Title: VC has missing gauge cluster, OH & Pedestal bl
Post by Raymar99 on Jun 7^th, 2010 at 4:12am

I have the Full Pro C-130 X-perience pack and all models at one time or another will have the center gauges blacked out (missing) along with the OH panels, and the center pedestal while in the VC mode. �2d is fine.

Customer Support deletes my Service Request and references how to update and reinstall. �I have uninstalled, cleared out the registry, and reinstalled with the latest download and the exact same thing happens. �Usually when returning to the VC from an exterior view.

Any ideas? �:-[

When I am filling out the customer service form, one of the required inputs is the current version of the Capt Sim package. �Anyone know the current version of C-130 X-perience? �I don't know and don't know where to find out. �Thanks.

Hi Raymar

I have only ever seen that if I change between the Classic gauges and the EICAS gauges (but not the OH panel problem).

Just so you know, the current version is v.1.3. When you select the Captain Sim C-130 from the list of aircraft for FSX, it displays this info in the description\specs box below left of the plane (see pic).

Thanks Markoz, I thought that was the ver but the form for support does nothave it as one of the choices.

Yes, the blacked out gauge areas are a real bummer. Happens all the time. Usually the entire pedestal and overhead panels are black.

hi there,

I had this issue with the 727 and mailed Captain Sim.
Their solution was to re-install FSX Acceleration Pack,
And hey presto, all gauges missing like yours appeared.
Also I didnt need to change or reset any other addons, so was a harmless Re-Install which is a scary thing to do with lots of addons installed.

I would still send a bug anyway to check, but that worked fine for me,

OK, thanks. I will probably put this off as long as I can. One of those frustrating days, I will just have to stop and do it.

It just sounds so "off the cuff", not me, always somebody else kinda fix.
