You probably haven't *really* set parking brakes, for example because there was no hydraulic power, because you forgot to turn on the hydraulic Aux pump.

Would it be possible to add another method of using ground services such as a chock option in a future release?  You would never set the parking brake for loading a MD-11F.  Main wheels would be chocked and the center gear is allowed to travel freely (and it moves quite a bit!).

GSX already supports this, and we use it for the Aerosoft Airbus, but I had a look at the MD11, and it doesn't seem to have a wheel chock option.

yes, you are correct - no option in the MD-11 - but I didn't know if that could be added via GSX or maybe there is some other workaround?  If that is the way it has to be because of PMDG, then so be it - I just cringe thinking of that poor center gear! ;)
