mrzippy Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 One quick trick I started doing was when I got a download that included a "gauges" folder, I transferred all of those gauges to the aircraft's panel folder. That way if I didn't like the aircraft and deleted it, the gauges went with it. That should help get rid of the unnecessary gauges from now on! :D Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

lnuss Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 That should help get rid of the unnecessary gauges from now on! But has the disadvantage that when you have more than one aircraft using the same gauge, you also have multiple copies of the gauge. So care is needed. Larry N.

ac103010 Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 I've tried running gaugeexp.zip but get an error message saying I need to instal Net Framework ver 1.1.4322. I follow the on screen instructions and downlaod and instal the version indicated in the downloads, but keep getting the same error message.

miatamariner Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Very true when deleting things you think you may not need again! ;) Another thing to be aware of is if you use FS Panel Studio to build or modify panels and you want to add a gauge, FS Panel Studio will only access gauges that are in your FSX main Gauge folder, not from gauges that are in an aircraft's panel folder.

Allan There are 32bit and 64bit versions of the .Net framework packages, check that you're installing the right one for your system. There's no need to uninstall the one you've already installed, it won't harm anything. Tim Wright "The older I get, the better I was..."

CRJ_simpilot Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I always used FS Panel Studio for cockpit editing. Try that. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk?

miatamariner Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) Yes it will. In the gauges menu, click on the three dots at the top of the list. I clicked on he "gauges" menu in FSPS but failed to find the 3 dots. Can you elaborate? Edited March 4, 2021 by miatamariner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
