Pakistan-1, please check proper paths in your files. In Linux paths are case sensitive, so you need to write /Splash/, not /splash/. Thank you for contribution.

Here is some info about 737-800 currently in development.

This is aircraft, based on 737NG in FGAddon. When my version will be quite good, I'll move it to FGAddon too. All used in this aircraft is GPL.

With great help of Aleksandr Vavilin from github we have slightly changed cockpit (which better match real measurements now). I have taken Gijs PFD, hardly reworked it to realign all elements, using real PFD photos as reference. Also many thing has been rewritten, like lower compass, nice changing numbers on speed and altitude indications. Also I have inserted NavDisplay and custom upper EICAS display. Autopilot code has been taken from my 737-300.

Some screens:
Image
Boxes at AFDS, when modes are changed. Flight directors really work and shows how to fly. To press TOGA button - press 'd' button on keyboard.

Image
We have changed MCP to better represent Honeywell MCP, not Collins.

Image
After localizer capture with single autopilot coupled at the moment.

Aircraft still contain many bugs and errors, but still in development.

I will download for the third time this aircraft to see if the autopilot starts working.
In the two previous times I tried to use aircraft with the autopilot, had problems, and fell beak, and I could not even turn off the AP.
I'm using the version FG3.4.1
A beautiful aircraft, without doubt, I hope this problem is an error on my part.

At the moment I'm not on the computer that has the FG as soon as possible will download the 738 and describe step by step.
Flight several times the aircraft 733 with AP and do not see this type of behavior that occurs in 738, but as I wrote above can be any failure on my part.
I take this opportunity to congratulate him to be working this mid-sized aircraft, very good for landings in medium or short runways

I was doing something wrong, the AP worked after a few tries, the aircraft took to load and also there were some crashes on my computer, but I think it can be a problem on my PC which I am renovating this month with a new processor, new motherboard, new energy source and a new video card.

Appeared in the console these messages:

On my iMac everything freezes (with a Bus error: 10) whenever I attempt to engage the AP.

This is error about missing fonts for new CDU framework, presented in current git version. If you use 3.4, then you don't have it. But this messages do not break anything.

Sorry, I don't have Mac, or friend with Macs, so I don't know what is it and how to fix it. But seems strange, that in Windows and Linux aircraft works normally, but breaks in Mac.

It could be sound related?

I just did another attempt with --disable-sound.

Now the screen turns black when engaging the AP.

When you engage autopilot no sound should play. If you try to engage autopilot below 350 ft radio altitude, then it disengages automatically and autopilot disengage sound plays. Could you reproduce detailed step how do you try to enable autopilot?
