Hi,

a week ego i bought the iFly B747-400.

Installation with no problems. Everything works well by starting P3D with the default Prepar3D.exe file.

 

Buth, by starting from out SIMstarter i had no dispays in the cockpit, no PFD, ND, EICAS, no illumination in the buttons.

After some seartchinh i found that the "2-D panel transparency" setting was the cause, after setting from 100% to 0% in the simsettings everething was ok.

 

The problem now is that if i set the value to 0 in the profile configuration / Graphics in SIMstarter, the value always changes to 100% and i have to change it manually in the sim to geth the screens and buttons at work.

 

for all clearnes, what i found:

setting 0 in the SIMstarter (PREPAR3D Configuration / Graphics) = 0% in the sim Graphics setting = PANEL_OPACITY=0 in the Prepar3D.cfg [PANELS]

setting 1 in the SIMstarter (PREPAR3D Configuration / Graphics) = 100% in the sim Graphics setting = PANEL_OPACITY=1 in the Prepar3D.cfg [PANELS]

 

Hope you can solve this problem.
