Fs2k2 Gauges
 
I downloaded a WWA A380 "freeware" for fs2k2!
the normal install didn't work , but after a while managed to install into fs2k2. Trouble is it's a bit short of gauges.
I have the a380 gauges folder sitting on my desktop, but don't know how open it in my fs gauges folder?
Would appriciate any help please.

regards nooluv.......

I haven't tinkered with Flight Sim for a long time now, but if I remember rightly, somewhere in your main flight sim folder there is a sub-folder called gauges (I always struggle spelling that!). You should be able to copy your A380 gauges files into it.

Try www.avsim.com for the real simming experts.

Richard have you any idea about this problem?
I've managed to get a few of the gauges to work.
Is there a special file number for fs2k2?
Hope you can help. thank's nooluv....

nooluv,

I have not messed around with Flight Sim 2k2 much. My brother-in-law actually mods Fight Sim 2k4. The other day he showed me a version of the FS2k4 that had the tower talking to all of my flight school aircraft while at the Naples Airport (KAPF). :eek:

I will ask him to take a look at the thread for you and see if he has any ideas.

Take Care,

Richard

nooluv,

I spoke to him. He does not know the program you are using but he will look at it tonight. He also said that ratsarrse knows what he is talking about.

I will give more details and hopefully a fix later.

Take Care,

Richard

P.S. Could you please give me the link to the WWA A380 "freeware".

nooluv,

It took a little navigating thought their site to find it but I have the link now:

WestWind Airbus 380 ProMX V2.4

WestWind’s A380 panel uses Camil Valiquette’s orginal panel with the addition of some freeware gauges.
Sometimes freeware that is offered does not work as advertised. I will check it out and get back to you.

Take Care,

Richard

nooluv,

It does not look like the program comes with all the gauges. They are using some freeware gauges to fill in, but I do not think all the A380 gauges are there to begin with.

I would also download and install:

Camil Valiquette’s A380s

http://pages.infinit.net/camsim/mx9_388ab.gif

To see if having Camil's full panels helps.

Take Care,

Richard
