GSX Support FSX/P3D / Re: PMDG737 pushback problem when APU software bug strikes.

« Last post by Captain Kevin on April 20, 2024, 02:04:44 pm »

Kev, but would that change the whole pushback procedure where I have to start engines before pushback irrespective of the APU state?

It shouldn't, or at least I haven't had that issue. The only thing I can suggest is try it and find out. I was fairly certain this was in the GSX settings somewhere, but Umberto had corrected me saying it was in the aircraft profile the last time somebody had asked.

GSX Support MSFS / Could not find valid Navdata at this position, services are not available (GVBA)

« Last post by lordmarkhlam on April 20, 2024, 11:10:15 am »

Hi,

   I own GSX Pro for a long time now, and the other day I got an error which prevent me from using at a MSFS' Marketplace purcharsed airport (GVBA): "Could not find valid Navdata at this position, services are not available". I don't know very well which log file you need as I can't find a couatl.log file, so I attach the ones  with most similar names I found.

Thank you for your support.

Ray, there should be a setting in the aircraft profile that allows you to start the engines before pushback, so just a matter of changing it. It's also useful in case you need to start the engines at the gate because of an inoperative APU.

GSX Support FSX/P3D / [Resolved] PMDG737 pushback problem when APU software bug strikes.

« Last post by Ray Proudfoot on April 19, 2024, 11:40:40 pm »

Hi Umberto. I have the PMDG737NGXu in P3D v5.3HF2. When the APU fires up all is well and I start the engines when prompted. The pushback completes as normal.

You may be aware there is a bug in the PMDG code that has never been fixed because it’s so random. When this happens there’s no APU power so I have to request the power truck at the gate to start the engines.

Whilst this gets them going I cannot request pushback with engines running. Is there any workaround you can suggest to request pushback with engines already running?

I also have FSL Concorde which has no APU so engines 2 and 3 gave to be started before pushback but this is catered for in GSX.

GSX Support MSFS / GSX causing sim to Freeze

« Last post by JetMech383 on April 19, 2024, 10:26:13 pm »

Hello! So I am not having CTD issues which I know GSX doesn't cause. I really don't know what is causing the issue I am having so hopefully someone can give some guidance. I haven't had any issues with the sim or GSX for months now. Today, I loaded into the sim, grabbed the PMDG 737-700 and spawned into an airport. The loading screen sat there for 20-25 mins. When it finally showed the flight deck, the yellow Ready to Fly button was there but it would not allow me to click it. After 15 mins, I had to use task manager to exit the sim. Attempt 2, got back into the sim, selected the CRJ and spawned into the another airport. It loaded quickly and allowed me to select Ready to Fly. Selected GSX and the screen was stuck on Loading. Check Couatl and it was running so I restarted it. Selected GSX again and would not go past the loading screen. Ok, let me completely restart the computer and sim. Attempt 3, grabbed the PMDG again and spawned into the airport. Again took a long time to load and this time I let it sit at Ready to Fly to see how long it would take to allow me to select it. Finally after about 23 mins, I was able to select Ready to Fly but something wasn't right. My normal panel state is ColdDarkGPU but the GPU wasn't there. Ok let me select it from the FMS. Go to select it, and everything freezes. For troubleshooting purposes, I exit Couatl and after a few mins, the aircraft allowed me to select a GPU. Restarted Couatl and tried to open GSX and it stuck at the loading screen again.

I am unsure if its an issue between GSX and PMDG or GSX, PMDG, and/or the sim. Anyone out there seen or is currently seeing the same issue?

My God I don't have the capacity to follow all of this.

Do you want to actually solve the problem or were you hoping for a miracle.

GSX Support MSFS / Catering animation not moving

« Last post by Salma on April 19, 2024, 05:59:49 pm »

The catering employee movement only works at the rearward. I can only hear the sound in the front and there's no movement of the employee. but It used to all work well before
