May 12, 201115 yr Hi simmers,On the 08th May I posted an enquiry about the sound missing from a nice little gauge presented by Glenn Copeland. The Altitude Alerter. I had done everything by the numbers for install. Copied/Pasted the info according to Glenns instructions. No sound however. Our dear "Opa" with keen eye and checking for the details found a typo error in the panel.cfg gauge string. gaugexx=AltAlert_dsd_xml_sound3!dsd_xml_sound3, 0, 0, 1, 1, ./Gauges/AltAlerterGau_2/AltAlert_sound.ini . The line in my .cfg was missing the "er" . I thank all those who have tried to help resolve this and I hope that if there is anyone else out there with same problem, it may now fix it.God Bless you all,Rusty aka greatdragon

May 12, 201115 yr Hi Andy, Yes I recall seeing your request to Glenn about it. If you do the change it works great and you can fly up and down around the altitudes set and get a nice message everytime. No major limit.God Bless, Rusty

May 14, 201115 yr Hello thereI can confirm that the 'er' makes all the difference and the altitude alerter now works.Thanks Opa and cheers RustyAfter waiting five years or so to get this gauge to work, I have now decided to remove it.I find it a little fiddly to set the different altitude's and it still doesn't always seem to call. The only way to make it none fiddly would be to enlarge the gauge to a silly size. Any way I still have my ten thou alert from another app ,and I think as a responsible virtual Biggles its up to me to monitor my altitude.(AT ALL TIMES SIR!) (INDEED SIR!)cheers to allAndy
