Graphic problem with 747-8 model(s)

Small introduction
Hello all.
I'am new member. In the beginning let me say that I really appreciate your work on this site and I would like say big THANK YOU to all people who creates these awesome plane models/airport addons/mesh/cities etc.

My favourites civil aircrafts are Boeing 777-300; 787; and 747-8 so I started to download these models first. In every B 777-300 I had problems with the B777serv.dll or how is the file called, dont remember. I tried everything what I have found on the internet but nothing helped. So I used whole panel folder from 787 Boeing and it worked. Then I started to trying 747-8 models (Lufthansa, AF, Qantas).

Core problem

I have problem with the (I dont know how to call it) with the effects vehicles which are added to airplane models (baggage cars, stairs, some cargo vehicle, catering, plane maintenance etc.) I dont know how to call these vehicles but sometimes when I take off I have all vehicles attached to my aircraft and you wont believe it that it influences the whole take off process.
I tried to look in options for shortcuts but I was not succesfull.
I'am using SHIFT + E (main door open) SHIFT + E + 2 (cargo door open) If I try all other combination nothing will happen. But when I'am taking off and use the flyby or nearest tower camera I see how another vehicles are attached to my aircraft and it makes the take off more difficult.

Here you can see it in the pictures I have taken.

If you could help me with this I will be very thankful. If is it some hotkey or some folder. Like I wrote above when I'am parked I dont see these vehicles and when I take off they suddenly appears attached to my aircraft.

Thank you

Hello
1.)
install the original Panel
in the Panel folder must be a gauge named Pky_util
this gauge animates all You need

2.) open the Panel.cfg
edit the window with the ident "Posky Utility"

change
visible=0
to
visibel=1

now You can see a keybord with buttons (I hope ) :D
from projekt open sky


best regards

Thanks for the reply. I found that keyboards with buttons but even when everything is off or closed I get the gourmet trucks (catering) attached to the aircraft. I also noticed one weired thing.
I took off from airfield no problems I wanted to check the replay so paused the game and went to the instant replay menu, watched replay and my 2nd engine was on fire (dont know why). So I returned back from replay to my paused game and the engine on fire "transferred" to the game from replay :D

Sometimes really weird things happen.

If I am correct the reason why you are seeing the service vehicles while taxiing is that you have put them in the wrong folder My guess is that they are in the panel folder or aircraft folder. They belong in the effects folder I believe I am at work now and can not check this but think I am correct, but not 100% sure.

I had the effects folder in the main directory of this aircraft and I already moved it to the main folder "effects" but It did not help. And I saw this happening in certain altitude nearby airport it is happening usually after take off or during landing process.
