This is why/maybe I earn in this forum my bad reputation ,I being flying this Best of the best with a poor system ,I saw this thread and I just couldn't keep my mouth shut..sorry! but the dude have a better machine than mine and all the reply claim that IT WON'T WORK ,well I said IT SHOULD!

and as a former bad designer ,for the love of God this is a FSX-SDK made aircraft and when the proper textures format (DDS) ANY AIRPLANE WILL RUN VERY WELL,
I being learning and enjoying this wonder for two weeks and I don't see a frame killers as some of you claim

Why Do I care so Much ? you may ask
Because I finally found something very good Yes Is expensive but It worth it every penny ,in fact ,Now I'm back in FSX

I have a lower Video card ,lower CPU ,less RAM (all readably in my specs below and in the video..
I did this quickie video, to demonstrate that At least to me in WinXpSp2 Runs well as almost if it where the default 747 of the game ..

Now I being follow all this procedure to mak a start Cold & Dark and I still have some problems to get the IRS using the

Of course it all depends on your FSX settings, and Vista uses more resources than XP.
Might be a wild shot, but do you have to enter your latitude and longitude into the FMC?
Glad you're enjoying it 

[Alejandro Rhodes]

I really would appreciate if anyone could help me with this ,as I already said I follow step by step this guy tutorial

But I can't make the compass screen moves or work in fact it remains in this position



Yes the airport is SVVA the coordinates are good ,I don't know what's going on  ,by starting the Airplane it works fine ,but not Cold & dark start ..

Hmm, did you align the INS?

And try a reinstall, and it doesn't work, go on the PMDG forums, they're usually very professional and helpful.

I had no idea that everything take time, the APU to powering the aircraft the bleeding the FMC,pumps

Lets face it, there is not reason to wait that long in a simulator.

Of course it works... but how?
Do you have any AI? Are most of your sliders to the right?

[Alejandro Rhodes]

Half ..maybe more, But that doesn't matter to me Tomaz ,FSX Brought issues that even SP1 and SP2 never fix ,still its more realistic than FS9 ,and as you can see in the video (without frames caused by Frap recording software) It runs decently to me ,Enough to Do its work Flying ,training , learning ,enjoy, prepare to make your flight plan ,Learn VOR , TCAS ,ILS aproach And See!! I already learn how to start a Boeing 747-400 which maybe I will never see a real one ,this is the closest thing I can get near a 747

, this isn't about to Pull to the top all the sliders, to me is to enjoy a simulation ,in the other post Every One claim that PMDG 747 wouldn't never run in a machine superior than mine ,I said It runs great in my lower pc ,and I'm about to make a flight to Miami in IFR ....again 8-)..
Is just my opinion
