Yesterday i have installed the F-16 by Kirk Olsson.
Everything´s fine so far,except the gauges.There´s no HUD showing and the Radarscreen stays all black.
Oh yes, i made a mistake somehow. But,the heck,what kind of mistake was it ???

It looks like chicken,smells like chicken,tastes like chicken,but when Chuck Norris says its Beef...then damnit...its Beef!!!

Heya Arnimon

Do you have the latest version (v4.06) of FSUIPC installed?

If not, go here and get it:

This download is for the base version which will enable some base features including radar screens. I gave a donation and received a registration code which unlocked more features.

If this doesn't work (or if you already have FSUIPC) then you may try to look at the gauges themselves. If the HUD and Radar Screen were initially designed for FS2004 using FS 98 base gauges they may not be compatible with FSX. When you select the aircraft in FSX do you get the compatibility message for the specific gauge? What happens when you click "Yes" to make this a trusted gauge?

Happy Flying -- And may your main wheels always touch down first!&&&&Dave F.
