Hi guys. Before installing the BigE and following this great forum I was able to install the JR/Printz HUD in the default Hornet but also for fun in some other a/c, for example, the freeware Alphasim Vigilante (FSX) and had a great time finding the boat in the dark and/or weather. Great mods. I also had Sylvain's earlier TACAN gauge working for earlier pre-HUD aircraft which would point to Javier's Nimitz once the frequency was tuned. Off SoCal this was all the more fun with a number of cv's out their on different tracks and the gauge would shift as you overflew one carrier group and got closer to the next one up the coast.
It may be I lost the HUD symbols for some reason before installing the BigE a day ago, but now:
There is no longer any "TCN" symbol or distance to the Nimitz displayed in the HUD for all aircraft (in which this worked previously). There is however a carrier direction arrow and compass mark;
For the BigE, nothing appears in the HUD (a known issue that everyone seems to have thus far and needs the HUD to re-coded as I understand), moreover, Sylvain's beta v3 gauge does not work at all to find the BigE OR Javier's Nimitz now. I think I may get beeps when tuning the BigE frequency but that is it, no direction or distance info on the RFN gauge.
Have checked all the panel and air cfg settings, reinstalled the new gauges, etc. Is it possible that the BigE installer wiped out or buggered the carrier.xml entries somehow?
Left me in a bit of a mess!
