I downloaded the freeware Iris f14 v1.06
I realized that I couldn't fly with a just a HUD, so I decided to use a 2d panel by Dino. From this f-14 here http://www.simviation.com/simviation/st ... =64&page=9
Situation: I wanted to keep the IRIS VC, but use the 2d panel that Dino made.
I sort of succeed in this, but here is the problem....
I CAN'T SEE OUTSIDE THE 2D PANEL, the VC works fine
So any ideas?
EDIT:
Here is the Panel config which the plane is using
