EFIS Control Panel - No Terrain?

Featured Replies

I imagine this has come up a time or two before. . . couldn't find in the search engine and the manual explains all the buttons on the EFIS Panel right up to, but not including the TERR.This TERR button seems to do nothing. I guess it is inopperable at present. . . or is it? There is a key assignment - Ctrl+Shft+Tab+2. Will we ever have a terrain overlay on Navigation Display, or is it not realistc?Terry

No it does not do anything. DO you know of any other sim that has the terrain displayed like the real one? If so I would be interested in seeing it.Best Wishes,[h4]Randy J.

Randy et al,I think the PM GC line has the ability to show terrain. I remember seeing it in the demo software. Don't now how it is collected though. Looks pretty neat but is very CPU intensive.Have a look at: www.projectmagenta.comCheers,

Hey, easy big guy. It was just a question. Id be satisfied with seeing the default GPS display in the Nav window.Terry

Easy back at ya! That was not meant in a negative way, I am really interested in this if it exists lol. The NO in caps was a type not a yell.

Hi Terry,Just curious, with all of the sophisticated NAV display and NAV systems in the NG why would you want the default FS GPS display?

No, but you did ask for any sim ;)For those interested you also need to download a number of terrain data files that can be heavy on modem users. All described at the site mentioned above. Works superbly and perhaps some hot shot programmer can contact the Glideslope people and see if something similar can be done with a MSFS gauge? Fingers crossed, I

The real NG pilots have one don't they? :-) If the Terr display is not available at present then the GPS display might be an alternative. Terry :-)
