Wow! Thanks SteveB and Huub! Great stuff there.

I got some more time on this one this evening.

That's shaping up nicely Steve. Had to build yet another hangar for all these Havocs. Excellent work mate!

Check this out for a nice tribute to Milton and others on the A-20: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6_6X7IZXPEA Yes, I know it is another simulation format, but we know how well fs9 delivers when creative masters like Milton Shupe and friends support it.

Aye the old fs9 project has gone far it is now available for 4 sim's . I've been converting textures for sims I don't even have .

True it is Steve. We have a native FSX model set, a native FS9 set, and the CFS2 set has been converted to native CFS2.

The FSX native set runs in P3D but is not P3D native.

With all that said, it is interesting trying to accommodate all those sims in modeling, xml, textures, gauges, flight models, effects and sounds.

Thanks to the talented CFS2 guys for making that happen there.

Hi Steve,
Is she ready to come out of the hangar...?

Thanks,

Douglas A20 Havoc fuel gauge

Goog evening Milton,

my 2D panel seems ready for to be published.
How far are you with the fuel gauge(s)?
For the moment the fuel gauge are the only thing "open"
I just did a flight fromk Carcassone to Vannes Meucon.
All seems to work well now.
Yours
Papi

Hi Michael,

Attached are updates to the FS9 A-20C Havoc panel folder.

It contains updates to the panel.cfg, and added gauges to the ST_Havoc folder.

The updates pertain ONLY to the FS9 Havoc side. FSX will be different.

The gauges represent all 8 individual fuel tanks.
I also included a fuel flow gauge (in U.S. Gallons per engine) so one can easily determine how much time is left on remaining fuel.

Gauges display "percent full" for each tank and U.S. gallons of "fuel remaining" in each tank.
The Main and aux tank gauge also displays "total gallons of fuel available" for those 4 tanks (center tooltip).

Thanks to Wellis for doing the gauge backgrounds for me.

Hallo Milton,

just had a look on the fuel gauges from the panel upgrade.
I hoped to find a fuel gauge as a psp picture was contained in the first releases of your specific Havoc gauges.
I join the picture as jpeg.
I looked all the docs you kindly provided me. On all panels the fuel gauge is of this looking
I try to find a solution but for the moment I# m bugging

Papi,

With my limited gauge coding skills, it was easier for me to do the individual tank gauges with extra readouts than to wrestle with this one as we had intended.

Either way, neither of the gauges would fit on the existing panel layouts so I opted for my approach.

Douglas A20 Havoc fuel gauge

Hallo again Milton,
really I hope not to bore you.
I believe that I found a solution - the fuel gauge of the B26 Marauder suits
quiet well. It shows the quantity of left main, right main, left aux, right aux left bomb bay, right bomb bay tanks via the switch.
I will see if I find a solution for the belly tank. I just have little idea.
Yours
Papi
