Beautiful!

I climbed out of there in the PMDG 777 a couple of days ago with weather in the area. Very cool. And the new airport is wonderful!! Great work gang!

I got the CS757 version some time ago and tried to fly it. The flight dynamics seem wrong, but the FMC bugs were the killer for me. Not being used anymore. Waiting for someone to produce a good model.

Not a controlled attempt at a landing. Icing? They had been holding for a long time. And if they were based in Dubai. Guess we will see.

I had this when using Fiber Accelerator. Reduced the frame rates and it went away. So I think they are right. Lower frames or changing the Fiber frame faction would be where I would start.

If you go into msconfig and have the system do a Selective Startup and have it start without the startup items loading. Helped a lot for me.

Does it still crash after a clean boot? I had a similar problem after upgrading to Windows 7 64 bit and found that if I open it with a clean boot it works fine. Not sure about Windows 10. Also, kudos to the people who put together the Avsim CTD guide. Helpful ideas.

I used these settings in FSX DX10. They work great for me too. A keeper for sure. Thanks!

Dunno, but I just landed at Dulles with all AI traffic on and taxied to the gate w/o an OOM crash in the PMDG 777-200. Massive improvement with this patch. Wow!!!

Agree on the stall. Dropped off on the left wing. Don't think that was intentional. Would have been better if he dumped the nose and went for the river. Still, remarkable and delighted that there were survivors.

Yep. Still my favorite plane.

I have been using System Mechanic for many years on XP and Windows 7. I like it a lot. BUT I do still have to watch my virtual address space. Like someone said here, different issue.

Not only that, but rudeness does NOT promote our hobby to people newer to it than we are. And we ALL have an interest in keeping the hobby alive and well I believe. I dunno how Fiber Accelerator works in P3D but in FSX it works great unless you have a very high end system, there from what I can tell results are mixed.

Andd...we hope no one from the FAA is monitoring this thread....lol. I usually fly the heavy tin but recently going back to the Flight 1 ATR-72 routes for Azul Airlines in South America. Some of those airports in SA are VERY challenging.

Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for the tip. And it sounds like the QW's one is the same. So there is no really good model for the 757 right now, huh?

Yep, I use DX 10 also. Also got Fiber Accelerator, which helped a lot, And honestly, if I start with the PMDG 777 on the runway and take off right away I can do it. I can also land in NYC but forget taxing to the gate. And I AM running 32 bit soooo...

I have a mid range i5, and the PMDG 777 is right at the top of my computer's abilities. Which means I will prob hesitate to pick up any new PMDG titles. My next aircraft acquistions will prob be a 767 (the level D) and maybe a 757(CS)? I love PMDG's stuff and fly using it regularly, but am unwilling to lay out the cash for the hardware required to run it.

Oh, I do, I do.

Every once in a while in this hobby I have "Duh!" moments. I have a mid-range system. I suddently realized yesterday that if I have a flight ending or originating from the NYC area that I should use the MD-11 (when possible) as the aircraft even if the real life flight uses a 777. The MD-11 has FAR lower VAS usage and is more frame rate friendly and I have no problem flying out of the NYC area with it. I do with the 777. A simple substitution fills the bill.

One thing I think is true is that those of you with very high end systems may not benefit from this program much. You can run FSX at will. No "throttling" required.

Some airlines order just got delayed.

Second "wow" event. Was getting ready to take off from DD KEWR in the iFly 737-800. Watched the free VAS going away. Started FA an it increased to 328000. I really think I'm going to like this program. One thing I did notice is that, at least in the NYC area, you don't get the big boost in FPS you do elsewhere. Think it's all the urban area.

Flew out of Pudong yesterday in the PMDG 777 with low ceilings and embedded thunderstorms everywhere...didn't break out until around 20000 feet. I was surprised to see the frame rates were good at 15-20 fps. When I cleared the tops I was at 700000 free VAS. Flew all the way to Memphis and LANDED w/o having to restart to free up VAS. This was new for me. Wow. Nice work guys. I like!
