concorde help

Same problem here 😞

Same problem also with missing gauges - I think some of the minor gauges seem to install okay - but the main gauges appear to missing from the download.

The aircraft also appears to sit incorrectly on the runway - front wheel partially below ground level - rear wheels slightly above.

Are these bugs - anyone got a solution for us new guys here ?

Cheers

This is a site for the download.

FS2002 Concorde V3, Air France - Full Package.
Based on FS2K Concorde (needs Concorde 2000 gauge). Include full cockpit views, panel and sound

It seems that it needs gauges from another plane.

I also downloaded the Concorde package. how did you guys get the thing to work at all? I can't even select the aircraft from the menu in FS 2002

Please help?

Hi zetabond

I'm also new to adding aircraft to FS2002 - so its a bit like the blind leading the blind here - but I managed to get the Concorde download to sort of work something like this....

1 - I downloaded the ConcV3AF.zip file and unzipped it - I then had a CONCORDE-V3 folder which contained all the necessary files plus it also contained a gauges.zip file which seemed to contain SOME but not all the flightdeck gauges - I'm still looking for the main gauges.

2 - I then navigated to C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\FS2002 on my pc and opened it - you should then be able to see a folder called 'aircraft' which is where all the aircraft seem to live - I then put the complete CONCORDE-V3 folder in there with all the original aircraft.

3 - I then unzipped the gauges.zip file and put the contents into C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\FS2002\GAUGES which seems to contain all the gauges for the aircraft in FS2002.

4 - I then loaded FS2002 as normal - and it appeared to update itself presumably with the new Concorde data.

5 - I could then select Concorde from the aircraft menu in FS2002 under the heading Groupe Aerospace.

If you're still awake after all this I have noticed a couple of problems - you'll probably find like I did that the main gauges on the flightdeck are missing - I think they have to be downloaded from somewhere else - but I haven't found where yet - can anyone help out there.......??

Problem 2 is that on the external view - the aircraft appears to have its nosewheel slightly below ground level and its main undercarriage slightly above.......I think it may be something to do with some of the parameters in the aircraft.cfg file being dodgy but I'm really not sure - can anyone help out there............??

Apart from that it flies and looks really cool - hope this helps you

Hi all,

I have the same problem with the concorde build for fs2002. Like said, you must haven the concorde fs2000 gauges in order to get the version for fs2002 to work proper.
So I presume one oyou folks must have flight simulator 2000. So if those persons can upload/e-mail (jhreijn@xs4all.nl / josreijnders@hotmail.com) me those gauges i would be verry pleased.

Greetings Jostiekiller

Hi Jostiekiller

Could you post another message and tell everyone if you get hold of the Concorde gauges from FS2000 and you are willing to share the info.

I have a solution for the external view of Concorde not sitting correctly on the runway if anyones interested.

If anyone has the same problem I can give them the info to rectify it.

Cheers aw007aw

It looks like the 3rd one down has the gauges.

Hi RadarMan

Cheers aw007aw 😀

Thanx radarman for the link to the concorde gauges, at the moment the link doesn't work, but I hope the link is temp down.

greetins 😂 Jossie

aw007aw,

It's Zeta. Have you got the gauges for the concorde. I have FS 2002 and by what i am reading it sounds as if you have found the holy grail that is the concorde gauges. Can you tell me how you got them and then how to install.

Cheers

Zeta

Hi Zeta

I did get the concorde gauges and they work okay - I can't remember the site I got them from but I tried the site Radarman suggested and it didn't work so I did an internet search for them.

You need to search the internet for a file called concorde.gau or concorde.gau.zip - the file size unzipped is about 3.60Mb - then when youve found it and downloaded it - just put it into the GAUGE folder in FS2002 alongside all the original FS2002 gauges.

Try going to http://www.airga-va.com/Alex%20Page_newpanels.htm where concorde.gau.zip is listed in yellow at the top of the page.

Hope this helps Zeta

Cheers aw007aw
