31448 Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 Just reinstalled FSX on my external HD for another go. Needing an North American T-6/SNJ I installed Warwick Carter and David Eckert's FSX T-6G Texan "Civilian Restoration" with 6TEXMOD.ZIP and FSDS_T-6UPDATE.ZIP. All is well with the exception of the gauges not showing in the panel. I tried putting the cab file into the root gauges folder but to no avail. Would anyone familiar with FSX know what I might be doing wrong? Thanks. Steve W
mrzippy Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 Could not find 6TEXMOD.ZIP Do you have a link? The VC panel shows fine and dandy, so would like to see what that .zip has in it! Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

mrzippy Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 Here it is MZ https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fslib.php?searchid=70650422 No search results! I'll try that .zip name in the library search again! OK, after rubbing my last 2 grey matter brains cells together I did this: T6TEXMOD.ZIP Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

mrzippy Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 Hi Rick! Yep, that is the original download, which I thought worked pretty good. The update and texture update just made things a bit better. 31448....Installed the texture mods and all looks goodly! What FSX are you using? With Acceleration or with SP1 and SP2? The SPs are needed. Also it's has a VC only...no 2D cockpit. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!
31448 Posted April 18, 2019 Author Posted April 18, 2019 Well here is where I really show how much I don't know about FSX. I've been a FS2004 user since day one and thought I'd give FSX a shot again. So, I really don't know what my type is. Not the latest for sure, but the original game, if that helps. Steve W

mrzippy Posted April 18, 2019 Posted April 18, 2019 Just two. Then you have either FSX Standard or Deluxe. You need to install the SPS. SP1 https://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads/files/1950/microsoft-flight-simulator-x-service-pack-1/ SP2 make sure you choose English! https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8986 Run the .exe for SP1 and let it do it's thing. Then start FSX and start a flight just to make sure everything is OK. The exit. Now run the .exe for SP2 and do the same thing. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!
31448 Posted April 18, 2019 Author Posted April 18, 2019 Oh man, thanks Zippy. I'll D/L and get back later. And, thanks again. Steve W
