PMDG MD11 for FSX: VC Panel Lighting Demo

[FlightSimGuy9782]

I like their 747-400X but PMDG addon aircraft is over priced! The 747 is $51 and it only comes with 6 models of the 747.

[loch70]

can u get pmdg 737-800?

[kurwayork]

yes

[TokiThor]

Not yet for FSX

[volcom1722]

whats the fps impact? :)

[Raggioazzura]

Probably a gigantic hit... seeing as they're charging $75 for this thing... I LIKE the MD-11, but i'm not sure if i like it that much....

[Paradyski]

@Raggioazzura this is really good aircraft m8. About 80% switches work and if u don't know how to use FMC u cannot fly this wonderful machine. I really like it

[Raggioazzura]

@Paradyski oh, i don't know about that. I barely know how to use the FMC and im still flying (yeah, i bought it)

[betterdenu452]

not bad

[BluesMan4ty5]

@volcom1722 huge, get a decent CPU.

[novaeagle7]

Once you start free flight with the md-11, do the panels show automatically or are the panels blank?

[18vallancel]

They show automatically. If not, it's probably because the product wasn't activated successfully.

[fsxfun]

My apologies, then.

[au1357924680]

How do you move so fluently through the VC? Is there a program for FSX?

[Cosmics]

Tracker IR...Google it

[fsxfun]

In addition to TrackIR, you can hold down the Spacebar while moving your mouse. TrackIR is so much easier, though.

[au1357924680]

yes, I know that, I was wondering how he "MOVED" not looked so fluently.

[RStickMan22]

Well the space bar dose not give you 6 degrees of motion and here you can see he was putting his head closer to the gauges witch space bar can't do.

[fsxfun]

You're correct that it doesn't give you the motion TrackIR can - but to move forward and back in the VC using the spacebar, you just roll the scroll wheel on your mouse, if you have one.

I don't know if that's what you're even talking about.

[gordilloedwin]

...this is great.. but i hope is not too expensive :(

[mysticalpotato86]

great u can flip virtual switches and twiddle virtual nobs. I could never understand the draw of piloting a dashboard.

[Patrickisreallygreat]

its great practice

[patrickjambzlilpj]

PMDG laggs but its great :D

[Agentcapture]

What is your computer config. ?

[patrickjambzlilpj]

Pentium D 3.00GHZ

Nvida 8500GT 512MB

120GB HDD dont know the brand

1GB ram

[BlackLogicAirlines]

Not so good! That´s why it lags

[kevinthomsons]

It depends on the computer we use and the software that records the video.

[ragazzipazzi]

che merda di video e questo

[Exposianature]

Would have been a bit more useful to have a bit of Zoom on that vid.

[gerrarditto4u]

when we will se PMDG A380??please

[PhilipDK5800]

Hopefully never.

[gerrarditto4u]

why not. i like this idea.:)

[PhilipDK5800]

Theres just too much A380 hype atm. I know PMDG equqlas awesome quality. But theres just so many other aircrafts to create instead.

Like the 777-300 :D

[gerrarditto4u]

if PMDG will start to work on a380, thats will prove something.

[trechan]

there are too many A380s that are good the way they are. a 777 I think would be much better because Wilco did a crap job and basicaly is selling what would be considered freeware and PSS well, Pss is sorta old now and I think a newwer more enhanced version would be wanted

[kevinthomsons]

You got to try the Project open sky 777. look for some videos on youtube. You will be amazed to see the photorealistic Virtual cockpit they made!! Its free so it might have some minor negative points. And I'm sure PMDG can come up with something like/better than that.

[jazzdreamer]

Anyone plays it right now? I just bought my copy today but for some reason I just can't get the same lighting effect as demonstrated in this video, like the very nice panel label illumination. Anyone has the same problem?

[EXAir113]

RELEASED!

[MacExpert]

10 mins.

[atav]

35 minutes!!!

[yopapa60]

2 more weeks i think

[boeingace1618]

sorry guys i'm new to this "beta" termonology. what does it mean when they say they are in final beta?

[coolpick87]

It means that they are testing it, to make sure there is no bugs before it goes on sale. I think its just a couple of weeks before its out.

[VCopckit]

where did you get the virtual copckit :P

??????

[mostonbrook9]

how do you get the cockpit to light up so you can see all the buttons

[DKF22]

omg how much are there planes? from PMDG?

[icecreamman93]

It will probably be about $80.

[fsxTakasito]

Wow, seriously looks great!

[janadal86]

Will the two PMDG MD11 versions be sold seperatly? Or can we buy a single version that supports FSx or FS9? Like you can install the PMDG 737 in FS2002 and FS2004.

I hope it will, because my current rig doesn't run FSx very well.

[Ganjamule]

This has been 3 years or so in development right? I had the PMDG 747 and that was/still is just amazing if this is half as good it will be worth every penny.

[jordanbd4]

are they using that VX920 thing in this video?

[areocrazy]

WOW! I LOVE YOU GUYS!

[andrejcheck]

PMDG MD-11... We're waiting for you anxiously!! :D

[bodylover1]

What a program u used for turn soft in the cockpit? nice video!

[icecreamman93]

are you taking about the movement? If so I think there using Track IR, which is hardware not software.

[ArubianAviator09]

When will it be released for FS2004?!?!?!

[PilotOfNorway91]

It will never. What a shame. Thumbs down :(

[ArubianAviator09]

Are you sure? Some people say it will come out in september and some say it will come out in 2009:(!

[PilotOfNorway91]

As of now, there are no intentions, but PMDG are tricking (bad word, censored). They never tell anything before it's out there. xD

[NZ255]

On there site it say for FS9.1 and FSX!

[PilotOfNorway91]

I was outdated...when they released it for FSX, I remembered (I think, THINK) they scratched the idea for FS9(.1). But it's coming alright.

[navymmw]

it will be made for FS9 so dont worry. It may just come out later then the FSX model.

[icecreamman93]

There in final beta testing...should be soon...hopefully

[rcosis]

Very nice! I´m looking forward the release!!!

[Skiiwa]

I can not wait for this!!!!!!!!!

[BioBestio]

PMDG never wrong!!!Another awesom aircraft! If this is look like 747 may I'll buy it ;)

[BigBearVids]

What in the world does this video show ?

I can't tell.

[PowerVolumePhones]

@BigBearVids:

>>>VC Panel Lighting Demo

[Aaron1701NX]

hmm i had no idea that pmdg made an md-11... my model is from simmer's sky, but i'll gladly upgrade when the pmdg model is out.

[thefsxflyer]

This is for FSX and it is not out yet

[Aaron1701NX]

i know that. i read the description before i left my first comment

[thefsxflyer]

oh, I do that sometimes

[Aaron1701NX]

no problem :) can't wait to fly this new aircraft of theirs though. if it's anything like CLS's A342 and A343 models, it should be very good indeed

[arnaage]

It's nothing like CLS modelss. CLS models are unrealistic and boring compared to PMDG. :)

[Aaron1701NX]

haha PMDG's exterior models are a bit flawed if you ask me. especially when compared to Project Opensky's models. I just got my PMDG 747 panel hooked up to my Opensky 744 V4. i just have to figure out how to activate some of the gauges and i'm done

[Ganjamule]

I hope that works out for you. I have never studied the 747 by PMDG. Why would you?

[Aaron1701NX]

because it's mine to study. why would that be any of your concern?

[Aaron1701NX]

all right then.

[fuckingdebutants]

Aaron you are such a noob... why buy such a complex simulation and then try to hook it up to a posky model. if you wanna jerk of to a 747 go sit outside Heathrow airport

[Aaron1701NX]

right. you call me the noob and you're the one fighting with your keyboard. anyone who displays such hypocrisy is clearly either a child or an idiot. anyway pmdg did an excellent job with the VC and flight dynamics, i've never had a problem with those. a posky plane was the first addon i ever had, so in addition to donating money to its designers, it's a show of loyalty. i'll not be coming back to this comment board so don't bother replying to this or any of my other comments.

[Rodnoneous45aylmore]

read the requirements on site, fs2004 version also coming

[thefsxflyer]

oh really. I think this was originally a FSX only plane

[rohitmbhatia]

Why do u do everything with your mouse?? just press L and all the lights are ON!

BTW...nice video

[eljojo123321]

They are showing of the new lighting system! Getting it as real as it gets, but if you don't get that just press the "Dome Light" button when this baby is released, allthough by that time I hope you understand why they didn't just press L ;)!

[CaptIsaak]

Because it's more like a hand in FS than a Keyboard. I use it because it's more realistic.

[rohitmbhatia]

ok! =)

[batmeins]

also...L turns EVERY light on which is quite annoying, as you only need the landing lights and strobe lights when taking off from the runway:)

[extremes46]

OMG!!!

This is a awesome video!!

where can i get this plane from??

Is This for Flight Simulator X!!??

[thefsxflyer]

Not out yet. This is for FSX only!! I dont know when it will be out but soon!

[Pazzie33]

One word.. WOW! I hope she comes out quick cause i dont want to wait any longer!!

[flyhalf2006]

Forget the lights! Show us the how the throttle works :-)

[eljojo123321]

Nice vid there PMDG, come show us some more!

[tonneyspace]

Yeah

[773ER14]

Nice to see you have finally bothered to show up something.

[Joshoc]

not to shabby!! :)
