I'm Trying To Add A "Stick Hand" To The Stock CFS2 Corsair But I Get This   The Bottom 3 Gauges Dissapear, Can You Help Me?

It's been a long time & this is only a suggestion. If you're using CfgEdit click Gauge on the menu & make sure the "Draw Gauges Transparently" option is checked. Tell me if this does the trick.

Thanks Hagar, I'll Let You Know; I'm New To CFG Edit But I Know What Your Talkin' About

I checked it out for you. The transparency on some older gauges doesn't work on 3D panels. They will work best on a separate 2D pop-up window like the default engine controls.

For the Corsair open Panel.cfg in Notepad. Add a new window to the Window Titles at the top.

[Window Titles]
Window00=%window_title_00%
Window01=%window_title_01%
Window02=Stick

Now paste this below the [Window.01] entry. (Just above the [Vcockpit01] header.)

[Window02]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=200,200
windowsize_ratio=1.00  
position=7
visible=1
ident=30

gauge00=STIKHAND, 25,70,150

Exit Notepad saving changes. This is what you should end up with.

Thanks Hagar,

I Tried The "Gauges Transparent" Button And Didnt Work.
But I'll Try That

I noticed that you're using a slightly different gauge. If it has a different file name simply change the name in the Panel.cfg entry.

gauge00=name ofyour gauge, 25,70,150

I Knew What You Meant

I Like My Stick Better Its More WWII "Stylish"

I Got It From The "P-40E Front Panel" Either Here Or at Netwings
