James: Any chance the bug has been figured out?
For the sake of others, perhaps who have seen (and fixed) this before, the panel of the 738 downloaded from the DVA fleet not functioning, affecting the two avionics panels.
Any help? I'm very eager to take this puppy up, and want to avoid having to use the MSFS 734 panel...
Thanks, Joe

Luke,
I am also having issues with the 737NG panel from the fleet installer. The gauges are distorted. I should've saved a screenshot before I installed a new one, but it's with Fs2002. Perhaps a 2002-2004 thing?

Probably. Find me an FS9-compatible 737NG panel, and I'll add it.
Cheers!

Luke,
It's actually on FS2002 that I'm having the problem...
James, are you using 2002 also?

Hmmm-I am occuring the same troubles myself. Most of my gauges are either off set or missing, strange.

I went onto Continental VA, and was able to (successfully) pull their AVSIM 700/800/900 panel onto the DVA 738.
I'm unsure whether their panel is worthy of DVA's high standard, but if deemed OK, it's a potential fix.
In the process of doing this today, I also realized that other VA's require fleet components to be downloaded piece-by-piece, which for me, was a pain in the tail. I feel "lucky" I got it to work.
It's a true testament to DVA that they offer fleet's in EXE format, which takes all the guessing out of adding aircraft! DVA is really great for doing this!
Best regards, Joe

I've seen that 737NG panel before, I think. The problem I've had is that it's a pain to find a decent 737NG panel that's freeware and compatible with FS9. Between Kevin Sparkuhl and the PMDG folks, most of the oxygen has been taken out of that market.
Can you give it a whirl with FS9 and send/post a screenshot?
Cheers!

Luke,
DVA 737 suite works great on FS9.
I have both 2002 & FS9, and have reluctantly used only 2002 on the network because it seems to work better with Squawkbox, etc.
738 is great - took it up for a dummy flight from Boise, ID to Butte, MT, which unless Delta is in the mood to go bankrupt, is a flight we'll never see on their schedule...
(Please see my other thread as it relates to FS9 & SB/FMS)
Regards,

I recommend you check out TUNGV1.ZIP at Flightsim.com, I think it is a great freeware NG panel

I use it with FS9 and it works fine, no distortion or anything. In fact it works better then most of the default FS9 panels. Odd. :-/

New fleet installer was just released, that's why.

Hello Fellow Pilots,
After waiting to get the new Dva fleet for the 737, I am still having trouble with it. After reading some of the posted problems I see that there is a compatiblitie problem. I am not sure what you guys are talking about, but I will say this, the problem that I am having has to do with is the multiplayer connection when having the Boeing 737-800(NC) or (NNC) selected as the plan from the create a flight. I then attemp to setup the multiplayer functions. The first box says to OPEN MULTIPLAYER SESSION, so I open and then the next box has my pilot name, thats fine. I then click HOST, that brings up the next box which is the multiplayer host server which is for Squawkbox, all the settings are then added, but when I click the OK button my MSFS 2002 shuts down totally. I have tried another Boeing aircraft and it all works fine. I connect to the Host Server and all works fine. I have been having problems ever since I have been in the 737-800 program.
Right now I am upset with that fleet livery, it doesn't work for some odd reason. Can anyone advise?
