    Hi Dwayne,

    A repaint won't break the interface. Are you laoding the NGX twice and triggering the PMDG SDK bug?

    Hi Steve,

    I 'm loading like normal, and the interface won't detect the repaint, but the others is fine
    I pretty much confirmed now that it's not working.. what i do is, I'll load 737 ngx 800, and then fire up the interface.. and works perfectly,
    Then, i shut down fsx and start it back up,  select the poiesdon (can never spell that word..haha) and then fire up the pmdg interface.. and nothing.. it detects it as Generic poiesdon pmdg but nothing works

    Hi Dwayne,

    Can you give me the exact repaint version/details you are using and I'll try it on my PC.

    Thx

    Hi Dwayne,

    I have just downloaded and tried the US Navy P-8A "Poseidon" of VP-30 "Pro's Nest" at NAS Jacksonville, FL from Avsim and it works fine. Are you using an older repaint perhaps?

    PS, what do you mean by "the new updated NGX?" Are you referring to SP1d as I don't have it yet!

  • droverdrover
    Yes sir,
    the new update SP1d, i downloaded it from PMDG store, and updated the operations center

    it's a livery all in its own class called "PMDG P-8A Poseidon"

    I wouldn't say it doesn't work, it just doesn't work like the rest of the PMDG aircraft. The model appears as PMDG P8A Poseidon.  And the detective works!

    Yes.. i stand corrected.. thats right..  the detective is detecting it.. but that's about it.. 

    thanks Kcolon

    Ok, it must be that the aircraft name has changed. GIT looks for "PMDG 737" in the aircraft name to determine the NGX has loaded.

    A temp workaround would be to change the liveries "title" in aircraft.cfg so the string above can be found.

    Best wishes

  • droverdrover
    Yes sir,
    that fixed it.. i changed the name in the simobject / airplane foloer to PMDG 737-800 WL -P8A Poseidon,   From PMDG - P8A poseidon

    thanks

    Great. I'll add some PMDG Poseidon detection code in the next release.

    Best wishes
