Slightly disappointed about the proposed pricing for PMDG products for P3D. €60 was a lot of money for me to fork out last September/October for the 777X and you're suggesting a price increase and I'm not going to be able to afford it, not to mention the buying of P3D as well which costs a fortune. :( I understand that you have to pay the bill to get licensing for it but to me, I can't justify paying another possible €80/90 for the same product but on a different platform

So you need to deactivate your 777 licence before changing the parts? I didn't know that and I have my new parts on its way to my house. Thanks for the heads up!

I think I read somewhere that Ti GPUs doesn't work well with PMDG or FSX. Maybe I misread it or someone could clarify it. Have you tweaked the hell out of the fsx.cfg? Did you use ******* 'Bojote' Altuve's guide?

Folks, remember the 747 v2.0 was in development long before the 777 was released, early 2013 iirc so we could be looking at the release by the end of the year or early 2015.

So I bought a nice motherboard bundle which consists of i5 4670K overclocked to 4.2Ghz, ReFlex Asus Z87, 8GB of RAM at 1600mhz and Alphenfohn Brocken CPU cooler. I'm upgrading from a FX-6200 @3.6 GHz and Gigabyte 970A with 4GB of RAM on stock cooler. Would this improve the framerates noticeably for FSX, PMDG 777/NGX, all FSDreamteam sceneries, UK2000, ORBX landclass scenery, REX and ASN? I know it's a lot of add-ons but I always disable the sceneries that I don't require if I'm flying into that airport or flying over that area. I would also be configuring the hell out of my fsx.cfg file without a doubt. What are your opinions about it?

Nice update there bud, looking forward to the SP1. Unfortunately, I won't be able to afford the 300ER pack as I've to save for college :( But will be saving for the new 747X and maybe -200 series. 300ER doesn't cut it for me at the moment

It could be due to day light saving time that we have in Ireland and UK

Answer these questions to yourself, Do you want to fly up to 7+ hours at a time? Do you enjoy flying into massive airports in a heavy jet? Are you looking for a new challenge and willing to learn? If the answers are yes to all, buy the 777. Otherwise stick with the NGX and maybe buy the 777 another time

I am probably a bit too fast now. Leading the crowd south of Greenland right now

It will typically be released once all of the service packs have been released and you could be talking 6 months. I wouldn't expect it anytime soon.

They also said that the 777 would come out in late June....

If anyone was patient and sensible, they would've waited till the next morning and purchase the add-on and download it within your expectations like I did. Everything was as smooth as you could possibly need when ordering something. Now I've followed the tutorial part of the package and flew the Male-Dubai flight. I must say, for a long time user of B744, I didn't find it at all difficult to the new surroundings. The FMC process was fairly straightforward as so was the handling of her taxiing and flying although I did find it difficult landing her as I'm used to being really high up in the 744 and the 777 cockpit is lower. That can be rectified soon once I get more experience done. My score of the 777? 10000/10. It really has exceeded everyone's expectations and I'm sure it did to the staff team too. I want to thank everyone who has contributed to the successful launch of the 777 and the development too. It is truly a fantastic product to own and I'm sure everyone will at some stage buy it whether it'll be tomorrow or next year, they are bound to be blown out of their minds. Thanks all! Jamie

It's not nonsense if I've read others post it in reply to others multiple times in topics like these. Don't it against me.

It will most likely never going to happen. PMDG have close relations with Boeing and it would be dangerous if they were to sought information from Airbus, it would mean Boeing would refuse to give them any more information if PMDG were to develop another aircraft.

Great idea to get everyone motivated to fly the event and to learn the basics of their new aircraft in the hanger! Booked a 09:06z departure out of Memphis so I'll see everyone there!
