FSX Gauges

SOH-CM-2025
Hiya,

Is there a way to extract the default fsx gauges directly from the dvd,s ?
Or do i have to install fsx again ?
 
Hi,
I think it is possible looking at the cab files with a program like Izarc and extracting what you want.
JMC
 
Tried to open a random cab on the disk but it contains a lot of files with no extension .
So i went for a clean install on a seperate hd to copy them from that location.
Thx.
 
For the record, you can use 7-Zip to Open the .cab file and extract the .xml files and .bmp files manually.
 
Thx for all the suggestions , guys.
I installed fsx next to my p3dv4 and copied the gauges over .
The issue was the fact that i dld a plane from rikooo.
This one to be exact :
https://www.rikoooo.com/downloads/viewdownload/12/212
It only displayed half the gauges so i figured that it used some fsx default gauges.
The action i took didnt solve the problem though.
I think some of the gauges are incompatible with 64 bit wich is weird because it says to be v4 caompatible.
So i deleted the plane ;)
 
I've just downloaded the AN124 and had a look. It does contain 3 incompatible gauges in the panel folder. If you just delete the "737-400.dll", "Mooney_Bravo.dll" and "KingAir.dll" from the panel folder it should then work, unless you've copied the 32bit FSX gauges into your P3d gauges folder overwriting the 64bit versions already there....
 
Just tested it and all works .

Thx Dave :wavey:

p.s. Why would it need a mannifold preasure gauge , lol
