More than just the panel. Side bulkheads are also transparent. The panel
bitmap is mostly for the 2D. The VC is all built in to the model files.
Others too, have experienced this problem according to post I read. So
say remove SP2 but that can not be it. This is a NEW plane from Carenado
and no doubt they incorporated SP2 into their design.
Must be a few texture files missing somewhere.. I had the same
issue when I was overhauling the fs9 Beech D-18 to work with FSX.
I was missing several textures in the VC, some on the exterior,
and also the prop bmp's. But it was missing some textures because
I had many liveries of that plane, and not all common textures
were in every texture folder for the various liveries.
SP2 shouldn't have anything to do with this, particularly for a
new plane.
The VC is built into the model file, but that is just the untextured
"frame/body" so to speak. All the textures will be brought up the
texture folder for the exterior, and the panel folder for the 2D and VC
textures.
For some reason, either the textures are missing, or the link to
them is pointing in the wrong place.
It's possible the textures are within a .dll file for the VC.
So make sure that any gauge, dll, or cab files for that plane are in
the gauge folder that is common to all planes, even if it's installed
in a fsx aircraft sub folder. copy a 2nd copy to the gauge folder, just
to make sure it gets pointed to.. Normally the gauge folder would be the
last location the sim would look for those.
As mentioned, on some planes, the only BMP's in the panel folder will
be for 2D, and the rest will be imbedded into a dll or cab file.
In some cases, both 2D and VC textures will be in the panel folder..
It can vary just to how they built the thing.
Should be no major problem tracking this down and getting it going..
Just need to find out why it can't find all the textures.
