What is GaugeDump?

GaugeDump is a Win32 shareware program designed to aid gauge developers for Flight Simulator 2000. GaugeDump takes an existing gauge file for Flight Simulator 2000 and creates a complete "C" project (excluding makefile) with various source files and extracts all the bitmaps contained within the gauge. With the output from GaugeDump, a panel developer can examine the drawing elements of the gauge, see the bitmaps, and have an excellent starting point for creating a new gauge based on the dumped information.

Download

Here you can download an evaluation copy of GaugeDump. The evaluation copy is limited to dumping only the first gauge in any gauge file. Registering the program will restore full functionality and let you dump all gauges in the gauge files.

Release Notes

Version 2.0 - Released to the public January 31, 2001

Known Issues

When dumping multiple gauges in the same session, the output filename will not automatically update when a new gauge file is selected in the input filename box. To avoid overwriting the previously dumped gauge source, you must change the path manually, or browse to the new location.

The documentation file in the release package and on the website mistakenly had typographical errors in two of the links. This was fixed as of February 5, 2001.
