Missing Gauges

[stinger2k2]

Hi all,

I recently uploaded an aircraft for free download.The panel
and VC panel used default gauges from the DC3,comet and Baron.
It seems that people who have downloaded my aircraft do not see
the default gauges on my panels even though they are visible on my
system. One downloader asked for my help and in the end to clear the
problem I emailed him a copy of the dc3.cab, Beech_Baron.cab and others that were missing. I thought originally it was a problem with his system because I had not recieved similar feedback from any other downloaders but at the weekend I tried installing my aicraft on my father-in-laws FS2004 with the same result.

Any clues on this?

I constructed my 2d panel using FS Panel Studio.

Here is a copy of my panel.cfg

Thanks for any help.

Simple solution... All those .CAB files are in the default a/c's \panel folder in a "default installation..."

Simply look in each of the relevant \panel folders and copy-paste or move the xxx.CAB files to the FS9 \gauges folder so they will be available for all panels.
