About This File
FS2004 Panel--Douglas DC-3. A photoreal, modern, re-built panel (shareware). This panel is made from a photograph of a modern day DC3. It features a unique 1950's-1960's style radio array mounted on top of the panel. The default King Air radio gauge has been modified to work with it. The full version includes all working gauges, including VOR, ILS, the compact King Air autopilot, a repositioned GPS, and the default DC3 pop up windows for electrical, engine, and other controls. This shareware version, for evaluation purposes, is limited in gauge functions, color blending, and visibility. It also includes the right and forward-right cockpit views for evaluation of the full set of seven inside views. The full set includes cargo and passenger options, from two different DC3 aircraft in use today (see screen shots). Also included as freeware, is the modified DC3 .mdl file by Clive Ryan (DC3_MDL.ZIP), with permission. This will switch off the default virtual cockpit, so it does not conflict with the internal views. Or, if you know how to hex edit, you can modify your own default .mdl file, by following Clive's tutorial, which is included (only recommended for advanced users). You can also install only the panel, without using the modified mdl file. Includes choice of 1024x768 or 800x600 image resolution sets. By Will Fisher.
