F-16 Viper panel

Postby alcest » Mon May 09, 2005 2:57 am

After installing outstanding Viper by Kirk Olsson my panel is not displayed correctly. Except Mach indicator and 4 push buttons (GPS, radio, map, com) I have pure black screen. Can anyone suggest some corrections? PS Similar problems also with F-14 Tomcat cockpit - non functioning indicators, they are just black.

Did you download and install the panel?

If not, (re-)read the 'Viper Setup Guide.doc' that comes with the Viper.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

As I recall that's the Eric Marciano F16 panel

If so, it will work if installed correctly.

That acft. can get confusing. Kirk's readme docs. are good, but lots of info.

Basically, you need the acft., which you got. Kirk includes a panel but he recommends gettings Eric Marciano's F-16 panel.

Download that panel, BUT use the panel.cfg that Kirk includes. If I am not mistaken, it is a different panel.cfg located in a seperate folder.

Still have problems after that is done, then come back and we will go from there.

Good luck pilot.

foooooooooo..............Many have had problems with that bird. Shame, because it is one of my favs. I have even fixed up my panel, redid some of the effects, different afterburners and love it.

Several pilots have emailed me I have helped them get that bird installed, with my effects or without, panel and got their radar working when they were having problems with that.

Feel free to email me, or we can work from here if you or alcest still need help.

It's too great an acft. to not have in my lowly opinion!   ;D
