The Cessna 206 and missing gauges...

Postby jordonj » Sun Sep 05, 2004 10:52 am

I recently downloaded the excellent Cessna 206, but I noticed some gauges missing in the VC... here are some illustrations (the backlighting really shows them up)...

And the compass is missing as well...

I suspect that either I need to rename some files or get some...suggestions? ???

Hey guy, did you get your french version installed?  I got it in and it's complete.  I just can't pop the hood like Omag showed in his pic.  I know it's suppossed to be....Shift - E - 2,  But I don't know how to hit the keys in what order, or if I have to hold down or what.  It just keeps opening the main doors and at the same time, bringing up additional guages, switches, or GPS panel sections. ???  I'm stumped.  Any suggestions?  Thanks!

I found a partial solution and posted it here...

I had to open the panel.cfg file, and edit the missing gauges to the default Cessna gauges ;)

Did you manage to get the compass to show?  If so, what line did you add?
