    Just got this from Andrew.

    Jerry,


    You can duplicate the panel folder and put it in the other two aircraft.


    You can also use alias like this BF-109:


    [fltsim]
    alias=AW BF-109G6\panel

    He's talking about the P51D and used the BF109 as an EXAMPLE. Hope this solves the problem.

    IT DOESN'T. I COPIED THE TWO PANEL FILES IN CWDT_P51d to the other two folders and no dice. It doesn't make sense. There was another folder in the P51d first folder with a list of gauges that I also put into the second and third folders that didn't do anything. This is extremely strange. I'm still hoping to get ahold of Phanis and see if he has the original installer for this plane.

    TWO PANEL FILES IN CWDT_P51d???
    There should be ONLY 1 Panel folder in CWDT_P51d!!
    That Panel folder should contain the gauges as per the picture I previously posted. - That works for me & sorts out the CWDT_P51d
    Copy & paste that panel from the P-51d to the CWDT_P-51DFT
    (So CWDT_P51DFT folder has the same Panel folder as that of the CWDT_P51D)

    CWDT_P51DBR has a Panel folder that contains ONLY a panel.cfg - Nothing else
    That is a text file that aliases to the P-51DTF's panel.
    It says:

    The original panel.cfg in the CWDT_P-51DBR said:
    [fltsim]
    alias=cwdt_p-51d\panel

    Edit it to look like..

    [fltsim]
    alias=cwdt_p-51dft\panel

    The above works for me.

    It's very odd that what works for me does not work for others.. (yet another mystery of computer

    Panel.7z

    That's a copy of my Panel, with all the gauges. Just unzip it & paste it into P-51d
    If it works there, just copy & paste the whole folder into the other 2 aircraft folders.

    Don't waste any more time on this. I got ahold of phanis and he has the original cwdt installer and password and will send me this weekend. Then i can upload once and this thing should all work.

    Half the fun is to get it to work! It's really not wasting time, more like a fun way to learn more about FS2004, & how things work.

    It is good to hear Phanis is still around! Hopefully he is still making music

    Cheers,
