Citation 500 Extra Radio Panel and....

[simonsimple]

Hi
When I clik Fly Now I get aview of the runway and a Radio Panel, if I goto F9 the whole panel is there + an extra Radio panel. The same happens with F10, I move the panel off to one side to fly. If I change views, when I come back the Radio panel has gone???
ALso when I move my mouse quickly across the screen it goes Black for 2-3 seconds. Any ideas of a cure would be most welcome.
Win Vista
3GB ram
Nvidia 8500

HI

I made that plane you're talking about , yes Its a small and tiny issue that
can be fix in the panel.cfg , So far No buddy else has complain about it yet exept you ,I'm aware of it, right click on the radio in the 2d panel and Close the window will fix it .
and about the black thing I don't know what it is, even my $20 dollars video card doesn't do that,  neither has tell me that..and it has being tested in many machines..

and So far the biggest issue that it has ,is for machines without video cards ,(onboard video) because IT has images 2048 x 2048 DDS and this plane requires more ,at least a cheap AGP video card...this is a real issue for me..

are you aware that this is a FSX-SDK model ,that it comes with DDS textures instead Bmp ?, there are not many FREEWARES in all the web like this?  

See , It a freeware ,No buddy paid to me for this job ,and Its my first FSX-SDK that I made it up for you as a gift , sorry about this ..

Alejandro Rojas

EDIT: By The way ,I envy you my friend ,I wish I could have, more than 1gb RAM like you or have a better video card and Not a agp 6200 or something better than a Pentium 4


unfortunately I don't have money to buy these things..

Hi Hagar,
I tried to do as you suggest  but I can only open the panel.cfg in Word pad. and that won't let me make changes.
I don't know how to get it to open in Note pad, I do have the permissions and have tried alsorts of ways but to no avail.

Hi ALROT
Thanks for your wonderful aircraft, it is absolutely superb, especially for a first. The co-pilot is great and the way the eyes move is stunning. CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!
We will overcome the small glitch.

Alrot,

I wanted to let you know that I downloaded the plane and flew it on May 13th, everything worked great for me, great job and thanks!  This must have taken you a lot of hours to complete.

Hi Simon. Right-click on the Panel.cfg icon & select Open With from the menu. Then select Notepad from the list of programs.

It should be possible to do this in Wordpad. I note you have Windows Vista. In this case it might help to paste Panel.cfg to your desktop before editing it. Then save changes & paste it back again.  

Please take a backup copy before attempting to edit files.

Hi Hagar
Thanks for that, it did work putting the file to desktop.

PS thanks for calling me simon.
