Hello all, I'm new and have a couple of questions.  I have searched and have found no results.  

1.  On the Concorde I downloaded everything is black in the virtual cockpit except the instruments.  I cant even see out of the windshield.  is there a solution for this?  I downloaded the one with the 5 different skins for it.

2.  I looked at the best settingd for the graphics cards, but what would be the best setting for two Nvidia Geforce 8800GT cards in SLI mode?

3. Is there a virtual cockpit fir the T144 (Concordski??)

Thanks in advance!

Welcome to SimV... :)

You probably downloaded an older aircraft model that isn't fully compatible with FSX/SP2. I don't use SLI mode, so i'm not sure about that. As for the Concordski, if a model doesn't have a VC, there is no way to add one

Hi. ;)

See if this helps with the Concorde. http://www.simviation.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1212110462

2.  I looked at the best settingd for the graphics cards, but what would be the best setting for two Nvidia Geforce 8800GT cards in SLI mode?

Perhaps someone else can answer this one.

3. Is there a virtual cockpit fir the T144 (Concordski??)

You mean Tu 144. If you have questions about specific files it helps to know which ones you're talking about. According to the file description the one posted on this page doesn't have a VC. http://www.simviation.com/fsxjets12.htm

Thx for the welcome and help.  I'll just have to play around with the Concorde.  http://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads-file-1788-details.html  That's the Concorde I downloaded,  I found the glass texture but it was in the Air France skin file and not AA.  If anyone can help me with that, that would be great. I have a feeling I'm getting in over my head, haha.
