Check the gauge number in the window. Mine showed as gauge10 for the only gauge in the window. It's supposed to be 'gauge00'.

Hi. Thanks. You are right. There were two places in the Windows that called out gauge01 not gauge00. I have used FSPS several times and it rewrote them as gauge 00. The radar panel flashes quickly when I open it and it disappears. I am still looking for a fix for it. Here's my Window07:

[Window07]

size_mm=386,768
position=1
visible=0
background_color=0,0,0
ident=48
gauge00=mirage2000-5_gauges_R!detectradar, 0,0,386,768

I discovered in my troubleshooting that the mirage2000-5_gauges_R!detectradar gauge will not display in my SP1 FSX at all. I put it in the Window00 as gauge 36 and it does not display at all. There must be something in that section of the gauge that SP1 does not like.

Best regards, Bob.

I'm with SP1 myself. It can be a challenge.

My gut feeling would be to replace the offending gauge with another radar. Eric Marciano's, for example. I must have a look at this.

Remember that we're not allowed to publish modifications to this aircraft - and this would count.

Hi. Please let me know if this happens to you too. I think the problem is in the HELPID's in the gauge. They are for SP2, and later, and won't let it show in SP1. Regards, Bob.

Time to update perhaps?

Yep. The same issue here. Not a problem, though, as I simply swapped-out the offending gauge. Two minute job.

Regarding Frank's suggestion of 'upgrading' to SP2/Acceleration. I must say that I have tried, but my laptop hardware fails the SP2 installation hardware checks -- so I'm stuck with SP1. There are advantages, though.
Admittedly, I don't get the carrier handling items, but I use Rob Barendregt's COP anyway.

2. Hit [ctrl+E].
3. Hit [ctrl+shift+F4] until the engine fires.

Works every time.

They're numbered "1", "2" and "3" on the photo.

Maybe someone can help me.

I installed the Mirage 2000-5 as per installation instructions.

The Problem is:
There is no ENGINE SOUND AT ALL.

While the Clic-Sound is ok and even strong.

There are some Sound-indications but i believe the present files should work.

i copied all relative files into the indicated folders inclusiv the Sound Files that are described in a separate section with the PDF-File.

The plain is flying + there is no other problem upto now.

Thanks for a explanation.

forstmeier · November 21st, 2009, 07:16

RESOLVED THE PROBLEM

I found the original-sound Mirage Sound files + changing the sound.cfg file. Quite different from a F18 sound.

Now it is working fine and realistic.

Could some one please,please,please send this to me because I can not find this anywhere!!!!!!!! when I go to their page it "crash" http://rollus13.perso.neuf.fr/index.php

Hi all!
I did the register first and tried to use your link for the Mirage2000 of Rollus. But after clicking it, a black page appeared with a white banner saying "CRASH".

Is your link meanwhile dead or did I something wrong?
Would be great when you can help me please!

Keep the blue side up!
Bye

--WingMan-- · December 30th, 2009, 08:13

I also tried it on the mirage4fs homepage which seems to be the origin of your link.
Says the same... CRASH...

***fsafranek*** · January 12th, 2010, 11:14

Just an update on this. So the site was hacked. And also apparently torrent types have been making downloads available (something like 20,000 -- who says FS is dead) despite the author's specific request not to. So he is pretty pissed off about it (when he said no repaints he meant it, when he said no other download locations he meant it) and has, as anyone who tried to visit the site has experienced, pulled the plug. I'm not sure what the fate will be for the Rafale he was working on.

I'll let you know when he writes back.
:ernae:

Some discussion here. Echoes what I read from Roland in a French forum:

His stance on his work baffles me, but before I pass judgement, could anyone give me a good reason why someone would only limit downloads of a freeware addon to their own site, with explicit instructions not to upload to any other sites, trusted or not? I really can't see why that'd do any more harm than good. :isadizzy:

***falcon409*** · January 13th, 2010, 00:38

I just decided to take a look at this thread to see (I thought) how everyone was enjoying the 2000, instead, it appears that the site is down after being hacked and future downloads are non-existent right now?:isadizzy:

Shoot, I was going to finally get around to downloading and flying the Mirage. Guess that'll have to wait. Folks just can't keep their hands out of the cookie jar!

Have these problems been known to cause an out of memory/memory error? It does on my system when zooming to certain parts of the VC, of which I cannot point out exactly?

A pity he's been hacked but also a very strange distribution policy. Could be handy if he's to issue frequent updates tho, only one server to upload to.

Thanks

You took the words right out of my mouth.

This will sound harsh, but he basically had it coming.

Still, I hope there's a satisfactory solution for all parties, say users and developer.

Well, you can still upload to just one location only and let the internet do the rest.

***fsafranek*** · January 13th, 2010, 23:21

The site is back up.

Who knows for how long? Get it while you can.

I get that the page doesn't exist when I log in (at least that's what I can interpret from my minimal command of the french language).

***falcon409*** · January 14th, 2010, 06:42

Yea, so did I but on the left there is a link to "register", fill that out, when completed and you click "ok" (or whatever to continue) you'll get some errors, ignore those, go back and click the "download link", sign in and the download will begin. (slow downloads also. . .currently with hi-speed internet I'm downloading at 180kb/sec)

**TheOptimist** · January 14th, 2010, 07:38

YES.

The other day I was going to have a big rant, I'd been waiting to download this thing for months! Fortunately however I decided to keep quiet, so perhaps this is karma repaying me. 3% downloaded
