Lockheed L1329 Jetstar II -->FOR FS2004

HA ! found the problem : The L1329-25.air file can't load, switching to the FSD_JSII.air file in the config file lets the aircraft load, and everything in the VC loads, the exterior model is amazing.

Am still tinkering with the files but I found the RXP gauge in the panel is definitely giving my sim some coniptions. removed it (both windows 12 and 13 iirc) since realityxp gauges never worked in my win7 fs9 install tho they works fine under XP. I even put back the original air and mdl files and it seems to still load and fly right.

...but still see a couple of 'quirks' and wonder if anyone else has the same issues :
1. the VC backlighting for the engine gauges is missing. I think the 2d panel also has missing backlighting but I can't remember atm.
2. the landing light beams seem to have disappeared. The first time I flew it I had them but was using a completely different panel, now they're completely gone using either panel.
3. the fuel panel doesn't let me select either of the wing tanks, it's always draining the fuselage tanks.

Dunno if I should reinstall the A/C or some cache needs wiping, but other than those above I'm loving this bird.

2. the landing light beams seem to have disappeared. The first time I flew it I had them but was using a completely different panel, now they're completely gone using either panel.-->check landing light switch and which landing lights you use in aircraft.cfg
3. the fuel panel doesn't let me select either of the wing tanks, it's always draining the fuselage tanks.-->that needs deeper check

Dunno if I should reinstall the A/C or some cache needs wiping, but other than those above I'm loving this bird.
 
Hi see below

1. I thought about that, since the replacement panel I used to get it flying had the same unlit gauges. (Fraser McKays panel for the HJG jetstar1)
**EDIT** I reinstalled the entire aircraft and deleted the two rxp windows from the panel file. First launch the VC had FULL lighting, and the VC engine gauges all worked. it was glorious looking, but I chose the one model that didn't have a 2d panel. On reset, chose a different model with a 2d panel and VC backlights only shown on the static VC tectures- ALL the VC gauges failed to load. Tried 2 different models and same weird missing gauges. Relaunched and finally got a model that had a 2d panel, and working VC gauges. backlighting never returned in the VC. I'm at a loss here.

2. I didn't change any lights in the aircraft.cfg, so it's whatever they came with. I verifyied I have the fx files called for in the cfg. Whats weird is I posted a pic in this thread and they worked (Mckays panel and the FSD_JSII.air file). It's so weird.
***EDIT*** On reinstall landing lights returned. Issue resolved ??? <shrug>
3.
***EDIT*** On closer inspection of the fuel panel items ... ... it's ... ummm...not ... umm umm.... sigh.

1 more comment on the landing light issue : The landing light switch on the 2d panel doesnt turn them on, only the VC landing light switch or the sim's global 'L' command will turn them on. Also- the VC switch is 3 position ON-OFF-ON so I'm thinking it was written for lo / high beam setup for each side ?
 
Glad y'all over here are enjoying this fine bird!

We tested the fuel- its working

Is that in your panel.cfg

gauge36=LJS!Fuel_Control_V, 1511,1031,31,30
gauge37=LJS!Fuel_Control_H, 1550,1049,30,33
