Merging SS 767 with QW 757 VC

Yes, I know it is a Justflight 757 however, I am nearly certain it WILL work for the QW 757 and the Freeware 767 *.mdl.

Make sure you have followed every step precisely.

It should be in the linked video. 

By the way: DON'T put your 767 model into the QW. Instead, replace the QW Panel, Sound (Optional) and VC mdl file into the 767 Freeware. 

I hope it helped:)

I found a solution for the QW FSX/P3D 757 VC to merge it into the SSP 767.  In the QW 757 panel (either one, main or retro), simply disable the QualityWings Control Panel gauge in two places in the panel.cfg:

[WindowTitles] (Window10=QualityWings Control Panel), this is the first section of the panel.cfg

[Window.10] (gauge00=QWings757!FSX_757_Controlpanel,  0,0,203,487), this is almost directly in the middle of the panel.cfg

To disable, just put // in front of each of the two entries.  This references the QW 757 exterior model, and once I disabled it, the VC appears when merged with the SSP 767.  All the cockpit gauges and FMC seem to work just fine.  You don't need the QW Control panel for a merge into another aircraft since it is model-specific to its parent model (QW 757), and it wouldn't work in another aircraft anyways.

Good luck with your merge, and hope this helps.  I have enjoyed flying and painting the QW 757 immensely from FS9 to currently P3Dv4, and now I can use the panel for my various 767s.

SS767. QW757. P3D4.5.

Not instructions but proves it can be done.

1) A google search brought me here. Too funny. Right??

2) I checked the link you posted. They were unsuccessful. All they did was get a 2D panel working. Not the VC.

 

Words can't describe how frustrating it is to do a google search that links me to a thread like this where someone says "Do a google search." How do you think I got here?

3) Why don't you do a google search on jumping to conclusions. Not that you need practice.

I have made one with pbr i've been working on for some time, only have the GEWL, PWWL, and GEF

i didnt edit any of the properties, just lined up the model, added pbr and bumpmaps and edited the contactpoints.

 

to anyone having trouble, the airplanes folder has to have qualitywings in the name, and all the model folders have to be called after the original ones, PW, PWWL, RR, etc.

I've been merging these planes this weekend. I was 90% successful doing so. I started using the guide available at https://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?DLID=171593. I was able to make all lights work (including VC flood), but I have yet to tune the AP (specially FLC mode, which is not working as in the 757). However, I couldn't find any spec or bump maps to add.How did you do so?

Not needed. However, the merge must be in the same Simobjects folder where the QW757 is installed. This means no way to install using addon.xml.

Confirmed needed. Failure to do so will result in blank displays. This is a problem for the 763 GE models: I had to use a folder for PW+RR and another one for GE. Since I use GSX, I had to duplicate them for allowing versions with or without L2 boarding. For the 762 should be easier (there are no 762 with RR engines AFAIK, so a single folder can be enough).
