  1. I have to agree the library is nowhere near as clear and easy to use as previously. why change things for the worse? I will definitely not be resuming my current subscription to this site.
  2. No longer available, although you may find some second-hand on Ebay. I picked up a couple last year that way.
  3. Glad you got it resolved - all the best.
  4. I had the same problem. Look inside the texture folder and you will find two large 16Mb files: Os748Fbody_l_t.bmp and Os748Fbody_r_t.bmp. Use a utility like DXTBMP to reduce those files down to 1024 x 1024 size and re-save them. This seemed to work for me. Those files are too big for FS2004 (2048 x 2048). Good luck.
  5. I think the best way is to check out HJG support forums, where all the aircraft options are explained: https://tonymadgehjg.proboards.com/board/2/boeing-support-forum
  6. Same here - library download does not seem to be working.
  7. You need to replace the file "JF_Duchess_Reflect.bmp" with a file that is totally black, with a black Alpha channel. Backup the original file.
  8. I really don't think I can offer any more help here. It works fine on my system, but something is obviously not working on yours. I have no experience with multi-monitor setups, so I wonder if that has anything to do with it?
  9. Hi again, I am puzzled by your experience, so I downloaded the HUD gauge and installed it in the default Cessna 172. I tried three different optons, as per the attached images and the panel.cfg excerpts below: Image1 - default centre position as per Bob Kellogg's installation instructions //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window06] Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=202,168 window_size_ratio=1.000 position=7 visible=0 ident=304 window_size= 0.316, 0.350 window_pos= 0.330, 0.020 gauge00=gaHud29!hud2A9, 0,0,200,166 //-------------------------------------------------------- Image2 - moved the HUD over to the left //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window06] Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=202,168 window_size_ratio=1.000 position=7 visible=0 ident=304 window_size= 0.316, 0.350 window_pos= 0.050, 0.020 gauge00=gaHud29!hud2A9, 0,0,200,166 //-------------------------------------------------------- Image2 - moved left and downward //-------------------------------------------------------- [Window06] Background_color=0,0,0 size_mm=202,168 window_size_ratio=1.000 position=7 visible=0 ident=304 window_size= 0.316, 0.350 window_pos= 0.050, 0.390 gauge00=gaHud29!hud2A9, 0,0,200,166 //-------------------------------------------------------- As you can see the HUD is easily moved to different positions on my system. Sorry I have no idea why it is not working for you.
  10. Hi there, If you want to display the HUD window in the bottom left corner of the screen, then you would want the x value to be very low, and the y value to be higher. A rough guess, from your image, would be: window_pos = 0.10 , 0.50 This would put the top left corner of the gauge window close to the left edge (1/10th of the total screen width), and half way down from the top (.50 = 1/2 the screen height) I hope this makes sense. I am not sure how FS Panel Studio could have any affect on this gauge - I have used it for many years with no problems.
  11. In the panel.cfg your line... window_pos=0.33, 0.02 ...sets the position of the gauge on the screen. These x/y values are fractions of 1.0, so 0.33 means about one-third of the way across from the left side. The 0.02 would mean a very short distance from the top of the screen. (Remember that the top left corner of the screen is 0,0) This sort of thing is much easier if you use a program like FS Panel Studio. Good luck!
  12. On my version (2.2 I think), you need to use the 'spoiler' command to extend and retract the landing lights. I have the spoilers linked to a lever on my CH Yoke, so it is easy to operate.
  13. Excellent news! Cheers - and thanks for all the great scenery.
  14. You need to change the aircraft.cfg [contact points]. Usually the first entry is the nose/tail wheel. I have pasted an entry for a C-185 taildragger: point.0 = 1, -22.35, 0.0, -0.71, 2500, 0, 0.42, 60, 0.15, 2.5, 0.6, 0, 0, 0 I think the third parameter (-0.71) is the vertical distance to alter for the wheel height. Good luck. Graeme
  15. On my system, Eaglesoft manuals go into "C:\Eaglesoft Development Group\ESDG Documentation", and in there is a folder "ESTC Documents" with the Twin Comanche stuff. I'm pretty sure that is a default setting, as I don't recall ever changing it.
