I just installed the F-14 Tomcat. Nice plane, but I do not see any guages...

How do I fix the problem ?

description=The F-14 Tomcat is a supersonic, twin-engine, variable sweep wing, two-place fighter signed to attack and destroy enemy aircraft at night and in all weather conditions. The F-14 can track up to 24 targets simultaneously with its advanced weapons control system and attack six with Phoenix AIM-54A missiles while continuing to scan the airspace. Armament also ncludes a mix of other air intercept missiles, rockets and bombs.

You should have gotten the gauges in a seperate folder within the download. Looking at the panel.cfg, some of the gauges are default FS9 gauges, BUT, you should have two folders, one  titled Tomcat with several gauges inside and one folder TomcatVC with gauges inside of it. The first is for your normal acft. panel and the second is for the Virtual Cockpit. These two folders should be placed inside your FS9 Gauges folder intact. DO NOT take the gauges out of those folders and place them directly into the FS9 gauges folder.

You panel should display the gauges then.

IF you already dumped them into your FS9 Gauges folder, then just erase any line in the panel.cfg that says Tomcat/ and TomcatVC, leaving just the gauges name. Example, you would take the gauge:
gauge00=Tomcat/f14toggle!Panel.toggle (numbers) and remove the Tomcat/ thus leaving:
gauge00=f14toggle!Panel.toggle (numbers)

Do this for all the gauges that have the Tomcat/ or TomcatVC/ entry. This is ONLY if you have already dumped all the gauges that came with the download directly into the Main FS9 Gauges Folder.

Hope you get it worked out. Good luck.

So that's why my gauges wouldn't show up....... Thanks!

I have been flying the F-14 for a while now plus two of
the new "carrier panels".  On one of them I get an
FSUIPC warning when I switch to the TCAS radar view.

After I hit OK on the warning the radar seems to work fine.
Before you ask I have the latest version of FSUIPC right
off of Peter's site.

Anyone else have this problem?

Hi Fireman

Nope....only when I bring up the F-14 "backseat" cockpit view. I "think" it's the TCAS radar but the FSUIPC log doesn't seem to tel me much as to what gauge is causing the warning.
