No gauges

Postby homebrewer » Fri Oct 17, 2008 11:39 pm

Downloaded and installed the Extra 300L from FS2002 Props, Page 46. Flies OK, but no gauges. Any ideas?

There is no gauges folder with this a/c so some renaming of the gauges in the panel.cfg is needed to get it to use the default ones.. probably because it is made for fs2002......this makes it look like this......

...The one suggested by GB1 has it's own gauges hence no problem there.

Yes, please, commoner. Please email the file for the gauges for the 300L. Now, I just slide each gauge you send into the Gauges folder under the master folder of Aircraft, and away she goes?

You still have my email address? I'll PM it again in a few minutes. My pork spareribs are ready. Been in the crockpot all day...

No need for more gauges you should already have them from the default 300.........just swap the panel.cfg for the one I sent.....commoner ;)

If for some unknown reason this doesn't work for you, I suggest getting the one GB1 spoke of, it uses the same panel but comes with it's own gauges..... :)
