I recently downloaded a panel (built by FS Panel Studio) for a Beech 1900D (Mike Stone model). The panel cfg included the VCockpit specs but the VC doesnt show up when I go to fly the aircraft. I've compared the 1900D panel cfg to the KingAir cfg and the only noticable differences are:

1900D contains:

[VIEWS]
VIEW_FORWARD_WINDOWS=MAIN_PANEL,GPS_PANEL,RAD

IOS,20,50,225,330,450,
480,500,560,600,650,700,10004,10005


VIEW_FORWARD_DIR=2.000, 0.000, 0.000

whereas the KingA doesn't have a [Views] section.

The 1900D shows:
[Vcockpit01]
Background_color=0,0,0
size_mm=1024,1024
pixel_size=1024,1024
Visible=0
texture=$panL

the KingAir shows:
[VCockpit01]
size_mm=512,512
pixel_size=512,512
texture=$Kingair_1
background_color=0,0,0

I thought the Visible=0 in the 1900D might be the culprit but I changed it to Visible=1 (no effect) and then deleted it altogether (also no effect). So I changed it back to the original (still nothing). I can't seem to find any magical switch to turn the 1900D VC on. So can anyone offer some advice? Do you need more info?

Thanks for the info Shane.
