Hello everybody!
I downloaded the files in Opencockpits site (here:
http://www.opencockpits.com/uploads/scr ... 37_NGX.zip ) to make my EFIS and MCP work on 737NGX, but only the EFIS goes well. The MCP digits goes on but the Altitude indicator just stay with only 3 digits on and the MCP don't communicate with the simulator.
Some informations:
EFIS and MCP (by Opencockpits) captain side;
Prepar3D v3.4;
Windows 7.
I know this files don't have Roar support, but I´m starting to make make home cockpit and I intend to buy his software in a future.
Please, can you help me to make MCP on?
Best regards from Brazil!

HI,
The driver you ar enow using will not work with the latest updated PMDG B737 NGX SP1D version. A new SDK (SP1D) from PMDG was released after the driver was
released for SP1C. It will not work, sorry.

The version I´m using is: PMDG 737-800/900NGX for Prepar3D VERSION v1.10.6461, 30SEP15.

You will need OC4BAv4 to get your MCP to work.

Roar, my MCP is the first version of MCP by Open. Is there any problem to use OC4BAv4?

It should work OK, I believe. If there is a need to change the input/output numbering plan to fit the OCP4NGX driver I will help you get it working.

Hi, Roar!
I can't make OC4BA turn on with P3D.
When I inniciate P3D the OC4BA screen blinks and goes by. After I select 737 NGX (systems on) and try to e OC4BA via Add-on menu it not open.
P3D is at: E:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3
SIOC and OC4BA are at: E:\SIOC
Is this the problem?
What could be wrong?

SIOC folder path should be
E:\Lockheed Martin\SIOC
All SIOC files and all OC4BA files should be In SIOC folder

Ok. I'll change everything and will report.
Another question: what country are you? I'm asking cause we have different time zones.
