Missing gauges

Postby JJH » Tue Jan 13, 2009 12:17 pm

I downloaded the following aircraft:
Vintage Section, Page 28 - FS2004 D-Day Spitfire MkVIII TGR adapted by Murray Pavy.

The instrument panel contains no gauges. The description of the download indicates an alternative panel is available, but the page linked to this contains nothing related to the Spitfire. I found Spitfire panels available in the CFS2 panel section, Pages 4 & 5 by Kromberg and Griffin respectively. Does anyone know if these will work in FS2004? Or is there a compatible panel available elsewhere? :-?

I just downloaded it, and sure enough the gauges are missing. The link needs to be updated, but I believe the panel the author is refering to can be found here.

Found and downloaded it. In the cockpit view, it seems to contain 3 different forward views: direct forward, left forward (as if you were leaning out the cockpit to the left) and right forward (opposite sight lines as left forward). In my Cockpit view, however, I see all three views overlapping one another! I don't know enough about the panel cfg file to determine what is causing this. Can you help?

False alarm!. Somehow I fixed it, but not exactly sure how I did it!. I'll have to study it some. :) :)
