Flight Director set, Flight Director bars

Postby Lluc » Sun Apr 30, 2023 3:18 pm

Hello,

I'd like to modify the size and color of the flight director set located on the instrument panels of the different aircrafts, I mean the set of two triangular lines that match the shape of the airplane symbol on the primary flight display or sometimes the horizontal and vertical bars that do the same thing.

I can't find these gauges either in the game's file list or with FS Panel Studio.
Ingame Flight Director sets are purple or pink and rather small but usually they are yellow and a bit larger...

Thanks for your help.

Hi Lluc, which version of Flight Sim are you using? <<rAnd which particular aircraft are you referring to?

Hi Captain,

I'm still using FS2002, mainly with the Beech KingAir 350.

the file you are looking for is "Kingair.gau" in the games gauges folder.

Thank you, but I fear there is no gauge or no file inside this 'Kingair gauges' regarding the Flight Director bars.
Maybe there is some available add-on with a .bmp or . jpg extension... I'll try to find it. 8-)
Anyway, thanks for your help :)

the Kingair.gau is a compiled program like a .dll
most of the kingair gauges and there textures are compiled into the .gau format.
I dont think you can decompile it to make changes.
there might be a tool avail to decompile it but I never heard of one.

Yes, I think it's like the former *.cab files.
Thank you.
