PMDG 737 BBJ Seated passengers

[fabristunt]

Hi there!
I just checked the Coault changelog and I see that seated passengers have been released for the 737 PMDG.
Does this include the BBJ? I tried searching, but I was unable to find this information.
If not, will it perhaps come at a later stage?

Keep up the good work FSDT!

Sorry, no, but it will in a future upgrade.

[fabristunt]

Thanks for your reply, looking forward to it!

Check the latest update.

Thanks Kevin, I tried it.
Doesn't seem to be working for me. The pax disappear after walking in, but the Flight Attendants stay there.
I have the latest version of both addons (737 and GSX), I just run the live update one more time to be sure.

I also run the FSDT installer as Administrator, but it doesn't work. I tried both the PMDG livery and my own livery.
The Chime switch was in the correct position, but I tried both just to be sure.
Any suggestions?


Edit:
tried removing the custom aircraft profile from gsx, disabled the pax and re-enabled them. Still not working.

Do you see passengers in external view ?

[fabristunt]

I have tried with the Drone and by moving from the pilot seat with arrows. Does the drone count as external view?
How am I supposed to see the passengers inside the plane when I use the external view?

I guess you tried the BBJ ( -700 ), not the BBJ2 ? If yes, it's fixed in 3.0.9

[fabristunt]

Yes, it was the BBJ (700) all along. I will try on Thursday and report back. Thank you!

[fabristunt]

It works, thank you!

Now I'm trying on the 738 pax version and there the passengers turn pink when seated. The livery has the airline code in the cfg, but I see that the model files have not been touched by GSX. I tried activating and removing the seated pax, just opening the installer and all that. I'll keep trying.

[fabristunt]

Found the culprit. Everything works now.

Basically my 738 livery went to the pmdg-aircraft-737-liveries folder instead. I removed it, installed a KLM livery through the PMDG Operation Center. This created the pmdg-aircraft-738-liveries folder. Then I reinstalled the Luxair PTP I found on Flightsim.to
This time the 738 Luxair livery went in the correct folder, pmdg-aircraft-738-liveries. This time the GSX installer was able to modify the model files.
Now everything works.
I hope this helps.
