nadlzfw Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 I tried to install the Tim Conrad North American OV-10 (filename OV-10A_V2) and find that the CAB file containing the gauges is apparently corrupt. Whenever I try to place it in the correct folder, or anything else, I get an error message. Any suggestions what I can do to make this file work, or somehow get a working CAB file? Thanks!

JSkorna Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Try to redownload the whole package again. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted March 25, 2018 Share Posted March 25, 2018 Did you also install the service pack OV-10A_pak1.zip? Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nadlzfw Posted March 25, 2018 Author Share Posted March 25, 2018 No...how would that help? It appears to have nothing to do with the panel or gauges. Nadlzfw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTweak Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 You didn't unpack/unzip the cab into the panel folder, did you? You just left it as a .cab file? Yes, if it comes in a .zip file you unzip THAT, but don't go another level and unpack the .cab file of all it's .xml and .bmp files? They are still inside the .cab file? Just checking. Some people do that... The SP for the OV-10 is there for a reason. I don't know what it does, but it won't hurt to install it according to it's Readme file, will it? It may even help some... Good luck! 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!

nadlzfw Posted March 27, 2018 Author Share Posted March 27, 2018 I tried a repeat download, same result. I did a google search for 'conrad ov-10' and picked a link to a different download on a different site. I picked the CAB out of that download and pasted it into my panel folder. The airplane loads and the cockpit seems fully populated with gauges, so this looks like success!!! I haven't flown it yet...I will finish my current trip, then head back to KCMH to pick up the Bronco and try it out. Thanks to all for your suggestions.
