BTW, all of the Eaglesoft a/c have ported over to FSX with absolutely ZERO problems, so apparently we at least know what we're doing...  :D 8)

This is a limited bug with some 3rd party aircraft. I happened on it by accident & suspect the panels were originally created for CFS2. The FS2002/4 default panels don't have that render_3d_window=1 CFG entry. Changing the value to 0 fixes it.

Hmm I always thouht the render_3d_window was so the 2d panel was included in the black out/red out ect function but as I came from cfs2 I kinda carried that over with me to fs9
so not sure if its the same in fs9.At least its an easy fix

Hi Wozza. That render_3D_window= line originally came from CFS1. (I mention it in my Panel Clinic which was the first tute I ever had posted on this site many years ago.) It's not included in the default panels with any version of FS. AFAIK

Just to demonstrate what we're talking about here.

Hey Hagar(spelt it right that time :) )
I just did some tests to make sure I wasnt loosing my long term memory :)
If you have the render_3d window in FS9 the 2d panel blacks out when you pull high Gs,if not then the 2d panel stays visable no matter what G's you pull so its still a viable entry in fs9
the next fun one for fs9 to fsx conver is that untextured parts turn black and transperent material thats not textured go bye bye still working on that one :D
