I have it installed in FSX with Acceleration and I don't have this problem. It's not finding the gauge file obviously. I there anything unusual about your installation like non-standard directories or something?

No.Befor adding patch no gauge ware displayed. After patching (r4dFSXu1) only autopilot were not displayed.This is my direction to the game.

C:\gry\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X

Is there a way to manualy added gauge of autopilot (only in 2D, Im not flying in 3D mode)?PS.Dumb question.Which plane has autopilot? On few screens at MAAM-SIM few don't hawe it.

I'm not sure what screenies you are looking at. Actually, all our DC-3s, C-47s and R4Ds have the autopilot. Make sure the SPERRY.gau is in your FSX Gauges folder.

This is just a hunch, but I have a feeling that your non-standard location may have something to do with the problem. Check and see if the installer created a "c:\program files\microsoft games\flight simulator X\gauges\" directory. If so, there may be the gauge files in that directory. If not, try to extract the files to a temp directory and manually copy you gauge files to the gauge directory in your installation. All of the R4D versions have the Sperry autopilot. It looks to me like the file hasn't gotten into your gauge directory or folder.
