Re: PANEL PROBLEMS

[emh8]

Otto,

I just installed the aircraft without any problems.

I'm not sure what's causing the problem - I tried in earnest to duplicate what you described.

I guess the only thing I can suggest is to make sure all of the gauges from the downloaded zip file are copied directly into the fs2002/Gauges directory.  Make sure they are not sitting in a subfolder within the Gauges folder.

Good luck! :-/

honestly I'm not trying to be difficult but,........I'm assuming you didn't have the same problem with the attitude indicator.
           
            I've  tried to drag all of the appropriate files to the panel file. This didn't change anything. Honestly, if you have time, take it step by step, I'm talking computer 101(with reference to the panel install).

I may have got this wrong OTTOL but you need to put the gauges thet come with the download into your GAUGES file (fs2k2's capitals not mine).

Ottol,go to your gauges folder in that plane and open it.
Manually copy those files into the FS2002 gauges folder.
I just downloaded the aircraft,installed it and had the same result as you. Copy those files individually and you should have a result.
I have a problem with this with a number of aircraft the worst being the Aerocommander with something over 450 files to copy.
Let us know how you get on!

Eureka, there's hope for me yet! Thanks to packercolinl, and  
all others who assisted. If I can repay the favor:you said to copy the files individually. I don't know if you said this because I said to keep it simple, or if that's the way you've been doing it, but the way I completed this was much quicker. With all of my available files displayed in the left pane(sp?), I double clicked on the gauges file of the aircraft in question to display the files in the right pane. I clicked the
curser to the right pane and hit Ctrl.A, to select all of the files. Then I dragged the files to the FS2002 gauges file using the right click button. This left me with a "Copy Here" Option.   This is much quicker.  :D
