i just downloaded the wradar2.zip gauge and i don't know how to put it into my airplanes do i just put the gau. into the gauges file? please help

You have to put the .gau file into your fs2002\gauges folder then modify the panel.cfg file for every aircraft that you want to display the gauge.

If you're not familiar with panel editing I'd suggest getting cfgEdit (free) and checking the Scenery and Panel Design Forum.

BTW, most of these weather gauges don't work, that is, they will show you some clouds and things but they have nothing to do with what's really out there.

I like the way you tell him that they dont always work after you tell him to modify evry panel and download cfg editor !  

That's nothing. Telling someone something like it only working on fresh installations FS9 would be cruel

Sorry but my theory of answering tech questions is:

1. Answer the question that has been asked.

2. Explain other options.

pilotguy191 asked a specific question.  I answered it and explained that maybe the answer to his specific question was not the most desirable answer.
