Hi Friends
Has someone ported the old FS9 Cloud9 F-104G in FSX ?
Actually I'm making an attempt, the plane flies and looks OK (all the versions), but ALL the gauges are "invisible" and the AB flame fx doesn't work.....

HELP !!!

Hi Johan,
I tried, but without results.....
I think that, probably, the two ".gau" files aren't compatible with FSX.....

Wow. Of ALL of the FS9 airplanes I would like to see seamlessly ported into FSX, the Cloud9 F-104 is one of them. A close second is their Aermacchi MB-339CD series. Gorgeous airplanes.

Have you tried swapping them out with the gauges of theCS F-104? Those do work in FSX!

Hi Johan,
The swapping You suggest is impossible, the CS gauges are COMPLETELY different from the C9's ones, strangely they are grouped and every panel is a gauge (take a look at CS panel.cfg). Your idea is good indeed, but ONLY for a 2D panel, not for a VC.
During the next days I'll make an attempt with the SSW Freeware F-104ASA gauges, but their dimensions and proportions are different.....
