drsmart Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 I recently downloaded a 747 from a site not used before but now when i open up any 747 in FS9 it is just a .bmp of the cockpit with no gauges but in the View menu all the views are still present i.e. overhead, throttles etc I did a search of FS9 for everything contains 747 and deleted but when i reinstall 747 from flight sim site its is still the same Is there a hidden generic file somewhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 It sounds like this download contained a Gauges folder that was added to your Sim's Gauge folder overwriting the original files. What download and what site did it come from? Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jgf Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Check the panel.cfg for what gauges are used and see if they are present. If the download contained a gauges folder the contents of that folder should be copied to the FS9 gauges folder (it is easy to forget and copy the folder itself, so there is "gauges/gauges", which FS9 will ignore).

drsmart Posted November 2, 2015 Author Share Posted November 2, 2015 Many thanks for all the replies except the rude one. I had never used this site before so can't remember it as I always buy or download from the reputable sites I will try the suggestions made which make sense Thanks for prompt replies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
