Questions on cockpit/gauge design

Featured Replies

I am trying to make a cockpit from my real aircraft's image. So far some things work quite well but a couple questions if anyone knows the answer.Here is a shot so far:1) Under #1-How do I get rid of these "white spots" that surround the instrument? They are not in the bitmap image...2) How do I "recalibrate" a needle e.g. at full power I should get 2600 rpm-because I have changed the bitmap I get 3700 now.3) General question-my gauges I have made from photos are sharp in the photos. They also are sharp in plane maker. However, when run in the sim they are blurry. I have tried doubling the resolution of the images from the defaults but that doesn't seem to help either. Any ideas?4) I assume any custom instruments I need like the load meters, oil pressure/cyl head temp/oil temp gauges, icing pressure etc. I am just out of luck?Thanks for any help.

Thanks for any help.
Hi Geofa,unfortunately I can't answer your enquiry, and this forum seems quite dead. My advice is to try on the "Aircraft and development forum" on x-plane.org:http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?showforum=3Marco
