Hello all,
I have not logged in for a long time, but recently purchased flight simulator X after having used FS4 for years. to complete the choice of airplanes in my game, I downloaded a few items for Simviation : the Volpar and a Huey and also the Legacy 2000. All these birds are updated by their creators from FS4 to FSX. It look like the plane downloaded are there but all the textures and in some case the gauges are gone. Is there something I missed in the installation ?
Thank in advance for your help. [smiley=dankk2.gif]

I think you mean FS9. If you have DirectX Preview enabled in FSX Display Settings try disabling it.

Hello Hagar,
As far as I remember, the direct X preview is turned off, but I will double check. Sorry for this late answer, but I am not an internet addict and was away from my keyboard for the week-end !
regards,

If that doesn't fix it please post again.
Just noticed this:
in some case the gauges are gone
It sounds like you're missing some gauges. Make sure you installed them correctly. If they still don't work post links to where I can download the aircraft to check them out.

Hello Hagar,
I will have to double check for the links (I am not an internet expert). all I can say for know is that I found this Volpar in the FSX "propellers" directory, and as far as I know there is only one choice with 2 sets of textures. The Gauges file is called RobinsonR22.cab and whould be copied in the gauges directory of FSX (which I did). About the aircraft body textures, t hey are now visible after disablingthe Dircet X 10 preview, thank !
Jeff.

Hi Jeff. I suspect you mean this one.
http://simviation.com/1/search?submit=1&keywords=Nor-CalBeechcraftModel18Volpar.zip&categoryId=&filename=YI downloaded the file to check it out & the missing gauges are FS9 defaults. If you still have FS9 you can copy them from the CD. Note that it's an FS9 model 'updated' by a third party for FSX so please don't blame the original author.

Glad we fixed that anyway.

hello Hagar,
you are right about your guessing for the Volpar. I will check on the FS9 CD's for the gauges files.

Here's a list of the gauges you need. You should find most of them in MSGAME3.CAB on FS2004 CD-2.
Cessna182rg.gau
Cessna208.gau
Extra-300.gau
Kingair_Radio.gau
Robinson_R22.cab
