FMS Pop-up Window

Featured Replies

Installed FS2Crew last night, love the program..great job. I haven't run across any issues until I noticed that the FMS pop-up window (Shift+3 by default) is no longer interactable/clickable. It shows the correct panel .bmp per the panel file but for some reason the gauge itself has ceased to work. I can however operate the FMS/AP by clicking while in the VC, but when I open the pop-up via the shift command, the FMS is blank..and the turn knob is missing. Any other folks with this issue?Chris

Chris,I didn't see this during testing. Sounds like it might be a panel.cfg issue, though...In the FS2Crew Config Manager, try clicking "Restore Original PMDG J41 Config Files and Crew Callouts". Then click "Set PMDG J41 Config Files & Crew Callouts to FS2Crew". That will reset the files and might clear the issue.

Thanks for the suggestion. I did as you recommended and sadly it didn't fix the FMS panel.Chris

I just tested it and it works for me.If you're using the original, non-FS2Crew modified panel.cfg, then the issue is not FS2Crew.I suspect I know what it is, though.Check your "View Panel Window 3" key assignment in the FSX keyboard controls menu. It's probably not set to the default assignment, which is SHIFT 3.Cheers,

install SP1 for PMDG J41 and then it should work.

Well, I just purchased FS2Crew for the JS.I also encountered the above mention issue. Here is what Dusty did to get the FMS to operate like we believe(ed) it's supposed to. I went in to the panel folder for the JS...opened up the hi-def .cfg panel backup and copied/pasted the size mm and the entire gauges section into panel .cfg (main panel .cfg)Works like a charm.Hope this helps
