#HOW DO I INSTALL PMDG 777 SP1C UPDATE#
This update process has accelerated of late, and we found a way to de-conflict the developer time from the upcoming 747-400 release- and this caused the process to leap forward rather quickly.Īs of this moment, it is planned to release an FSX/FSX:SE dual compatible update to the NGX that will include (typically) a pretty significant update across the board in terms of functionality and enhancements. The PMDG 737NGX and the PMDG 737-600/700 Expansion have been getting some low rate work behind the scenes in order to move some updates from the 777 development cycle back into the NGX product line. We have been a bit coy in providing information on the plans to update the NGX product line in order to add compatibility with P3D- so tonight I will add a bit more detail for you. PMDG 737NGX product line updates for FSX, FSX:S/E and Prepar3d: This will clear us to release this product to P3D users once our beta team has signed off that the package is ready. We are awaiting final approval from Boeing for this release, and we anticipate that we shall receive it within days. This weekend officially opens the pre-release testing process for our first release to the Lockheed Martin Prepar3d simulation platform. The PMDG 737NGX product line has some important information for FSX and FSX:SE users, but it is a bit further down- so please keep reading. We anticipate this process taking a two days, with another couple of days tacked on for functionality testing. Next up, we will be completing conversion of the PMDG BAe JS4100 to make it compatible with FSX and FSX:SE. There is no "patch" installer for either the PMDG 777-200LR/F or the PMDG 777-300ER.
#HOW DO I INSTALL PMDG 777 SP1C DOWNLOAD#
This time, because of the changes we had to make to our installation process in order to account for FSX:SE- you will need to download the entire installer, fresh from our system. Now here is where there is a change you should pay attention to! In the past we have created update installers that were around 130MB or so- and you simply downloaded these in order to update your installation. If you wish to use the 777s in FSX:SE, then you will need this update. If you are only running FSX- then this update isn't necessary for you. (We moved TCAS to make it internal, we changed some internal handling in order to make the 777 functional with FSX:SE- and a bit of other cleanup.) I want to be absolutely clear that SP1d and SP1c are functionally identical, except for some structural changes that will not impact your use of the software. In the process of building this update, we have updated the 777s to version, which we are calling SP1d. as some would no doubt want: Both platforms at the same time. Given that nobody ever predicted we would have two versions of FSX at the same time- this process required a rather significant overhaul of our installation process, and the PMDG Operations Center in order to make it capable of gracefully handling either FSX, FSX:SE- or. Tonight we have released updates to both of the of our FSX based 777 products in order to make them compatible with both FSX and FSX:Steam Edition. Okay- we have some pretty significant news for all of you tonight- so tighten up the shoulder straps and let's get started:įSX-SE Compatibility for PMDG 777-200LR/F and PMDG 777-300ER:
