Need testers for 737 systems simulator software

[metamarty]

i've just noticed something
the lower eicas display doesn't seem to scale properly (although not connected to flightsim at the moment)
have you noticed this or is it happening just to me?

Yes, you're right. I noticed it too. This was because this display is a compound display and it can contain various other screens, depending on the MFD SYS en MFD ENG buttons. I've uploaded a fixed version. Thanks for the report.

Nice... I was going to ask about resizing. Looks great.

One thing Marty, any plans on adding standby instrument support and clocks to the display app? I've got three LCD spanning across my MIP and my goal was to have CAPT and FO IN/OUTBOARD, UPPER and LOWER, STANDBY, and CAPT/FO Clocks on the LCDs.

Yes, ProsimDisplay will have all of the standby instruments on final release. I just haven't built them yet.

Now I'm really excited!

Thanks.

On another note, I'm struggling with my RS232 CPFlight MCP and EFIS. What's the preferred solution? I'm trying to use it with ProsimMCP. Sometimes it works others it doesn't. I think it's a matter of startup order, and I may also be confusing it.

I've downgraded my RS232 MCP firmware to 2.08 (I think) in order to make it work without the flightlabs driver, but through PMDG and FSUIPC as per Ian's site. It works great.

Unfortunately, now that I am trying to work it through Prosim, it seems like it doesn't connect correctly. I'll have green for connection via the COM port, and my MCP will work, but my EFIS will not change the displays in MCPDisplay (running on another computer). other times, none of it works.

Am I supposed to disable the control mapping I have set up through PMDG?

Do I need to upgrade the firmware back to what it was?

So I have to use FSCOM and the CPFlight driver?

Thanks,

Warren

Check the "Database" box in the configuration screen of Prosim737. If it says "Hybrid", you have correctly installed the data. You can also check the ident page in the CDU.

Is there a way to set the default altimeter setting to "inches" on the PFD's?

The latest update is really good!!! Dual autopilot CatIII with flare mode.....Nice work.
And thanks for the A/P disconnect inputs.

That's a good idea. I'll add that to instructor station.

The autoland has been in there for some time, but I'm continously improving it. Latest release has TCAS.

Hi Marty,
I just flew two flights and when on final, about 5 miles out, the flaps numbers dissapear from the speed tape?? Is that right?
