Project Fokker F28 released

Kevin Farnell · Post by **Kevin Farnell** » 07 Feb 2007, 01:13

I've spent a little time going through all of the gauges in the Panel.cfg [window00], and the guilty culprit appears to be

gauge72=PFJ-F28_MiscGauges!WindowInit,0,0

I'm not sure what it does, but with it disabled, the sim runs smoothly.

Hope this may be of help to others.

Regards

Kevin

Thanks Kevin

It would be nice to know why that should be :think:

But at least you're fixed and as you say this may well be useful to others.

If you find anything else out please let us know

It seems that

gauge72=PFJ-F28_MiscGauges!WindowInit,0,0

is involved with Vspeed callouts, as these have disappeared since I disabled the Gauge (added '//' at the start of the line). Unfortunate, but I can live without them.
Other callouts ('Sinkrate', 'Glideslope' ect still work).
Perhaps itâ€™s a fault of my onboard sound card. I have a SoundBlaster Audigy in my old PC, which I may swap over.

Interesting Kevin

I might kill those myself as they are present on replay tower view.

Which TBH I am not too keen on :sad:

In fact I don't think they are working correctly on my system...another thing is when pausing all sound stops except any alarms.

But it's not been enough to class as an actual problem.

Could be it's incompatible with something I have but not as serious as you had.

Tony and James,

I think you need to set Internet Explorer to allow the downloads.
In Internet Explorer, click

'Tools'
'Internet Options'
'Privacy'
'Sites'

and then in the 'Address of Website' window, type

'Avism.com'

and then select

'Allow'.

Repeat this, but typing 'Avsim.net' into the 'Address of Website' window, and then select 'Allow'.

This was taken from the Avsim forum help site.

Hope it helps.

Kevin
