Could anyone explain this in further detail? I have no "Airplanes" folder in my Virtuali. Only an empty "GSX" folder and some "Couatl" files.

I appreciate any help. Thanks!

Hi,

I've just got Lisbon V2 from Aerosoft and when I try to park the a/c it gives me gate 146 only.
I check with MS for parking heavies and there is also 147,412,415 and 422. How comes these positions do not show with GSX?

As explained many times already on the forum, and of course on the manual, the "Heavy" designation doesn't mean anything. You can designed a parking as Heavy and set it as small to fit a Cessna only. What's counts is ONLY the parking radius set by the developer. GSX compares this against your wingspan, to indicate a parking is too small for you.

And of course, as explained on the GSX manual too, you can customize this using the GSX included parking customization feature, that will allow you to override the radius set in the scenery by the scenery developer, if you believe it was set too low for that parking. The small airplane icon on the GSX editor will automatically set a parking to be large enough for the airplane you are flying.

Support for the 777-300 is there with the latest GSX Live Update.

IMPORTANT: Remove any GSX.CFG you have in your %APPDATA%\Virtuali\Airplanes\PMDG 777-300ER folder, if you added it before this update.

You can further customize the airplane using the GSX editor, but it's important you remove any unofficial GSX.CFG file you might have had already, otherwise it will take precedence on the internal GSX data, which adds support to check the additional ground connections (air start, gpu, chocks, etc.).

How do I actually make door number 2 as door number 1 for GSX?

I've tried change door number 2 from L Entry 2 to L Entry 1 (vice versa for door number 1) then I click save. But I still get the message "open door number 1" but then I go  back to the GSX customize aircraft and passenger door #2 still has the name L Entry 2.

You can't change just the door's name and expect it will work, that's just a label, you must exchange the XML custom expression too. Read this thread here:

I have read that, but simply creating a "PMDG 777-300ER" folder and putting that data into a "gsx.cfg" named file hasn't worked.

That's because nobody said you "simply" put a GSX.CFG in that folder. That's JUST your starting point. You will THEN have to edit the doors to move them according to the different airplane size.

But this is outdated info and it was meaningful only as a temporary solution to explain how you could create a configuration yourself, without waiting for the official support.

As you can see from my previous message, the PMDG B777-300ER IS now OFFICIALLY supported in GSX with the latest Live Update. In this case, as I've said in my previous message and as also indicated in the Live Update release notes, if you already put a GSX.CFG file BEFORE the update, you must REMOVE IT now:

IMPORTANT: Remove any GSX.CFG you have in your %APPDATA%\Virtuali\Airplanes\PMDG 777-300ER folder, if you added it before this update.

Ran the Live Update, everything seems to be working well with the 777-300ER except for push-back, any reason why?

[streichholz]

What is not working with the pushback?

[Aaqib Afzal]

What is not working with the pushback?

After passenger boarding no matter which gate im at with the -300ER it says "pushback is service is not available at this position" everytime i request for pushback, seems to be working fine with the -200LR
