fs2 crew use for non-PMDG 747

[cejones23 0]

I fly a United Airlines 747-400 that I downloaded from a freeware site. I am interested in purchasing the FS2Crew add-on for the cockpit but would love to continue to use my UA model. Is there a way to do this? If so, how? I have FSX and my OS is Vista.

Hi,If it's freeware, your best bet is to purchase the 'default' version of FS2Crew 747, not the PMDG specific one.If that freeware 747 uses its own panel.cfg file, which it might, you'll need to manually copy and paste the FS2Crew window and gauge entries over to that panel.cfg file, ensuring that the window and gauge numbers line up in sequence.It'll take a bit of panel.cfg 'know how' to do that.
