New update for F-4 not working well

[JonathanBleeker]

You unzipped both the J and the S dlls I posted above into your gauges folder?

[Harvard4]

Dear All,
We have solved the F4 J & S PROBLEM they both now load OK I saw the post regarding the menu system MVAMS
and the compatibility issues so now there is only the F4E BLURRY INSTRUMENT PROBLEM to solve.
I did unzip the two gauge files but it made no difference at the time. Of course I have downloaded all the three programs again
so do I need to unzip them again for the latest downloads?
kind regards Eric

1) You need to assign a key in the AMS to control the nose wheel steering
2) screenshots of the error?
3) screenshots of the instruments?
4) Did you assign how you want the afterburner to be controlled AMS? If it is not engaged by throttle position but by moving outboard, you need to assign a key in the AMS.

Shift-N does not work,the pdf show the old manager,were nice to update this also.........so were exact i need to assign a key in the AMS to control for the nose wheel steering,i found nothing wat tell me it is for nose wheel..........maybee a pic?
also when i load the plane on startscreen it crash the sim,when i load the standard flight i can change to the plane,but it is useless because i can not taxi........is there a new key for this nose wheel steering,if i set a key to this new AMS,wat happen to the settings in p3d,i do not want to mess something up,the only plane wat not work is this?

also when i load this plane,there a missing textures...............

look like this



installer is MilViz_F-4_Phantom_II_E_vA1.161007

av was of for download and install,uac is of,p3d folder is excludet from av.........

Thank´s

@Eric yes do unzip them again after the download just to be sure. But as for the blurry instruments, can you post a screenshot so I can get an idea of what is happening?

@banjoman
I need a screenshot of your AMS control assignments page to figure out what is happening.
Also it appears you are having a graphics card problem. What sort of video card are you running?

Dear Jonathan,
I re-downloaded the two J & S Dll zip files and the two aircraft F4J & S LOAD OK.
The sreenshot for the F4E is attached oops! normally I press print screen and press ctrl V IN DIALOGUE Box
but nothing has added. I will research this and get back to you.

regards Eric

Upload to a image hosting site like dropbox or imgur or photobucket and use the Img tags.

Dear Jonathan,
I have installed drop box and hopefully have a link to the F4E cockpit shot here https://www.dropbox.com/s/r4qcjdp9qj48b ... 1.png?dl=0
many thanks for your help

Check the Aircraft tab under Display settings in your FSX. Is the High-Resolution 3D virtual Cockpit checked? If you check your FSX cfg, is your TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD set to 1024?

[Harvard4]

Dear Jonathan,
setting for aircraft tab is checked for high res 3d. FSX .config file does not seem to have a max resolution setting. However when I
look under simobjects/aicraft/phantom II/config I can see the pixel size is 1024,1024.
What I do not understand is that when I load the F4E I get the blurry instruments but if I select the F4J OR S the instruments are OK.

Regards

Eric

[JonathanBleeker]

I am finding it equally confusing....

[Harvard4]

Disable mip maps in FSX.

For the J, you'll have to wait until Jon gets back

Hi Colin, what are mip maps and how do I disable them?
regards eric

[JonathanBleeker]

I don't think that can be disabled...But confirm that Global Max texture size in your Display settings is set to its max limit.

[Harvard4]

Dear Jonathan,
I reset the global graphics in display settings to Max and the problem is now solved for the F4E!
many thanks for your support.
