P25416 Posted December 27, 2020 Report Posted December 27, 2020 Just purchased this and having issues. Supplied 172 works fine, but pop up does not. Instructions should say to create (not open) cfg file as it did not appear to exist. Once I got past that, I was able to get both G5s to open, move and resize. However, only about 2/3rds of HSI is visible. Does not matter on sizing or position. Quote
Coop Posted December 27, 2020 Report Posted December 27, 2020 Try this acfConfig.cfg file: acfConfig.cfg Quote
P25416 Posted December 29, 2020 Author Report Posted December 29, 2020 Coop, This might work, but it is incomplete. I am presuming it goes in each aircraft subdirectory, also how does it need to be named? Sorry, need more information to be able to use it. Quote
Coop Posted December 29, 2020 Report Posted December 29, 2020 This file keeps the same name, it goes into the X-Plane 11/X-Aviation/Cessna 172SP G5/plugins/G5/settings where it should replace the existing file Quote
P25416 Posted December 30, 2020 Author Report Posted December 30, 2020 Hi Coop, This worked. Thanks. A few hints for folks: The supplied 172SP with the two G5s worked fine. It was the pop up for other aircraft that only got a partial HSI. I didn't find that it worked if the above file went in to the above described subdirectory. I had to make one for each other aircraft duplicating the one like that under X-Aviation. For every aircraft that you want this to work in, you have to set up the pop up from a button as the instructions described and place this file as well (if you are having only a portion of the HSI appear.)

Andy Lutz Posted March 19, 2021 Report Posted March 19, 2021 Hi Coop, I installed the acfConfig file you provided above into my vFlyte Grumman Tiger to resolve the "2/3rds of HSI is visible" issue with pop-in instruments. The .cfg solved that problem and the pop-in HSI now renders correctly. Thanks. However, my GNS430 and GTX327 screens are overlaid with the HSI. See screenshot below. Do you have any idea how I can resolve. Andy Quote
Andy Lutz Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 Using the below in acfConfig.cfg solved my problem. g5_h_a = 200 g5_h_b = 200 Quote
ultimator Posted March 20, 2021 Report Posted March 20, 2021 I'm having similar problems, I will try the above fixes soon and report back re: xflyte comanche twin. Quote
ultimator Posted March 21, 2021 Report Posted March 21, 2021 The config file fixed the issue with the missing texture. Quote
N3752W Posted July 20, 2021 Report Posted July 20, 2021 Thank you to the members who posted these fixes, I had the same problems using the G5's on my AA5 in X-Plane. Any other tips would be much appreciated! Quote
