I've downloaded 2 aircraft from simviation (T33 and F84)
I've followed the instructions, the planes can be selected and flown but the cockpit view has no working gauges, just black spaces.

Any Ideas? ???

Thanks

Hi Jonty. I assume these aircraft have their own panels. In this case the gauges should be included in a separate folder (or zipfile) named Gauges or similar. To install them open the folder/zipfile & paste the contents into the FS2002\Gauges folder. Don't overwrite existing files/folders if prompted.

They do have there own panels, but no folders with gauges or anything I recognise as that, I'd assumed they used another aircrafts gauges???

I got the full T-33 package here http://library.avsim.net/search.php?SearchTerm=t-33a.zip&CatID=fs2004ac

No problems with gauges.

BTW, this is one of the better freeware panels I've seen.

OK Jonty. I checked it out & the explanation is quite simple. This is a repaint of an original F-84F by Kazunori Ito. It has its own panel but the repainter forgot to include the gauges. I can't find the original aircraft posted at SimV. You can get it here. http://www.fsfreeware.com/dcd/FS2004/Aircrafts/index-25.html

Although it has 2 variations & includes the missing gauges the original is a smaller file than the repaint. ???
