Star Liner for FSX

[navyman]

Hi All, I have down loaded and installed Super Constellations L1049g/h aircraft and enjoy learning to fly them.
I tried to download and install the Starliner L-1649a_4_0.zip and the attendant L1649_FSX_MDLs.zip. I installed the aircraft files and the MDL files in the Model directory.
I started FSX and selected the Starliner, FSX tries to load the aircraft but after awhile just crashes out.
The other Constellation a/c load correctly.
Any help or suggestions would be welcome.
I am running FSX under windows 10.

Regards

I would check the panel.cfg file in the panel folder. If it has the following lines near the bottom:

gauge45=CC_Engine_Control!Engine_Control, 8,8,5,5 // autostart system
gauge46=CalClassic!ENGINE_AUTOSTART_L1649A, 5,5,11,11 // autostart system
gauge47=CalClassic!AIRCRAFT_RELOAD, 10,10,11,11 // autostart system

edit them to:

//gauge45=CC_Engine_Control!Engine_Control, 8,8,5,5 // autostart system
//gauge46=CalClassic!ENGINE_AUTOSTART_L1649A, 5,5,11,11 // autostart system
//gauge47=CalClassic!AIRCRAFT_RELOAD, 10,10,11,11 // autostart system

And save the file.

Hope this helps,

Hi Tom, thanks for the info, it all worked well.
I have the found the Notepad gauge for the 749
I understand the installation of the cfg file
there is also the CalClassic folder containing
xml and bmp files, question is where do I install
the contents of that folder?

In the plane’s panel folder (i.e. alongside the panel.cfg file).
