Help requested please...
Have just downloaded the Viscount V800.
Everything looks good in its correct folder.
On starting FSX all dials are there but blanked out???

The sound is good.
I flew a take off "blind" and everything responds correctly.

I opened 2 windows...one with an a/c I know is properly installed, B737 .
The other window opened the Viscount.
I then checked every file in viscount against 737 to see if anything didnt match or was missing etc. All looks good.
So Im at a loss and dont want to further experiment incase I screw up even more!!! 😕

Check the read-me that came with the download.
It may specify that you have to put the downloaded gauges themselves into the main gauge folder.
When you do take them out of the downloaded folder don't put the folder itself into the main folder.

Thank you Radarman
After downloading the original zip file and installing etc, and starting FSX.
I went to change a/c file, showing all details. I chose the Eagle visc which was where the guage prob started. I then arbitrarily chose the Northeast viscount AND UP EVERYTHING CAME!! (wonder how to get gauges to show in all variants?)
