Hi,
The old version is discontinued so it cannot be downloaded. We can’t reproduce your issue, the old panel and the new one should work the same in this regard. We’ve successfully run it in VR here and we’ve had users in the beta testing phase of the panel who have successfully run it VR, like here.
Did you restart you simulator after you installed v 8.0? Could you please try again? Is the navigraph icon not shown in your in-game toolbar? Could you somehow provide a screenshot of how it looks.
Regards,
Stephen
