You can fix this by adding a name tag to the part where the compass model gets included, and then adding it to the bottom of the InteriorGroup group, around line 330 in Models/c172p.xml. When you can see the compass from the outside you will see that it floats in mid air over the glareshield, so you might want to move it down a bit. Also the instruments are floating a few cm from the panel, this is evident when you look at it at an angle. You can remove the PanelInstruments and ControlsGroup warnings if you remove all references to PanelInstruments in Models/c172p.xml. It is still possible to see the instruments through the nav- and beacon-lights. But I guess this is something that has to be fixed in the code. Cheers, I'll have a look at those points. I noticed the instrument lights showing through but they don't have a texture so my trick with the panel wont work. :( Also of note; the panel being too far out means that I've totally mucked up my geometries :-S Oh well, my own fault ;) ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

Screen shot? :-) Jon If you'd like to try the c172p you can grab it here: http://www.cyfinity.com/fgfs/c172p.tar.gz (extract in your /data/Aircraft folder but back-up your existing 172p first! ;) ) Any feedback you can give me is greatly appreciated :-) ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

I follow you; but the reason that the geometry is wrong is due to the instrument sizes (ie: they appeared larger when closer to you). So I've repositioned them all anyway - looks better to my eye now and a comparison with my large-scale photo of my friends 'P' cockpit looks pretty accurate. :-) I've changed the wingtips slightly now (the nav-lights will need totally re-doing but that can wait till the landing+taxi lights get started).
