Note: This is not a FSX native model so you may experience bugs
For this guide, I'm assuming you are installing the VC into an existing A380.
1) If you haven't already, download the VC package (found in the FS9 base package here) and unzip it
2) In the unzipped files, go into the 'Project Airbus A380-800' folder and copy the following folders to your existing A380's folder:
- texture (if it asks to overwrite, allow it)
panel.pa
panel.vas
and one of the following:
model.vc_ea (for EA engines)
model.vc_rr (for RR engines)
- i) Add either PAgauges or VASFMCgauges to the end of the title line (not 100% sure if this is required)
ii) Set the model line to either vc_ea or vc_rr (based on which model folder you copied)
iii) Set the panel line to either pa or vas
Edit: I've just tried adding a dark grey to the alpha channel on the window texture file (VC_A380_glass_t.bmp) and it seems to have fixed the "opaque windows at night" problem. If you don't know how to do this, download this and drop it into your A380's texture folder (backup the original first just in case)
Also, if your windows turn blue when it rains, see here
