Release Week is Here!!
Captains,
Welcome to Release Week for the PMDG 747-400 Queen of the Skies II for FSX, FSX-Steam Edition and Prepar3D v3.x!
As of this morning, we are still on track to our planned release date- and we have only a few small detail items to take care of before we push her out of the hangar for you to fly!
I have been promising to give you a quick rundown on some stuff that you might find interesting about this incredible new product, and late last night I sent an email out to the team asking for their help in collecting the various features and details that spring to their minds as "stuff that will interest you!"
We all agreed that this list is very short compared to what we have packed into this product, but it will serve as a reasonably good preview to give you an idea just how packed full of detail this product is! (This list isn't even close to being all-inclusive...by the way... if you like detail - this product is going to blow your mind.)
Included:
- 747-400, 747-400BCF, 747-400D, 747-400ER, 747-400ERF, 747-400F, 747-400M,
- 62 liveries (as of tonight..still growing) available for immediate download via the PMDG Operations Center.
- Paint Kit available from our site on release day.
- Software Developers Kit for those who wish to develop products to interact with the 747.
Things the Development Team Thought You'd Like to Know:

- Accurate fire detection systems modeled for all aircraft types.
- multiple fire detection/suppression system manufacturers modeled and user selectable.

- random delamination artifacts in the cockpit windscreens.
A few new, big items we are bringing you as well:
- Fully customized sound production model that allows us to enhance the cockpit sound experience to accurately match that you would have if you were sitting on the flight deck of a 747-400 in flight. This includes accurate implementation of fan noise, slipstream, cockpit environmental sounds, engine sound fading with speed and/or altitude, shaking, vibration and other environmental sounds you experience during the operation of the flight.
- Fully customized sound cones and projection models created using movie studio quality engineering equipment and software to reproduce the internal and external engine sounds for all engine types.This implementation includes multiple bass layers, seamless blending, customized sound cone stitching to eliminate distortion and reproduce the unique sound signature of each engine type.
- Significant support for sub-woofer use.
- Did we mention a fully customized sound engine with enhanced memory management to that allows us to provide an incredibly feature rich sound environment without negatively impacting VAS.
In this product, we are also introducing a new, fully customized physics model that becomes pervasive throughout the simulation:
- Realistic ground interface between the surface of the airplane tires and the ground surface.
- Accurate rolling resistance model between the aircraft tires and the ground surface. (variation between surface types is right around the corner, too!)
- accurate thermal energy transfer model for autobrake and manual brake use, including thermal soaking of brake/tire/landing gear elements.
- accurate thermal energy transfer model for cooling
- wing flex model based upon accurate rigidity, stiffness and oscillation model of the 747-400 wing structure.
- accurate thrust and energy model simulation for all engine types.
- accurate mixing and blending of air temperatures and pressures from engine bleed tap to cabin outflow valve, including thermal changes and pressurization.
- accurate control effectiveness based upon airspeed, angle of attack, control operation and deflection.
- parking brake, chocking position and increased rolling after tire loss based upon physics.
- engine pylon shaking based upon turbulence induced acceleration moment, wing motion and rotational inertia of engine components.
- cockpit viewpoint shaking based upon the airplane's physical interaction with the world, including taxi ground roll, takeoff, touch down, engine excessive vibration transmitted through the airframe, turbulence, stall conditions disrupting airflow, high speed buffet, speedbrake use, excessive G force, and more.
- transfer of heat between fluids (fuel mixing, hydraulic fluid returning to reservoirs, etc.)
- transfer of heat through heat exchangers in the bleed system, fuel and hydraulic systems.
- accurate modeling of fuel temperature based upon the thermal exchange of heat through the wing surface, radiant heating by the sun, etc.
- accurate modeling of cabin temperatures based upon a complete airflow model.
- cabin temperature modeling based upon electrical equipment operation, internal lighting operation, supplementary heating sources (foot/shoulder/windshield air use) the number of passengers onboard and their relative distribution throughout the cabin, solar heating of areas such as windows and exposure to direct or indirect sunlight, the state of cabin doors.

Okay... that list barely scratches the surface, if you can believe it...
There is a TON of stuff, options and details that you will discover as you explore and use the airplane, including pages and pages of options to allow you to customize the cockpit to match your favorite options or airline configuration. We are also providing a bunch of "verified" cockpit configurations for various airlines and airframes that will allow you to fly a specific airplane from a specific line, with the correct cockpit options selected.
The are just a few of the things that give the PMDG 747-400 Queen of the Skies II an incredible level of authenticity all around.
All of this, and a ton of VAS management to keep you flying and enjoying the simulation.
We are incredibly proud of this product and we think it stands as an incredible achievement for the community to enjoy. We are very close to rolling her out of the hangar you- so don't wander too far off!

Si je comprends bien il font une liste pour justifier les futurs 150 dollars?

JumboJet · [↑]

yep, mais même 500 dollars je les sors pour un Jumbo alors bon.

Epikk · [↑]

En amour on ne compte pas.

JumboJet · [↑]

J'aurais pas dis mieux

Flyschool · [↑]

150$ pour quelque chose qui n'intègre même pas de multicrew ... Je trouve ça sacrément abuser

JumboJet · [↑]

Nan c'est juste un 747 comme si on l'achetais a Boeing, ils nous donnent la machine pas le personnel ! Ou si tu veux parler du shared en générale c’est bugué et de plus c'est dans les plans de PMDG.

Rappelle-moi à combien il est vendu le 320 FSL pour P3D ?
Bon je pense qu'un 747 PMDG avec ce niveau de réalisme 150 dol ça ne sera pas du vol... en tout cas moi j'y serai !

JumboJet · [↑]

Je me vois déjà sur des pistes américaines, avec une livrée américaine et mon Jumbo américain, sur Vatsim :o

ydelta · [↑]

Tu serais pas un peu fanatique des US toi par hasard...

JumboJet · [↑]

Je vois pas du tout de quoi tu parle

Flyschool · [↑]

De toute façon à force d'augmenter les prix des addons au fur à mesure, on se retrouvera bientôt avec des C172 et des J3 Cub à 100$, et des 787 et 350 à 450$. Je trouve qu'ils se font quand même pas trop chier. (Pas la peine de me sortir une comparaison avec FSL, ils font partis de ces devs qui en profitent)

Fuchs · [↑]

A force d'avoir accepté de payer des bouses entre 50 et 70€, fallait pas s'étonner de voire les gosses boites réclamer plus...

JumboJet · [↑]

Absolument d'accord !

AmineB · [↑]

Moi je me vois sillonner le ciel Africain avec un 747F , repaint Cargolux ou Silkway

Cargolux j'aime bien aussi

Mais préfère les ricains

C'est pas un reproche. C'est 'grâce' à eux que cette tendance à commencer...
Même les Carenado approchent les 50€ maintenant...

Eh eh eh...

- Optional cockpit lavatory

Je tenais à le souligner...

A ce prix là je préfère A2A.

Eh oui, y a des compagnies qui l'ont, d'autres pas.. Et ça modifie pas mal le poste!

C'est moins cher qu'un fsl qui coûte 190$ une fois les taxes ajoutées

oussama777-300er · [↑]

Ohh perso je vais payer 150 dollars yeux fermés pour pmdg qualité externe et interne et liste qualité changement de VC etc. mieux de mettre 140 fslabs pour un seul modèle A320 je dois attendre 6 ans pour avoir 319 ou 321

Epikk · [↑]

Franchement Oussama, tu mets ton argent où tu veux... s'en tape complet.

oussama777-300er · [↑]

t'est pas le droit de me parle comme ça c'est un forum tout le monde donne son avis donc respect stop okey eppik ciao
