I've purchased the 777 two days ago and am still unable to activate it. I have sent a ticket to PMDG to which they replied that it was a firewall issue having to do with port 8888. Since then, I have uninstalled mcafee from my computer, tried the port forwarding for my router, taken my tower to a friends house and tried to figure it out in windows firewall, all without any success. I have sent a reply back to PMDG stating I have done all this but havent' received a reply thus far. Anybody have any suggestions for me? Maybe I'm doing the port forwarding or something wrong, but I've googled it to death. Frustrated. should also state I have called my ISP and they state that they have nothing to do with blocking ports or anything like that and just directed me to do a port forwarding.

I know some users experienced an issue with activating their 777. I am also getting the message "unable to connect to activation server". I've tried just about everything, forwarding the port 8888, taking my tower to a friends house and using his internet, even uninstalling my antivirus, turning off windows firewall. Anyone have any suggestions about how I could get around this. I've already sent a ticket to PMDG and received a response telling to try the above. I've since sent them back a reply stating I have tried all that with no luck. I am not totally sure I am forwarding or opening port 8888 properly. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have just purchased the 777 and I am getting the message "unable to connect to activation server". I know through searching the forum that a few people have had the same issue and resolved it, but never said how. I have submitted a ticket and received a canned response about forwarding port 8888 and checking to make sure that the firewall is allowing the activation server through and I have tried them, to the best of my ability as I am not very computer literate when it comes to that stuff. Just hoping someone who knows a bit more could help me or someone who had this issue could tell me how to resolve it. Thanks.

I believe FSUIPC would be your best bet when calibrating your controls. You will need to have the registered version of FSUIPC to do this. I've also tried using the sensitivity settings within FSX and I either have a result like yours or my yoke goes full left or right, but the NGX's doesn't.

I did'nt think there was anyone else doing it. I knew southwest used them, but also noticed in later pictures and videos that they have moved on from that. I know the reasoning behind using the EFIS/MAP setup and all, but it sure did seem quite "busy", especially the engine display compared to the standard PFD/ND.

Anyone know off by hand any airlines that are currently using the Split PFD/ND displays? I only know of United right now. I'm looking to do more flights with this setup and would like to keep it realistic if possible. Thanks in advance for any input.

I've been really looking forward to someone creating an Enerjet -700. Hopefully this is something you could do? Still half new to the forum and unsure how to post pictures without linking to websites that I'm not supposed to.

firewall them, fly it like you stole it.

yeah, I figured I was looking too far into the RW thing with that one. These little things seem to just be pilot preference.

I'm finding that when flying into larger centers, whenever I increase the range on my MFD, my screen becomes nothing but a blue shade of airports and I get an "excess data" message. Is there a way to set the aircraft to only show certain airports ie. by runway length, etc. If not, how do they do they resolve this in real world? Do they just turn off the ARPT view or keep range low? Just wondering. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply Robert. In no way did I mean to insult PMDG or to imply that you were falling behind other developers in anyway. I always felt that with each new product you deliver, you once again set a new bar for FSX development. Since I do think your at the top of the FSX market, my OP was just meant to ask what you guys thought of it, and not a "Why aren't you doing it" kind of thing. Once again, I apologize if anyone at PMDG took any offence to it. Thanks guys

Wasn't sure if Majestic were the first to do this or not, so I just said "releases" to cover any other product that may have done it.

This is mainly directed at Ryan, Robert, etc, but welcome all to chime in with opinions. Without naming names, I was wondering what PMDGs stance was on developing products that include an independent FDE (flight dynamics engine) like in other recent releases. I, personally, have come to like it, but just wondering if PMDG have any plans to look at this in future developments. Thanks. Just seen there was another post about this already, should have looked before posting, my apologies.

Hey all, in my search for the Westjet RNP approach charts, I came across a great website that you can use to view/download charts. The site is fltplan.com and it is completely free. It is a real world flight planning website and it contains all charts for US/Canada. All charts are current and kept current. The charts are from the FAA and NavCanada without the "NOT FOR REAL WORLD USE" message on them. The site does require that you register a username and password, but does not require an email address. **HINT** It is a 3 step registration, however, you can skip steps 2 and 3 which will ask for personal information and aircraft data respectively and have instant access to the site. Once in the site, use the menu on the left and look for "Charts and Maps" and away you go. If you are looking for the the Westjet RNP approaches, you will find them under "Restricted Canada Air Pilot Charts" at the bottom of the chart listing for a given airport, ie. CYLW Just wanted to pass this along for anyone that was interested. Just realized that this was probably better suited for the General Forum. My apologies.

Just a video illusion was the last thing I would have thought it was. Learn something everyday. Thanks.

Hi all, tried googling this with no success, after watching numerous real world 737 videos (not only 737's do this) I've noticed, particularly on takeoff and landing that the LCDS tend to be flashing as if shorting out. I was wondering if anyone knew the cause or reason for this. Just curious is all.

Hey Guys and Gals. Really looking to the PMDG community for some help as I know PMDG users are some of most knowledgable people on fsx and its inner workings. I have just bought a new rig (specs in signature) and I am really struggling to get fsx to run nice and smooth with decent graphics, as I know this machine is capable of. In no way do I expect it to run everything maxed out and 30+ FPS, but I do feel I could get alot out of it with the right settings and configurations. I was hoping someone could help me out, I am willing to do a fresh install of fsx and my addons (which are 95% aircraft, not a lot of addon scenery other than GEX and UTX) and start from scratch, I am really frustrated since I got this machine and am tired of googling and reading useless (most anyways) tweaks. Any help is greatly appreciated and Thank you in advance.

Here's how I do it.... flightaware.com and go under aviation photos and search for whatever airline you are looking for and in your results it will give the aircraft registration number as a link and just click on that and there you have it. Some airlines, though, have poor coverage in this area.... Westjet is one of them. Hope this helps

Hey Everyone. As you can see in my signature, I have a fairly decent system. Now I know FSX will only use so much of this and all that, but I am having an issue with blurry textures when outside the aircraft (and sometimes in VC as well. I figured that with the system I had, I could at the very least have sharp textures. I've tried different tweaks including *******' tool. I also included my FSX.cfg so maybe someone could have a look at it to make some recommendations.

Thanks for the quick reply gents. I just did'nt know if it had anything to do with center of gravity or handling of the aircraft to keep some weight in there. Thanks again.

Just a quick question about the center fuel tanks. I've watched on many real 737 videos that the center tank will have fuel in it while the centre pump switch is off. Are you not supposed to have your center tanks empty or are these just special circumstances? I often load my NGX with the 1/3 setting which leaves center tanks empty and I can't imagine PMDG would do that if it is not realistic. Anybody know what the "science" is behind having fuel in the tanks, but no pump switch on?

submitting a support ticket is the fastest way to reach the team and get your issue resolved. It is "usually" resolved within a couple hours or sooner.

I have already solved my issue by using the [bufferPools] Poolsize=0 tweak. Now I'm getting the 30fps that i've limited it to at any airport and areas with the NGX. Default airports and scenery of course. Thanks to all for the help.

i did apply *******' tweak, I will try the water setting. I'm finding that now it is only temporary. Frames will go back and forth from 30 to around 5 or 6, and then settle back at around 30 (limited to 30) after about a minute or so, and like I said, only in outside view. The only add-ons I'm running are GEX and AS2012.

I know, I was one of those naive people who thought "I take care of my computer and have anti-virus, nothing bad will happen", Then it did. Lesson Learned. One more question for you guys, I've heard that you can set FSX to use so many cores, I know that it can't use all six of mine, but how can I check to see that its using its maximum?
