目前大概知道737的EFB会在5月底BETA测试，而777开发顺利进行中。
不久前,我们为DC-6和MSFS 737的整个机队进行了一系列更新。详细信息如下:
MSFS的PMDG 737 (所有版本):
此更新主要针对较小的更改和项目,这些项目着重于结构代码的改进,新功能的准备以及背面改进,从而提高了产品线的整体稳定性。在此过程中,我们还清理了一些小型服务报告,并在AFDS的持续改进的基础上,为PMDG通用飞行平板电脑添加了一些背景准备, 即将进行Beta测试。
跟踪中的更改列表很小,因为大多数更改都是背景,但是对于那些喜欢列表的人,这里是一个非详尽的示例:
0012284:[虚拟驾驶舱-几何/纹理] VC上的小孔( vscimone )
0011971:[常规-发动机]处理MSFS内置模型,用于在高海拔地区重新启动飞行发动机( emvaos )
0012338:[主面板-PFD ]取消选择后,仪表标记仍然存在( abashkatov )
0011178:[主面板-PFD ]单CH天使报喜显示为绿色框架( abashkatov )
0012358:[ FMS / AFDS-LNAV ]另一个自定义航点命名的自定义航点( emvaos )
0011698:[常规-飞行模型] AP侧倾通道已修改,重点是发动机熄火情况( emvaos )
0012348:[虚拟驾驶舱-几何/纹理] VC中的错别字( vscimone )
0012346:[常规-Comms / Navs ] MSFS ATC未使用的飞机类型( cbpowell )
还有许多更改旨在平滑产品进入Xbox环境。
这些更新可以通过PMDG运营中心为pmdg.com用户拉出。Microsoft完成其接收过程后,Marketplace用户将收到更新。
用于MSFS的PMDG 737-XBOX:
Xbox版本:737-700和737-800都参与了Microsoft MSFS Marketplace的获取过程。我们一周没有看到任何进展,因此还没有能够在Xbox环境中对这些版本进行最后一轮测试, 所以那必须仍然发生。为此,我们需要微软在测试环境中向我们释放飞机-我们原预计这将在上周发生,但至今仍未发生。
如果一切顺利,我们目前估计它们可能会在25MAY23或01JUN23上向客户开放,具体取决于Microsoft,并取决于我们是否发现需要进一步测试更新的问题。摄入过程似乎比以前慢了,因此耐心是目前的最佳策略。
用于MSFS的PMDG DC-6 (所有版本):
PMDG DC-6今天收到了一个小更新,该更新着重于UI改进,而随着Xbox的引入,UI改进变得很重要。Marketplace PC / Xbox版本昨天针对Marketplace客户进行了直播。所有其他客户都可以使用PMDG运营中心更新到Build 2.00.0049。
此构建的更改列表如下:
-平板电脑现在单击以存放/卸载(而不是拖动)
-额外的阵风杆点击点,更方便访问
-平板电脑的“燃料和负载管理器”上的点击点更轻松
-错误修正:单击以存放时,整个平板电脑不再发光蓝色
PMDG通用飞行平板电脑( 737 ):
我们希望该平板电脑将在5月底之前进行Beta测试-这意味着我们将开始考虑为用户发布时间表。我们仍然希望对UI / UX进行一轮改进和清理,所以不,直到以后我们才会为您预览。
我们现在正在评估后勤问题,这些问题将影响我们将平板电脑分发给Xbox用户的方式。 我们的目标是为平板电脑提供无缝,统一的分发机制,但是我们正在遇到一些障碍,这些障碍将改变我们将平板电脑分发给Xbox用户的方式。 我们正在评估如何最好地解决这些问题,稍后将提供有关这些问题的更多信息。
对于那些想知道为什么这款平板电脑花了这么长时间的人,请快速刷新一下 MDG在我们的产品中包含了一款平板电脑,可以追溯到十年前。平板电脑并不是什么新鲜事物,也不是非常困难或神奇的东西。所有PMDG飞机均以C + +编码,这是一种用于模拟的很好的固体工程语言。在MSFS环境中使用C + +是在容器内进行的,该容器限制了一些与外界进行通信的“正常” C + +功能。(我怀疑这样做是为了在PC和Xbox上实现安全性/通用性-但老实说,我不知道...这是我的猜测... )
为了确保我们的平板电脑可以与外界交流,我们用脚本语言编写了该脚本。脚本语言非常适合此类内容-并且得到了Asobo的大力支持。当需要在平板电脑和飞机之间传递信息时,技术挑战就来了-这就需要创建整个语言解析模块,以尊重所施加的限制 C + +,同时利用脚本语言的功能。如果您正在阅读这句话,这对您来说没有任何意义-请这样想:我们想象您在说您的语言, 而且您必须使用其他人的语言与他人交谈,但是您只能使用数字0-9进行交谈。
无论如何-我们已经解决了这个问题,并且我们正在真正充实功能。我们正在与我们的第一个外部到PMDG开发人员合作,他们将在平板电脑中添加一些很酷的功能,这对于他自己的应用程序也是独一无二的-只是为了支撑我们的东西 显示平板电脑的功能。
平板电脑的初始发行将为您带来许多功能,并且随着时间的推移还会带来更多功能。Navigraph和simbrief用户将对确保我们的技术与他们的技术之间紧密紧密编织的关心感到满意。我仍然不会为此项目计划发布时间表,但是一旦我获得批准与您分享其中的一些内容,我就会。
用于MSFS (所有版本)的PMDG 777:
该项目的工作正在进行中,我们对事情的发展感到非常满意。随着我们继续支持继续改进737平板电脑开发所需的工作, Xbox测试和锻炼-但总体情况正在发展,最终以抛光的形式融合在一起。我预计直到以后都不会向您展示开发中的镜头。这样做的原因是,我们正在利用2020年至今737年开发期间所学到的许多知识, 它产生了一些绝对惊人的结果和功能,我们知道您会喜欢。我们不想以部分形式运出它们,而是要在它们准备就绪时向您显示它们,以保留“啊!”!"这是由于看到了一些新颖而令人兴奋的东西,这些事物融合了来自我们工作和您的建议的想法和变化。

Captains,
A few moments ago we made live a series of updates for the DC-6 and the entire fleet of MSFS 737s. Details are as follows:
PMDG 737 for MSFS (all versions):
This update is largely focused on small changes and items that are focused on structural code improvements, preparations for new functionality, and back-side improvements that improve the overall stability of the product line. Along the way we also clean up some small service reports, builds upon continued improvements to the AFDS and adds some background preparations for the PMDG Universal Flight Tablet, that is about to enter into beta testing.
The change list from tracking is pretty small, since most of the changes are background, but for those who like lists, here is a non-exhaustive sample:
0012284: [Virtual Cockpit - Geometry/Textures] Small hole on VC (vscimone)
0011971: [General - Engines] Handling MSFS inbuilt model for in flight engine restart at high altitudes (emvaos)
0012338: [Main Panel - PFD] Meters Marker remains after deselection (abashkatov)
0011178: [Main Panel - PFD] SINGLE CH Annunciation shown with green frame (abashkatov)
0012358: [FMS/AFDS - LNAV] Custom waypoint off another custom waypoint naming (emvaos)
0011698: [General - Flight Model] AP roll channel revised with emphasis to engine out situations (emvaos)
0012348: [Virtual Cockpit - Geometry/Textures] Typo in VC (vscimone)
0012346: [General - Comms/Navs] Aircraft Type Not Used by MSFS ATC (cbpowell)
There are also a number of changes designed to smooth entry of the product into the Xbox environment.
These updates can be pulled via the PMDG Operations Center for pmdg.com users. Marketplace users will receive the update once Microsoft completes their intake process.
PMDG 737 for MSFS - XBOX:
Xbox Releases: The 737-700 and 737-800 are both involved in the Microsoft MSFS Marketplace intake process. We did not see any progress for a week, and thus haven't yet been able to run a final round of testing on these builds in the Xbox environment, so that must still take place. To do that we need Microsoft to release the airplanes to us in the test environment- which we had expected would happen last week, but still has not happened.
If everything goes perfectly, we currently estimate they will may go live to customers on either 25MAY23 or 01JUN23, depending upon Microsoft and depending upon whether we find problems that need further testing updates. It seems the intake process has been running more slowly than it was, so patience is the best strategy at this juncture.
PMDG DC-6 for MSFS (all versions):
The PMDG DC-6 received a small update today that is focused on UI improvements that became important with the introduction to Xbox. The Marketplace PC/Xbox version went live yesterday for Marketplace customers. All other customers can update to Build 2.00.0049 using the PMDG Operations Center.
The change list for this build is as follows:
- Tablet now clicks to stow / unstow (instead of drag)
- Additional gust lever click spot for easier access
- Easier clickspots on the tablet's Fuel & Load Manager
- Bugfix: whole tablet no longer glows blue when clicked to stow
PMDG Universal Flight Tablet (737):
We expect the tablet will go into beta testing before end of May- which means we will begin considering a release timeframe for users. We still want to take the UI/UX through a round of improvements and clean-up, so no- we won't be previewing it for you until later.
We are also now evaluating logistical problems that will impact how we distribute the tablet to Xbox users. Our goal is to provide a seamless, unified distribution mechanism for the tablet, but there are some barriers we are hitting that will change how we distribute the tablet to Xbox users. We are evaluating how best to deal with these issues and will have more information on them at a later date.
A quick refresher for those who wonder why this tablet has taken so long: PMDG have included a tablet in our products going back a decade. Tablets aren't anything new- nor are they terribly difficult or magical. All PMDG airplanes are coded in C++, which is a good, solid engineering language for simulation. The use of C++ within the MSFS environment takes place within a container that limits some of the "normal" C++ capabilities for communication with the outside world. (I suspect this was done for security/commonality across PC and Xbox- but I don't honestly know... this is my guess...)
In order to ensure our tablet can communicate with the outside world, we wrote that in script language. Script language is great for stuff like this- and has great support from Asobo. The technical challenge comes when it is time to hand information between the tablet and the airplane- and this has necessitated the creation of an entire language parsing module to respect the limitations placed on C++, while leveraging the capabilities of script language. If you are reading this sentence and this doesn't make sense to you- think of it this way: We Imagine you are speaking your language, and you have to talk to someone else in their language, but you can only do so using the numbers 0-9.
Quick. Go!
Anyway- we have that piece solved and we are on to the fun part of actually fleshing out the functionality. We are working with our first external-to-PMDG dev who will be adding some cool functionality to the tablet that is unique to his own application as well- just to strut our stuff and show what the tablet is capable of.
Initial release of the tablet will bring you a number of features, with a few more coming over time. Navigraph and simbrief users will be pleased by the care that has gone into ensuring a nice, tight weave between our technology and theirs. I am still not going to project a release timeline for this item, but once I get a green light to share a bit of this with you I will.
PMDG 777 for MSFS (all versions):
Work is progressing on this project, and we are really really happy with how things are going. There has been some dev-time bleed off as we continue to support the work needed for continued improvements on the 737, tablet development, Xbox testing and workout- but overall things are moving along and the pieces are finally coming together in a polished form. I do not anticipate showing you in-development shots until later. The reason for this is that we are leveraging much of what we learned during 737 development between 2020 and the present, and it is yielding some absolutely spectacular results and features that we know you will love. Rather than dribble them out in partial form, we want to show them to you as they are ready so as to preserve the "moment of ah!" that comes from seeing something new and exciting that incorporates ideas and changes that come from our work and your suggestions.
