odd view issue

Postby coreservers » Sat May 30, 2009 10:04 am

Hi there
I recently installed the freeware OV10. However now when I select spot or locked spot view I get a top half image of the plane exterior, but the instrument panel remains on the bottom half. this is now happening on all planes I select.

Anyone got a solution?

It seems to me that you have installed the FS9 version of that plane.
Piglet has made a FSX SP2 native version for this plane, you shouldn't have any display issue with it.

Hmmm.....sounds like you've installed the FS2004 model. I've had similar problems, so I'd look for a version which is exclusively FSX!!!

are you starting out with the cockpit view then going to the spot view? if that is the case i have found awhile ago that if you open up the CFG file for the panel and scroll down to see if it has "render_3d_window=1" change the 1 to a zero and click save....that should work. i always check this CFG file when i load new planes.

hope this helps

I manage to fix my'n by adjusting the 'SIZE_Y=';

[Default View]
X=0
Y=0
SIZE_X=8191
SIZE_Y=2772

in the bottom of the panel.cfg to my needs, it worked a treat
