Just installed Harrier GR.7 by Adam K. Preece everything works but I have no gauges in cockpit. I followed his instructions and copied the autosmoke and hja folders to FSX gauge folder but the gauges dont appear. any help would be appreciated. Thanks serafin42

You have to put the contents of the downloaded gauge folder into the main gauge folder.
Also put another gauge folder into the folder that you put into the aircraft folder.
Leave it with the cfg, panel, textures etc.
Having it in two places is OK.
All you have to do is unzip the download twice.

It's easier than copying them.

Hi I've followed all the advice both here and in the 'readme' files re loading these. But still don't get any gauges in the 'virtual cockpit' view. Is this the norm or is there something else I should do. Running FSX with SP2 on a 32 bit AMD 64 processor.

The plane is incredible and so easy to fly. I got it hovering and landing on water on the very first flight. Pop up from a valley then raise flaps and within seconds you are doing 400 knots forwards. Fanfuckingtastic!!

Thanks in anticipation.

If we had a download link to it, then maybe we can help as well.
