Hi all,

   I have down loaded some of the Posky 737's with the new VC. the ones that come with only one VC view seem to work fine, but the ones that come with multi VC views don't work.  The radios can be changed, and a few switches on the O/H will work, but nothing else will.

   Has anybody else have this problem?  Can anyone help  Sad

Most all the 737 packages that have the multi view VC, Main, co-pilot overhead and so on.  The ones that have just the main view work.  The Sun country 737 vc works, but the flordia paint one dosn't.

Hi

By 'VC' most people mean the virtual cockpit - loads up by default or press F9 - you can pan around the VC with your joystick hat. There is no 'one vc view'. You can also move around in your VC using combinations of Ctrl/shift  .. Back space/return keys (see controls (Options - Settings - Controls) in your FSX menu)

Multi View usually refers to the 2d panel (press F10 for the 2d panel) . It could be that you mean that the alternative 'views' in the 2d panel do not have clickable switches - this is because the other views in the 2d panel are simple images (usually).

If you want to look around and still be able to click switches and move controls - just use the VC (F9)

I just tested the Florida One 737 VC and I am able to click switches inside the VC. See photo ... (once again thank you to Alrot for this wonderful 737 VC!!)

My 737 loads and the VC pops up.  If you hit the "a" key it goes from pilot view, co-pilot view, o/h and so on.  Do this with the default 737 and you will see what I mean.

If you look at my previous post you will see that the Sun Country VC comes up, and when you hit the "A" key it goes to the 2d panel.  This panel works great.  The flordia one the VC pops up, but when you hit the "A" key it will go to co-pilot view hit the "A" key again it will go to O/H and so on.  This panel dosn't work.  All of the 737's that have multi VC views don't work for me.  The ones that have just one VC view and the "A" key takes you to the 2d panel work fine.  Huh

That's pretty much the way it works.  Some aircraft only have the one VC view from the pilot's seat.  Some have multiple VC views and will shift to other views, like the co-pilots, passenger cabin, and so on.  If you are sure an aircraft is supposed to have multiple VC views, check the panel.cfg to make sure tye are not commented out with double slashes in front of the [Vcockpit.XX].
