INSTALLATION
Just unzip the files into the FS aircraft folder, move the .fx files to the main effects folder.

if not, put them into the main gauges folder. don't forget the eicas folder and the .cab file

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- KNOWN BUGS:
there are only a few minor bugs i couldn't fix,
1-The fuel crossfeed switch tag on the DVC reads FUEL SELECTOR, but it should work as crossfeed.
2-If you turn off the battery with the lights OFF, the MFD's will not shut down completely.
but if you unplug the juice with the lights ON, the MFD's will go completely black.
3-the rudder texture has a problem with mipmaps... it may appear completely blurred sometimes. to fix this, zoom in all the way and then back out. it should make it look good again
oh, and i could not get the gauge resolution any higher, if you know how to, please tell me
but it's surely readable...
i do not know why these bugs occur, but they shouldn't get in your way when flying.
THIS PLANE IS AS ACCURATE AND DETAILED AS I AM ABLE AND/OR WILLING TO MAKE. SO PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT ME ABOUT ACCURACY AND DETAIL ISSUES... HOWEVER I WILL BE MORE THAN GLAD TO KNOW ABOUT ANY BUGS YOU MAY ENCOUNTER
Keep in mind that this is only my FIRST successful attempt at FS modelling...
