737Andi

Hello, I'm looking for a decent tutorial on youtube explaining how to produce and deal with an engine fire. So far I was even too stupid to produce a smoking engine via the PMDG Actions menu in the CDU. Thank you! Best regards Andreas

Hello, I'm not able to catch the LOC/GS at EHRD with the Qualitywings 787 and the FSLabs A319. With the PMDG 737 NGX its working though. I have tried it with the standard P3D v4.3 scenery and the aerosoft Rotterdam X scenery. The ILS frequency that I'm using for runway 24 is 110.90 I have not updated the airac cycle on any of the planes since I bought them. But I would suppose that the airac cycle on the 787 and the A319 are newer. Nevertheless they are not able to autoland. Does someone have an idea? Thanks! Best regards Andreas

Hello, does someone know how to improve the shadow quality of the shadows that the aircraft casta on itself? The normal shadows are very blurry. Thank you! Best regards Andreas

Hello, I had the PMDG 737 installed successfully on my Win7 64Bit under Prepar3d V.4.3. Everything was working flawlessy. Since I always wanted to test Win 10 I bought a second SSD and installed Win 10 64Bit on it. I also changed my graphics Card from a GTX 1060 to RTX 2070. Then I installed the PMDG 737 under the freshly downloaded Prepar3d V4.4. On first start I was asked to enter the activation code which I successfully did. The flight was loaded and everything(!) was working absolutely fine. After approx. 30-45 seconds the plane is however stopping to react to Joystick commands (e.g. ailerons, flaps, side rudder). Other addon planes do not have this problem! Strangely on this newly set up system I also get the activation pop up each time I load the PMDG 737. So I have to enter the license key each time I want to use the PMDG 737. Hopefully someone can help me! Thank you! Best regards Andreas

Not yet. But I will do so in case that no one can help me here.

Hello, I have just installed Rex 4 Textures Direct on a freshly installed Prepar3d v4.4 and the water textures are horrible. I do notice a change in the textures (e.g. typical Rex coral water textures near TNCM) but the result is more than unsatisfying. The texture transition is blocky and not smooth and the wavyness is simply to few, although I have chosen a strong wave profile. I suppose some of my settings in Rex 4 or P3d are wrong. I'm not using any addon scenery or other addon at the moment! Back in the times of FSX i used to have such nice water animations with Rex Overdrive! Here are 2 pictures: This is how it should look like: And this is roughly how ist looking: Hopefully someone can help me :( Thanks! Best regards Andreas

Can you please sum it up for me because I dont want to go through the whole registration process including waiting time for manual approval. Thank you very much!

Hello, hopefully this is the right forum. I am currently owning Rex Skyforce 3D and ASN. I would also like to use Rex 4 Texture Direct in oder to improve runway and water textures. Will the installation of Rex 4 mess up with my existing Rex Sky Force 3D textures (e.g. clouds)? Thx! Regards Andreas

Hello, I'm running P3d v4 under win7 with alot of addons. Unfortunately although my hardware is top notch I dont get a totally smooth sim experience. The graphics settings are already reduced way too much. My thought is now to install everything new under win10 in hope to get better performance. What do you guys think? Is win10 better? My hardware: I7-8700K at 4,8Ghz, Geforce RTX 2070, 16GB Ram, Fast SSD. Thanks! Best regards Andreas

Thx...that worked:)

Hello, I noticed recently that my aircrafts (PMDG 737, FSLABS A320 and Qualitywings 787) are positioned completely wrong on all gates on all addon airports (EDDL, EDDF, EDDK, EDDM) that I'm using within Germany. I dont have any other addon airports so I cant tell if the problem is also outside of germany. Additionally I noticed that the position of the SODE jetways of these addon airports is completely wrong. They are for example located half inside the buildings. I did not have this problem before so the installation of a certain addon must have caused this. I'm using P3D v4.3 with the following addons: Just Sim EDDL Aerosoft Megaairport Frankfurt 2.0 Aerosoft Cologne-Bonn Professional Taxi2Gate EDDM ORBX Lowi FSLabs A320 Qualitywings 787 PMDG 737 NGX Active Sky Next 787 Immersion FSFX Precipitation GSX level 2 SODE 1.6.3 ORBX FTX Global Base Pack FTX Global Trees Orbx Libraries EU Germany North EU Germany South I'm assuming that my AFCAD files are corrupt. Reading a bit in other forums some people mentioned double .bgl files in combination with ORBX products and addon airports. Unfortunately I dont know how to proceed without damaging my existing installations. My current scenery cfg is here....

Hello, I have tried to catch the LOC & G/S on different runways (7L, 7R and 25L and 25R) of the Megaairport Frankfurt scenery from Aerosoft with the qualitywings 787 several times now, but I was never able to sucessfully do that. The ILS frequency should be entered correctly in the system since it is working on other airports flawlessy. I have also checked that the frequency is set by checking the NAV menu in the communications module on the center pedestal. Any idea what is wrong? Thank you! Best regards Andreas

Hello, I'm not able to use GSX and the 787 decently on several airport addons (e.g. EDDL, EDDF, EDDK,..). I'm choosing one of the HEAVY parking positions on these airports where the 787 is positioned in a very strange (and wrong?) way. My other plane addons like for example the PMDG 737 or the FSLABS A320 are positioned correctly on these gates. When I'm requested the GSX ground Services I get the error message that the parking position is too small for this aircraft? Very few HEAVY gates are working but in most cases I get this error message. Any idea what I'm doing wrong here? Thanks! Best regards Andreas

I have read the full manual (381 pages). Unfortunately I could not find an FCOM. A/P is off 1000feet above. A/T is still engaged.

Hello, flying the A320 lately I'm not 100% sure if I'm landing the 787 correctly. On the A320 I need to set back the thrust from climb detent to zero on flare. Is it obligatory to push the autothrust disengage button before pulling the thrustlevers to zero during flare with the 787? Thanks! Best regards Andreas
