~S~ Can one rearrange/add gauges to the FS2004 HUD view? It can be done in CFS-2 easily, and in CFS-3 to my recollection, but I cant find the secret in FS2004. I want to arrange the instruments into the classic T and add a rotor torque gauge. I have added a helicopter HUD from another sim site but it's military look just doesn't fit the genre. Thanks in advance for your help. Regards, Kafco

S All, Ok....I found the answer....by not giving up. To add, change or rearrange gauges on your default FS9 HUD view: using the CFGedit program just make the changes in the panel.cfg file of Mini Panel(one of the WindowsXX= in the list). Regards, Ken

Hmm...now that you mention that Kafco, I think I remember that...lol It's been quite a while since I've 'messed' with gauge files and the manipulation that goes with that sort of thing. As a matter of fact, I think it was around the CFS2/Fuel dump time...:D Glad you got it sorted..and thanks for the info..:chug:

~S~ All, Here is my example for a civil helicopter HUD. It isn't a correct "basic T" but purpose arranged and suits my needs. Added torque and gas prod gauges and then sized the gauge faces. Sure gives me a good view. Regards, Ken
