C172 Panel Problems in P3Dv5.4

Post by Blaunarwal »

Hi

I recently found that some avionic instruments are not drawn correctly. This also happens with default GPS. The example pic is with RXP GTN 750.

I tried to reinstall the plane but it remained the same. Are A2A planes compatible with 5.4 or only up to 5.3 HF2? May that be the cause?

My other A2A planes don't have this problem and I have no clue, when it began, since I only recently took the C172 out of the hangar and found the panel like this.

Here another detailed pic. It is another instrument loaded after the correct ones are drawn. When loading the plane one can see it is drawn right afterwards. The panel.cfg is not modified by me, only by the config program from A2A to add the GTN750.

I can't recognize the instrument in amber color. I have no clue, where that comes from.

What can I do?

Regards

Dan

In FSX there was a "High-resolution 3-D Virtual Cockpit" in the setting ->display aircraft tab that should be checked. I'm not sure about P3D, but I think it's worth checking

Hi Thomas

That was a good hint. I had added VIRTUAL_COCKPIT_TEXTURES_SCALE = 2 in the Prepar3D.cfg, cause I had kind of grainy textures with another plane. So this option is not compatible with the C172. Removing it, solved the problem. Thanks Dan
