Subject: MCP Pro not working with MSFS 2020 and PMDG 737
Hi
I am using a PC running Windows 10 with MSFS 2020 and the PMDG 737. I have two GoFlight devices: an MCP Pro and an EFIS, both of which worked fine with FSX in the past. I installed GIT MSFS, and now the EFIS works correctly, but the MCP Pro does not: the displays are black, and the knobs and buttons are unresponsive.
After reading the manuals and forums, I checked and tried several things:
I launched both MSFS and GIT as administrator, with no success.
I verified that EnableDataBroadcast=1 is present in the 737_Options.ini file (see attached).
I confirmed that the pollypotsoftware-flightsimio-module is present in Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\community (see attached).
Both devices (EFIS and MCP Pro) are connected to USB 2.0 ports (I tried changing ports, but it had no effect).
I previously installed GoFlight drivers (GFConfigSetup_2_28_0-2) before GIT. When I learned that GoFlight drivers are not mandatory for the PMDG 737, I uninstalled them, but this did not resolve the issue.
Do you have any suggestions to fix this problem?
Thank you,
JP Caramella
