  1. According to your Log you already have the newest Gizmo version (which might be the source of the problem). As far as i know, SMPv3 or IXEG737 would install the older version of Gizmo cause their installers were build before the release of the latest Gizmo. The release of the latest Gizmo was on 8th of November, so i would guess that you got this Gizmo version by installing or updating another plugin or aircraft that cames bundled with the latest Gizmo. Because i also had experienced problems with this software combinition: I would suggest check your GizmoLog.txt if the crash is related to Gizmo. If so, there might really be a problem with SMPv3 and latest Gizmo, or SMPv3 in combinition with IXEG737. For me it seems to solve by either reverting Gizmo version (which might break other plugins/aircraft - so not really a solution) or updating SMP to v4. You can try to temporary deactivate SMPv3 for a flight by using the Plugin-Menu. But checking out all possible combinitions where it works or crashes is time consuming, because sometimes it crashes right after 10 minutes, and sometimes i had to wait an hour. And it also happenend when i left the plane alone on the runway with running engines.
  2. Can you check your GizmoLog.txt if it ends with something like error: 1576.259: Run(gfx): OnDraw_Gauges_3D: stack overflow error: 1576.281: Run(xp): OnError: stack overflow error: 1576.339: Run(gui): bake_trigger: stack overflow error: 1576.360: Run(gui): bake_ehsi: stack overflow error: 1576.465: Run(timer): run_fmc: stack overflow I had the same problems after i updated Gizmo to latest version 16.11.03 in combinition with SkyMaxxProV3. After rolling back to the older Gizmo version (which came with IXEG737 or SMPv3) i had no such issues anymore. Also after i updated to SMPv4 - which automatically updates Gizmo to 16.11.03 - everything was fine. But i only tested two days, cause i am currently trying xEnviro.
  3. @Tom Stian: My fault. You are right. Speed break arm works once airborne. And for some reason i was confident, that this special flood light on max position was the afds light. But its the background light, that does this effect. I should better read the manual before posting bugs :-)
  4. I can also confirm, that the installer works, despite from the fact, that the gizmo version of the installer leads to an error message when gizmo starts. The basics work, but there is some stuff, that need to be fixed, when XP11 gets stable. For now i found: - APU does not start - Speed Break Arm light does not work - AFDS Flood light does not work
  5. Yesterday i saw one episode of Mayday, where the crew lost orientation in a 737-400. They switched the IRS to ATT, but forgot to hold the plane straight and level. So the IRS never aligned, and the main instruments kept blank. So i thought, i try that in the IXEG. I switched IRS to ATT while climbing and turing to the right with 30 degree bank angle. But instruments came back after some seconds and IRS was aligned. The checklist says, i have to maintain the plane straight and level for around 30 seconds. Would be great, if this will be checked when trying to align the IRS in flight, so that i can also loose orientation :-)
  6. Sounds hard to get LNAV and FMC waypoints really in sync. Setting the distance too high, could have other side effects. I think the waypoint should then only be marked as done, when the distance starts increasing and the course of the aircrafts roughly points to the next waypoint. Would be interesting to know how the real FMC handles such near misses and to which direction the aircraft would steer, when the waypoint was missed. I am sure even on the real plane the programmers had a hard time getting this work.
  7. Today i tried a crazy route, and got a strange behaviour from the FMC. (EDDK 14L) PODI1X PODIP Y867 BADGO Z850 HMM/N0426F330 M170 OSN UM170 BASUM Z78 WSN/N0429F320 UN125 EEL DCT (EDWR 31) The plane missed the waypoint BADGO by about 2.5nm in a turn. While it is still following the LNAV path, the FMC on the LEGS and PROG page got stuck saying that BADGO is the next waypoint. On my first flight i was already at OSN, so i was a little bit confused when i checked the LEGS page.
  8. After startup of one engine and shutdown of the same, i still get the startup sound. Steps to reproduce from Cold and Dark state: 1. Switch battery on 2. Start APU 3. Power electric busses by APU 4. Start APU bleed 5. Start engine number 2 6. After stabilizing of engine number 2 (start switch is back to OFF and EGT stable) cutoff the engine 7. Shutdown all bleeds, APU and Battery. After that i can still hear the engine starting over and over again.
  9. I was always wondering why do people stay overnight in front of apple stores to get a lazy phone on release day. And now I am doing the same for this plane. At least i can wait at home and dont need to buy camping equipment. :-)
  10. Maybe it has a different hydraulic system. As i can remember, the FlyJSim 737 has Hydraulic System A driven by Engine 1 and 2. And Hydraulic System B driven by Elec 1 and 2. Last time i thought that my be an error in their Simulation of the system. But watching the video makes me wondering if the hydraulic system was changed over the time.
