Event Logger

File Description:
This is a diagnostic gauge, targeted primarily at gauge and panel authors. It writes all Key_Events issued in FS9 to a log file, thus allowing the detection of repeating Key_Events which interfere with normal panel operation. It will not identify the gauge issuing the repeating Key_Events, but by identifying the Key_Events themselves, it should make the gauge issuing them somewhat easier to locate. If you have a panel which does not allow the selection of a second engine or exit, or which exhibits improper autopilot operation, this gauge may help you discover why.

Tutorial: Gauge Graphics, Part 2

File Description:
FS2004 Tutorial: Gauge graphics, Part 2. This comprehensive article describes methods for simulating gauge bodies, data windows, controls, and panel cutouts. Shadows, transparencies, text, beveling, feathering, contouring, textures, illumination, plus a host of other techniques are detailed. Over 300 illustrations were used to show how the graphics for an example FS gauge were created. That gauge is fully functional and available separately for D/L, file PatGauV1.zip. By Glenn Copeland

Check Gear Gauge

File Description:
FS2004 Gauge- Check Gear Lamp. This is a generic gauge for all types of aircraft. It will issue two alerts; the first is a orange Caution to CHECK GEAR. If wheels are not extended and the aircraft continues with the landing approach, the second alert will then activate. It is a red Warning to CHECK GEAR. Lamps have Push-To-Test function. After takeoff, gauge will automatically enter a Standby mode and will signal that the gear position will be monitored during the next approach and landing.

Autopilot Override Gauge

File Description:
FS2004 Gauge: Autopilot Override. This small gauge allows the pilot to override the autopilot at any time without first turning it off. The gauge activates automatically when the autopilot is turned on and it begins monitoring the rudder, elevators, and ailerons. When a control signal is detected that would alter the aircraft heading and/or altitude, the gauge disconnects the appropriate autopilot system and signals a visual warning. If corrections from the pilot warrant that both altitude and heading systems be disengaged, the gauge disconnects both functions and switches the autopilot off. This causes the audible AP-disconnect warning to sound and the AP OFF light to flash continuously until the autopilot is re-engaged or the override gauge is turned off.

Digital Checklist Gauge

File Description:
FS2004 Gauge, Digital Checklist. This gauge is designed for the F16 Air Show Tour panel, file f16ast_1. It fits seamlessly with the F16 radio without requiring a separate panel installation or popup window. Seven pages of checklist items cover all phases of this F16's flight procedures. Most items on each page are monitored and when a check has been accomplished, the gauge changes that item's display color from green to grey. Also included in this D/L are enhancements for six of the original F16AST gauges. Installation requires only a Copy/Paste. By Glenn Copeland

Landing Speed Gauge

File Description:
This XML gauge installs as a pull-down, activated by shift+num where num depends on how many such pull-downs you have in the aircraft. You activate it during the flight before landing. You can move it or make it dissappear after activation. During flight it shows these speeds continuously in digital form. When you land the aircraft, it will show the indicated airspeed at landing and the vertical speed (when you make it appear). The values are frozen so you can jot them down. Pause the aircraft during roll-out and jot down the values. They may go to zero if the aircraft stops. It resets automatically when you take off. It also has been used by people with FSX with no problems.

Display_Smoke_ Cntrl_ Gauge

File Description:
This simple gauge is for the Alphasim T6 Harvard/Texan airplane (airplane package required), design to stop the 3 display smoke effects from coming on when the lights are first turned on from the spot view mode. Since both the Harvard or Texan are not using the Taxi lights, this gauge works based on the state of the Taxi light bool. When you first turn on all lights via the "L" key from the keyboard, the on state of the Taxi lights in turn, turns off the 3 Display Smoke Switches, then after a 2 second delay the Taxi lights are reset to the off state again, ready for the next cycle of the keyboard "L" key. Just want to reiterate, this is not a auto display smoke gauge in the sense, this is an invisible gauge (no visual references) that just stops the 3 display smoke switches from being turned on with the lights, so you don't get that big ball of colored smoke around the airplane when in "spot view" mode, and you turn the lights on via the "L" key on the keyboard. Note: Has not been verified in FSX, but should work though!
