DC 9-50 no gauges

[whirlwind]

I have downloaded the DC 9-50(JT8D-15( V1.13) base pack , the panel &core DC9-50(JT*D-15) plus the other relevant files. I have the DC9-50 in FS2004 it all works one problem a panel with no gauges ! I have read the instructions over twice to see if I have make a mistake ,I don't think I have . I have opened the panel & core file and there is no sign of a gauge file (should there be ?)
Where is the gauge folder ?
I downloaded the -15 because the -17 would not download
fsfsconv has dc-950jt8d-15 loaded

How do I get gauges into the panel

I just checked the DC9 core file download and it is fine.... 8.86MB in size. Sometimes downloads go awry. I had one just last week that ended up with a 0MB file. I just did the download again and it came through fine.

Try downloading the panel core files again (the very first download at the top of the list for the DC9 panels).

The first computer course I was sent on when we got to the classroom on the black board was " R T F S which we all know translates to "Read The F@#$%^& Screen
It is with embarrassment that I admit thats just what I didn't do when loading the DC 9-50 , had I read the top file in the panel list I would have seen the gauge file
Now all running 100% , super add on thank you to those that made it available
I may be getting old but hell 72 is not old

Thanks Mike .... and .... glad you appear to be sorted out in regard to the DC9-50 JT8D-15 too "WHIRLWIND".

The DC9-50 JT8D-17 should be just as easily sorted out too .... since thee's no problem with this particular file.

Downloads can, and do, occasionally fail during the downloading process (as Mike has indicated and you've described), due to whatever network reason might apply.

It can even happen a couple of times consecutively !

It's rare .... but .... it's also just one of those things which we've really got no control over.

It's perhaps always a good idea to note the size of the file you should be getting (as indicated when it starts to download) .... and then verify this with the zise of the ZIP file which you end up with after downloading.

Any "substantial difference" between the indicated sizes of both "MIGHT" suggest a corrupted download .... and in which case that particular file should be downloaded again.
