Re : [P3D]RFN Gauge P3D V3.1

Hi,

I use this gauge with P3D v3.1 and everything is ok.

Have you not forgot to install
- Microsoft.NET Framework 2.0 or later
http://www.microsoft.com/fr-fr/download/details.aspx?id=17718
- Microsoft Visual C ++ 2010. The 32-bit (x86) must be installed on the systems aussi 64-bit (x64)

Jean thank you for your reply, yes I have the Visual C++ 2010 X86 and 64 and the .net 2 .0 is the latest as I use win 10 and it comes with the latest version in it...
I have full Admin rights and UAC is Off.  I am also tried only with the T45 from Dino Cattaneo, will try with other plane...

Hi Jorge,
I am also on Win 10.
Have you tried with the fouga zephyr (http://royalefrenchnavy.perso.sfr.fr/RFN-Avions.htm)

I can't help more for that, but you can read this topic : http://www.pilote-virtuel.com/viewtopic.php?id=50548 or contact "micpni" on this forum.

Re : [P3D]RFN Gauge P3D V3.1

Hi Jorge
Have a look on this :
3-5) Incomplete appearance of the window gauge
- Verify the number of the window that needs to be in the order of declaration in the [Window Titles] section and match the installation of TACAN RFN window.
- Verify that all of the lines declaring the window and calling the gauges are in the panel.cfg file.
- Verify the presence of the gauges in FSX/Gauges and that they were not corrupted during their decompression.
- Verify the installation of Microsoft.Net Framework and Microsoft Visual C++2010 32 bits (x86).

Normaly, the reason is in these lines above, but let me know the result after ckeck.

Click on "spoiler" for reading the complete installation:

[Spoiler]

2-3) Installation in FSX and FSX-SE
It is advised to make a backup copy of existing files before modifications (for example by adding .ori at the end of the concerned file). So, in case of error, simply delete this extension to return to the previous version.
Step I) In FSX, FSX-SE / Gauges folder paste the following files:
DSD_Sound_Gauge.gau, RFN_Carrier.xml, RFN_CarrierGauge.dll, RFN_Parameters.xml
If a file or a gauge is already present, make a back-up and replace it.
NavOps.cab, Carrier.dll and SpeedControl.dll are not used in this version and can be deleted.
Step II) In FSX, FSX-SE / Sound folder (and not FSX / Sounds if it exists) paste the directory:
- RFN_Sounds
It has to be in the same level as the files ATC, or dsd, or lessons, …
Step III) In FSX, FSX-SE / SimObjects / Boats paste the directories:
- VEH_Alouette_Pedro
- VEH_FLOLS_Trailer
- VEH_Panther_Pedro
Step IV) In FSX, FSX-SE / Effects paste the file:
- fx_Pedro_Anticol.fx

Step V) Add the following lines in the panel.cfg of the chosen plane:
Remark: change systematically "XX" by the correct sequence number.

A) In [Window Title] add the line:
WindowXX=TACAN RFN

B) After the last "Windows" section add:
[WindowXX]
Background_color=0,0,0
type=special
size_mm=170,290
windowsize_ratio=1.0
window_pos=0.810,0.370
visible=0
ident=49
gauge00=RFN_CarrierGauge!Close_Subpanel, 0, 2, 18, 18, c49
gauge01=RFN_CarrierGauge!Aircraft_Carrier_Indicator, 0, 0, 170, 220
gauge02=RFN_CarrierGauge!Radio_TACAN_ARN52B, 0, 222, 170, 068
// To change the dimensions of the gauge, modify the value of windowsize_ratio.
// Don't modify the order of the gauge.

C) In the section [VCockpit01] add the following lines:
//-------------Gauge Carrier Operations Nav2----------------------------
gauge81=RFN_CarrierGauge!TACAN_Navigation, 0, 0, 0, 0, Nav2
gauge82=RFN_CarrierGauge!CustomCatapult, 0, 0,
gauge83=RFN_CarrierGauge!Approach_Ctrl, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0.0
gauge84=DSD_Sound_Gauge!Sound, 0, 0,
// To activate Power Up light, modify the last criteria (0.0) in the gauge 83 line (See Section 4-5).
// For T45 by Dino Cattaneo copy these lines in the present first [VCockpitXX]).
// For a panel without Virtual Cockpit section, copy these lines after gauge02 line.
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2-4) Installation in Prepar3D

A) Follow all the step I) to step V) in Prepar3D

B) The folder Prepar3D\Missions\Military\CarrierPractice\Sound\ does not exist in Prepar3D. You have to :
- either create it, respecting the full path and copy the files from the FSX for example,
- either modify the RFN_Carrier.xml file by changing all lines Language = "US" in Language = "FR".

Re : [P3D]RFN Gauge P3D V3.1

Sorry , correction , it works OK in FSX .. and the gauges and panel are a copy from P3D so there are the same files .

The Fouga is for FSX only , I installed but the RFN Gauge is window09 so no way to activate it , I changed it to 08 but same no gauge., plus I get a black background in all of the 2d windows...

I also suspected EZCa , but I removed the exe and redid the cameras.cfg but no luck.

Re : [P3D]RFN Gauge P3D V3.1

My friends...Thankyou for your patience and help, I have fixed my problem , caused by having the Gauges installed by themselves ( no XML) outside the SIM root, and referenced in the gauges.cfg file in program data... This was a left over from some trials I was doing to get all AC and scenery outside the Sim Root.... 

failed to clean up and paid the consequences ...

Thank you for your support... I never stressed myself so much trying to understand French!!! I speak Spanish but you know is hard...

Re : [P3D]RFN Gauge P3D V3.1

Hi Jorge
Glad to see that the problem is solved.
However, the zephyr fouga works perfectly on P3D v3.1, except dump. The RFN gauge is already included in this model.
Jean.

Re : [P3D]RFN Gauge P3D V3.1

Bonjour
Petites modifications du § 3-5.
Michel

[Spoiler]

3-5) Apparition et disparition de la fenêtre
- Dans le panel.cfg section [Window Titles], vérifiez le numéro de la fenêtre qui doit être dans l'ordre chronologique des déclarations et qui doit correspondre à celui d'installation de la fenêtre TACAN RFN.
- Dans le panel.cfg section [Window Titles], vérifiez la ligne de déclaration de la fenêtre.
- Dans le panel.cfg section [WindowXX], vérifiez toutes les lignes de la gauge.
- Dans le panel.cfg section [VCockpit01], vérifiez toutes les lignes de la gauge.
- Dans FSX/gauges, vérifiez la présence des gauges (DSD_Sound_Gauge.gau, RFN_Carrier.xml, RFN_CarrierGauge.dll, RFN_Parameters.xml) et qu'elles ne sont pas corrompues lors de leur décompression ou de leur mise en place, par exemple par l'antivirus.
- Vérifiez également l'installation de Microsoft.Net Framework et Microsoft Visual C++2010 32 bits (x86).

3-5) Appearance and disappearance of the window of the gauge
- In the [Window Titles] of the panel.cfg file, check the window number to be in the order of the statements and must match the installation of the TACAN RFN window.
- In the [Window Titles] of the panel.cfg file, check the reporting line of the window.
- In the [WindowXX] of the panel.cfg file, check all the lines of the gauge.
- In the [VCockpit01] of the panel.cfg file, check all the lines of the gauge.
- In FSX/gauges, check for the gauges (DSD_Sound_Gauge.gau, RFN_Carrier.xml, RFN_CarrierGauge.dll, RFN_Parameters.xml) and that they are not corrupted during their decompression and their implementation, for example by antivirus.
- Check also the installation of Microsoft.Net Framework and Microsoft Visual C ++ 2010 32-bit (x86).
