Hi, I know this might have been mentioned before but in other posts i really didn't understand what the solution to this was but i basically cant
get FSpassengers to load fuel onto the plane,
I choose the amount of fuel in the fspax loader but once i start fspax and go to the FMC to load all the info in the fuel load hasn't changed, I
know that it can change because i was able to use it before but now all of a sudden the fuel load on the plane wont change.
can anyone please help me,
- thanks

You mean this didn't help you at all in your search?
"SOLUTION ON REFUEL PROBLEM ON PMDG PLANES (tested on MD-11):
1. After you load your plane then open the refuel PMDG panel and set the fuel you need.
2. Then start FSPassengers and setup a flight.
3. switch to windowed mode (alt-enter)
4. before takeoff open again the PMDG refuel panel and add a little more fuel but just a minimal more fuel. Then apply.
Then FSPassengers will complain about the refuel but from this time it will work without problem
So if you directly do a refuel on the ground before take off then fspassengers is able to work properly and complains only once.
5. now switch back to full screen mode (alt-enter)
STEP 3 and 5 maybe not required on some machines."
If that doesn't help you, I don't know what else will

Using the MD11 with FSPassengers is possible but the stations for this plane are :
0 - Cabin Fwd
1 - Cabin Mid
2 - Cabin Rear
3 - Cargo 1
4 - Cargo 2
5 - Cargo 3
On this complex aircraft, the FMC "knows" that the station 0 is the Cabin Fwd the station 1 is the Cabin Mid and so on.
So when FSPassengers replaces the stations with the 4 PAX stations and 2 cargo stations (FSP_STATION), the FMC thinks that the station 3 (starting
counting 0) is still the Cargo 1 and unfortunately it's not Cargo 1 anymore. So the FMC calculates CG totally out of range.
To use the aircraft in good conditions, disable the update weight and fuel in the "Flight Setting" with loading the plane.
Sorry for my english ...

This works with the PMDG 747X as well. Thanks for posting this. I have been searching for a solution to the crash to desktop.
