TDS 737-700 base pack released

The PFD is one I yanked out of an Embraer EMB-170, freeware, on avsim or flightsim - been around a few years actually, but sorry can't tell you the name of the file. The rest of it is the A Rojas VC plus some other bits (see at post #18 this thread).
 
Lots of lovely repaints for the TDS 737 are being released these days, this Global Jet Luxembourg BBJ is made by Joshua Raphael (tds737-700_m-urus.zip @ avsim)

I have problem in the VC of TDS 737 MAX 7 with FSX Steam edition

What MDL are you using? I'm using the one from FSX_737MAX7_DEFAULT_737-800Merge_SET_IG32.zip (TDS facebook page) and there's no such bug.

Did you use Raditor to decrease the viewing radius of the exterior MDL file? A too small value is known to cause problems in the VC... I've changed the radius of "TDSX737MAX_LEAPX1B--P2WM.mdl" from 37.72 to 25 and it's ok.

I has added this FSX_737MAX7_DEFAULT_737-800Merge_SET_IG32.zip and solved the problem, thanks
where I can have this paint?
 
does this work in p3d v2.5? Would love to have it.
It totally works in P3D!

Don't know why I found this very inspiring thread so late (thanks guys!), but after doing so, I have spent a bit of time replacing my POSKY 737 fleet with the beautiful TDS models and repaints. Awesome range of variants: 600, 700, 700C, 700ER, 800, 800SFP, 8FV, 900, 900ER, MAX 7, MAX 8, MAX 9 - with all kinds of subtypes.

Now if somebody would only make a set of HD textures for Alejandro Rojas Lucena's VC ... :)
 
My own retro repaint of the 600, in disguise as a Maersk Air 5L9:

I had a number of job related visits to Holland about 10 years ago, usually this was the aircraft that brought me there and back. :)
 
I uploaded the above paint to AVSIM if anyone should want to fly their TDS 737 in retro Maersk Air livery, search for "tds_737_600_oy_app.zip" in the library.
 
Couldn't find a complete list of FSX exits for the various models, so I made one.

Two left side passenger doors, and two right side cargo doors, for each model. I haven't included the big cargo door on the 700C, as I wasn't sure how to do that meaningfully, and haven't included emergency exits either (as they're not modelled).

It's a mix-and match of various sources I could find, plus a bit of calculation and a healthy amount of trial and error:

Code:
600:
[exits]
number_of_exits = 4
exit.0 = 0.4,-14.50, -5.64,  1.52, 0
exit.1 = 0.2,-24.95,  3.28, -2.72, 1
exit.2 = 0.4,-77.00, -5.09,  1.70, 0
exit.3 = 0.2,-65.00,  3.28, -2.22, 1

700/700C:
[exits]
number_of_exits = 4
exit.0 = 0.4, 43.24, -5.64,  1.12, 0
exit.1 = 0.2, 30.22,  3.28, -3.22, 1
exit.2 = 0.4,-26.71, -4.76,  1.41, 0
exit.3 = 0.2,-14.60,  3.61, -2.49, 1

800/800SFP:
[exits]
number_of_exits = 4
exit.0 = 0.4, 51.61, -5.64,  1.12, 0
exit.1 = 0.2, 38.58,  3.28, -3.22, 1
exit.2 = 0.4,-34.25, -5.09,  1.30, 0
exit.3 = 0.2,-22.83,  3.28, -2.62, 1

900/900ER:
[exits]
number_of_exits = 4
exit.0 = 0.4, -15.01, -5.64,  1.22, 0
exit.1 = 0.2, -28.14,  3.28, -3.02, 1
exit.2 = 0.4,-109.85, -5.09,  1.32, 0
exit.3 = 0.2, -98.45,  3.28, -2.22, 1

MAX7:
[exits]
number_of_exits = 4
exit.0 = 0.4, 43.24, -5.64,  1.12, 0
exit.1 = 0.2, 30.22,  3.28, -3.22, 1
exit.2 = 0.4,-26.71, -4.76,  1.41, 0
exit.3 = 0.2,-14.60,  3.61, -2.49, 1

MAX8:
[exits]
number_of_exits = 4
exit.0 = 0.4, -14.98, -5.64,  1.12, 0
exit.1 = 0.2, -28.01,  3.28, -3.22, 1
exit.2 = 0.4,-100.84, -5.09,  1.30, 0
exit.3 = 0.2, -89.42,  3.28, -2.62, 1

MAX9:
[exits]
number_of_exits = 4
exit.0 = 0.4, 56.61, -5.64,  1.22, 0
exit.1 = 0.2, 43.48,  3.28, -3.02, 1
exit.2 = 0.4,-38.23, -5.09,  1.32, 0
exit.3 = 0.2,-26.83,  3.28, -2.22, 1

8FV POSEIDON:
[exits]
number_of_exits = 4
exit.0 = 0.4, 51.61, -5.64,  1.12, 0
exit.1 = 0.2, 38.58,  3.28, -3.22, 1
exit.2 = 0.4,-34.25, -5.09,  1.30, 0
exit.3 = 0.2,-22.83,  3.28, -2.62, 1

Oh, and I made a small patch for the Maersk repaint to correct a really stupid error I made - it's available on AVSIM.
 
I am unsuccessful in finding the command to open baggage doors and service doors on starboard side of aircraft. Any help here? Thanks, NC

Post your [exits] from the aircraft.cfg. I don't remember if this has a popup panel for door exits, or not!

Shift+e+3 or Shift+e+4?

Only showing 4 exits, but service door (opposite of main door) does not open. There is no popup panel to operate..... NC


Maybe TDS FB page would help, I dunno.


[exits]
number_of_exits = 4
exit_rate.0 = 0.10 ;Percent per second
exit_rate.1 = 0.12 ;Percent per second
exit_rate.2 = 0.12 ;Percent per second
exit_rate.3 = 0.12 ;Percent per second
 
I downloaded and installed the TDS 737 Max8 and used the [exits] from penz's post. This what I see: Click on the pic to make bigger!
