Nav data for the newly released PMDG 777

Will there be a 777 specific database coming soon?

Hi,

It is already available in Navigraph Hub.

However, there seems to be an issue with the aircraft detecting the new database if the aircraft was launched before running the update in Hub. A workaround can be found here: https://forum.pmdg.com/forum/microsoft-flight-simulator-2020-2024-products-discussion/pmdg-777/general-discussion-aa/307223-navigraph-data-set?p=307478#post307478

The folder should contain these three files - all these files must be delete:

Ok but what three specific folders do I need to delete?

Hi,
I have just re-upload a new package (no new revision) where we have corrected the path. Please do following:

  1. close the sim
  2. go into the Hub and press the “remove” button
  3. after that - the “install” button
  4. start the sim and check the data now

Please let us know, if this works now … thanks for your patience and your help!

Cheers,
Richard

I’ll do that in about an hours time

Great, thank you very much :+1:

Hi Richard,

i’ve tested your solution, but same problem here - 2404.

No, sorry guys - it was my fault therefore I have reverted to the original package. The issue at the moment for us is, that we have currently two different paths gotten from PMDG and we will first confirm the right one.

Sorry for the confusion - please use the workaround from the PMDG forum till we have the confirmation and also have made the changes on our side (if needed). Sorry again guys!

Cheers
Richard

Hi Richard,

No problem, all the work you’ve done since long time is just perfect !

For the moment, until the next AIRAC change, we can use the PMDG solution where we can find on their forum.
If need help, just ask me, it’s work now !

Cheers,
Alexis

It still is screwing with the minimums and baro knobs and the other knobs in the area (VOR, APP, MAP, etc.). None of these knobs function correctly with the nav Data installed

Please get this fixed. It’s really annoying I’m having to use out of date data

Hi again,

… and it´s working with the default data, which comes with the setup? I ask because it´s very unlikely that this has really todo with the navdata update. It contains only one database for the FMC. We have no interaction with the PMDG 777. So, I would be very surprised when this has something todo with the update.

It looks, that our path which we offer is ok so far. The addon should move the files to the correct location than but it seems not working correctly. PMDG is currently investigating what happened behind and what they can do …

In the meantime, please use the workaround from the PMDG forum. It will work …

Thank you,
Richard

Well I have up to date data even though I have uninstalled the PMDG777 data

I’m telling you it doesn’t work… I have used the work around from PMDG

This did not work for me. I will concentrate on the manuals for now and will not use the aircraft until this gets fixed.
Thanks for trying to get me a work around.
I don’t mind waiting for a fix.

How do I completely uninstall the nav data?

Press the remove button in the Hub - thats it.

Cheers,
Richard

Hi Richard, after your latest fix/email I can now report that the data has successfully updated.
Thank you for working so hard to find the solution.
