Uh oh, FS9 issue....

Postby stevehookem » Sat Jul 25, 2009 11:03 am

Is my amazing GoFlight MCP-Pro now a BRICK? I cannot use it with the PMDG 737/747 for FS9? aaahhhh, I spend 99% of my flying time in these two planes.

Any suggestions?

John, what plane do you use for your cockpit?

John is away on vacation. ;)

He uses the Bae 146-200 as the basis for his simpit. ;)

Thanks Shane. I emailed you too. I'm having a hard time getting things to work.

To my knowledge the 747 Queen of the Skies utilizes proprietary stuff for a lot of its systems modeling.  That all operates "outside" the normal FS2004 FSUIPC accessable offsets and such.  I do not think that the MCP will work with it in the normal fashion.  You might have to use something like GoflightKeys to SORT of make it work.

The lack of openness to the PMDG systems is one BIG drawback to their use in simpits.

best,

It's a shame too because the realism in the PMDG is fantastic.

What 737 model do most use for their home cockpits based on the 737NG? What about the 747?
