I used the NGX Performance Manager for the first time yesterday. It immediately said it had detected some non standard variants, without saying what and asked if I wanted to revert to standard. Without thinking I said yes.

 

Last night, when I came to use FS2Crew it would not launch and then it dawned on me - the Perf Manager was probably referring to the panel.cfg file.

 

The question, therefore is, do I have to re-install FS2Crew or are the mods to the cfg file available somewhere for me to add?

This happened to me as well, just run the FS2Crew config manager again and disable then re-enable the version of FS2Crew you're using and all should be well. Bare in mind though that if you run the PMDG performance manager again you'll have to do what i just again.

Thanks Damien, grateful for your help. That did the trick!

Yes, the PMDG performance manager erases the VC panel.cfg entry for the FS2Crew gauge used to open the Main Panel from the VC.

 

Be mindful of that when using the PMDG Performance Manager.

 

Note: Most of you are running modern systems... you don't really need to run the Performance Manager.
