REX Wx Radar into Bert's Panel v57

Recommended Posts

Hi Folks,

Now that REX has the Wx Radar working in v4 - panel edits to modify Bert's outstanding work - inserts Wx Radar in place of Avadyne and adds Popup for it  as well... If you have Bill's (whamil77) Wx Radar toggle gauge - will open and close Wx Radar popup by clicking on gauge face...

These are just the edits - not the whole panel.cfg - just drop them in where appropriate... Save the originals first...

Obviously you need to own and have the REX Wx Radar gauge installed...

Thank you Scott, working nice here.

Hi Rune,

Happy to help - it’s been a while for the v4 update and it’s nice having it back... 

Regards,

Scott

For the moment I've given up on WX Advantage Radar with P3Dv4.1 as it's not working with my Flysimware or Milviz aircraft.

Two installations have crashed the sim.

 

Edited by nippa
A new installation using a different download link has also failed

PC-12 ready for t/o PANC.

Wx adv. radar +V57 in P3Dv4.17

I find that the popup is useless really, every control is available on the screen by moving your mouse pointer to the limits of the radar screen: range, gain, tilt and mode if I remember correctly.

Hi Nippa,

Strange - seems to be working well for me - have the Lear...

Hi Pierre,

Nice work - you look ready for business... Yep - understood - the controls are built into the glass of the gauge - use it that way myself - just added popup for those that prefer it...

Regards,

Scott

Hi Scott

 

Trust you are well.

A little slow here but could you please outline the steps to do this again? Can't seem to integrate the Wx Radar into the V57 Panel.

I am editing the panel.cfg in the V57 Folder, please confirm if this is the correct file to be modified?

Thanks and kind regards

Hi...

Yep - all good thanks...

OK - it sounds like you are in the right place - has to be Bert's V57 panel for the numbers to jive - panel.cfg is the correct file...

Save the original first...

The above edits need to be placed in three different spots in the panel.cfg... The text inside brackets are tags to indicate the type of data that follows until the next tag...

Just look for the headers for each block using the search function of your text editor...

Search for "Window Titles"

  • Add entry for "Window00" replacing whatever "Window00" entry is there...

Search for "Window00"

  • Replace the whole block of data there with what I posted...

Search for "Vcockpit04"

  • Replace the whole block of data there with what I posted...

Should work...

Regards,

Scott

Will try again in the morning, 

Thank you for responding early and appreciate your time and facilitation

Hi...

Looks right - this mod doesn't modify the bezel - so you have to use the click spots on the glass screen itself to control the gauge - are you sure it's not present ? The popup will not work without "whamil77's" popup gauge installed - it will still work in the VC without it but you need to power it on via the click spot...

Regards,

Scott

Scott, thank you. That was it @ click spot.

Up and running now, and it's taken me about three weeks to get it operational, lol!
