaks I have had one graphics snafu in 17 flights.
-
try the lower res options! smmmoooothhhheeeerrr
Uh, no. I want more detail and I'm running high res with all sliders to right.
-
Skeleton graphic tail section for a few seconds..
IT Happens to me from time to time for about a half second, then all is well. No biggie considering how hard we are pushing our machines with this thing. I mean I have all my sliders to the right except water and I am running VERY DENSE on the right hand sliders. Not bad I would say.
-
How many have zero problems?
Since I tweaked my system per Roberts suggestions, and then applied Bojates tweaks, I have had no problems. After SP1 its running great. Yesterday was a 7.8 hour flight from Cozumel to BGSF and today an 8 hour flight from BGSF to LTAZ. No problems at all.I have all sliders to right except water (1X) and Autogen and other setting on VERY DENSE. Great FPS and no hiccups whatsoever

Can you please tell me how I can find the Panel.cfg file (is it part of my FSX.cfg ??)

Two Flights Two Freezes
No freezes yet, on second flight. Since Bojates tweaks I have had tremendous success.John S

Issues After SP1
First flight flawless, on second leg to KPHX as we speak. I have all sliders on left to max and Autogen DENSE, the other (I forget) to VERY DENSE.Great fps......looking real good so far.John S

Issues After SP1
I am in midst of first flight from MWCB-MMCZ. Smooth as glass so far. Seems FPS are a bit better. Will report back after landing.John S

Still having FMC freezes after sp1
I have set everything up before taking off. That said, I have been "light" on the FMC especially during approach and I have had 0 ctd's or freezes (This is all pre SP1). Seems that if I make multiple adjustments (waypoint changes, changing runways etc....) especially during descent, I would get the freezes. Suffice it to say, I stopped doing that.

After SP1 install
I won't have to download product again as I have it in a PMDG file. I will tackle this on Monday and make all appropriate changes.Hey, can I just reload the liveries from the file on my computer (of course to the new livery manager) ???John S
