johankotze Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Is there a panel download for landing, taxi, strobe etc. I need it to be a separate panel and not part of the main window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 There are several whole aircraft in the file library that have a popup panel for the electrical things like battery, generators, and lights. If you are interested, I'll look through my assortment and see if I can find the download. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

mrzippy Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 2 quick sample of what I found. One is a Volpar and the other is a C-46A. Both are older prop planes. Not sure the type of aircraft or how much stuff you want on the popups. Volpar C-46a Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johankotze Posted December 4, 2016 Author Share Posted December 4, 2016 Thanks for the reply. I need for a Boeing 737-800 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Thanks for the reply. I need for a Boeing 737-800 I would have to say "Good luck with that!" Out of all of the aircraft, both default and 3rd party, the only one that I could find that could be used for a jet aircraft would be the popup panel called "Electrical" in the Lear45 panel. basically battery, generator, pitot tube, and all of the light switches. Any special reason for this light-switch popup panel? Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Robinson Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I made myself some light panels a while back, do either of these interest you? http://www.cat-tamer.com/flightsim/atchmnts/lgt_pnl01.jpg Here is the .cab file: http://www.cat-tamer.com/flightsim/atchmnts/lgt_pnl.CAB Assuming 1920x1080 screen resolution here are your [WindowXX] entries: Top panel (rocker switches) //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window01] Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=165,138 position=8 visible=0 ident=338 window_pos= 0.013, 0.539 window_size= 0.0859, 0.128 no_luminous=1 gauge00=lgt_pnl!light_panel_v2_rockers, 0,0,165,138 Middle panel (buttons) //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window01] Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=173,118 position=8 visible=0 ident=338 window_pos= 0.013, 0.539 window_size= 0.09, 0.1092 no_luminous=1 gauge00=lgt_pnl!light_panel_v2_buttons, 0,0,173,118 Bottom panel (old style buttons, this one works in FS9 (and FSX), the two above won't) //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window01] Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=240,120 position=8 visible=0 ident=338 window_pos= 0.013, 0.539 window_size= 0.125, 0.111 no_luminous=1 gauge00=lgt_pnl!light_panel, 0,0,240,120 Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 I have multiple screens and want a window that will stay open. Can you point me in the direction of the Lear45 It's one of your many default aircraft. I like Jim's light panels. Looks exactly like what you wanted. Thanks Jim! I saved your .cab and panel .cfgs. If I pass them along at a later date, you will get full acknowledgement for them. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Robinson Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Cool Zip, that'll save me writing the readme! :D There's also a simicon in the .cab that opens window ident=338 BTW, forgot to mention that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhantomTweak Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Mr. Johan, sir, I found a file in the library. Named PanelMania_v01.zip. It has a very nice push-button/lighted ON panel included and very easy to install alone. Actually, it's got a set of warning lights included, so may be more than you want, but it's still very nice. Here is a picture: Jim, Great panels! Thanks for posting them. I saved them off myself for use later. I won't publish or repost, just for myself. Thank you for them :) Pat☺ [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Had a thought...then there was the smell of something burning, and sparks, and then a big fire, and then the lights went out! I guess I better not do that again! Sgt, USMC, 10 years proud service, Inactive reserve now :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Robinson Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 You guys can do whatever you want with them, they're an update for a gauge I made 7 yrs ago for someone in the FS9 forum, consider them public domain. https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?217804-Default-Learjet-45-Light-problem From that thread: It has a switch I believe, for every type of light FS9 supports. That was BS BTW, I didn't know about cabin lights at that time, lol. I added them in the v2. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcbarend Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Hi Jim, Looks great. And grafically much better then what I was going to propose, based on a simular addon I made many years ago myself. I just hope the OP (or other readers) realise that such a generic addon only implement the control of light switches as FS knows/defines them. Because in many default or addon aircraft, these light switches: - Are not visually modelled fully. - Are not visually modelled as intended as their name suggests. - Are auto-controlled for other applications, like smoke effects and such. I'm sure you know what I mean .... But that said: again, great addon. Best regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhantomTweak Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 panelm01.zip ??? Cheers, It's a total and coplete set of gauges. Essentially, a handy file with a bunch of gauges all assembled together. But included is the lighting panel I included a picture of. You can "pluck it out" and add it to a plane as a pop-up lighting panel. Does that help?

tgon Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I'm not the OP but thanks Jim, my B738 now sports a new lights panel! Best, Phil https://www.facebook.com/groups/UKdirect/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mabe5454 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 I looked for this "PanelMania_v01.zip" in the library and came back as Nope = Nothing so I tried PanelMania and came back as "panelm01.zip". So that was my question. Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
