Good deal!...But the post talks about a problem the user is having... im just looking for a basic instruction how to install it into the 747

To install CIVA into any panel you have to modify the panel.cfg file which is normally included in the /panel subfolder where the aircraft is installed.

Now, talking specifically about RFP747 you have two options:

1) Find a panel.cfg file already containing CIVA gauges (see for example http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?CatID=fs2004pan&DLID=125460)

2) Modifying panel.cfg by yourself (see PanelIntegrationManual.pdf CIVA doc)

I cannot provide you the file because I don't use RFP 747 sorry.

No INS in the VC :-/
You have to open 2D sub-panels...

In the VC you can still open up 2d "sub panels" by pressing direct keys (shift+number) as defined in the 2D panel.
The only problem is when you add sub panel beyond #9....then it becomes unreachable via shift+number key :(
You're very welcome!

The SST has fully working INS both in the 2D and the VC...I'm hoping it can be done with the RFP 747 too
