fireengineer Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 Its a pity we dont have a good flightdeck cockpit for this game. It spoils all the hard work of those that create these big multiengined machines, that handle and fight like they should but have no 'real' cockpit. Even a single good generic flightdeck with all the instruments readable would be good. I hear the sound of loading guns..... Quote
Guest Saganuay82 Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 " I hear loading guns " LOL Yeah good pit for the Herc and others would be good. The B-17 pit is a fill in for the Orion. Now to get rid of that bubble showing up ahead of the pilot. Quote
Lexx_Luthor Posted April 3, 2006 Posted April 3, 2006 (edited) Yeah good pit for the Herc and others would be good. I used the chopped A-4b pit that came with the 3rd Party B-57A (I can't find who made this) -- no A4b canopy framing -- and moved it inside the C-130a external model. C-130a -> CockpitDataFile=B-57A_COCKPIT.ini Use B-57A_COCKPIT.ini in C-130 folder But, change... Offset=0.0,-0.08,-0.03 Position=-0.50,10.0,0.30 ------------ For experiment I tried several of these. Moved A-7A cockpit inside B-58 external model (very high quality inside!!). Without knowing how this really works, I tried the canopy frame chopping text with the A-7A cockpit, but it didn't work. The A7A pit has ground radar, RWR, and moving map display. Here, I "offset" the player seat above the pit and back some, to not mix A7 canopy frame with B-58 canopy frames. The cost is smaller and lower pit. Its possible that the real B-58 pilot was offset slightly to one side, but I can't remember for sure. An-12 external model has a fantastic interior... here flying with A-4 pit inside the An-12 crew area... As does Tu-16... B-52D, moving FB-111 pit inside. B-29... We should ask TK to chop some fighter-bomber cockpit canopy framing so we can use them on bombers without "offsetting" player position above the cockpit framing. For bombers, we need ground radar and RWR displays -- A-7 cockpit offers moving map display. Just for fun, I Paused the sim and used freecamera to move to B-58 second crew position to look out the tiny side window. This is PAUSED in the game and is not flyable.

BOOM Posted April 3, 2006 Posted April 3, 2006 (edited) In your b-52 pit, how did you get all that stuff in the upper hud. I see people messing with that and cant figure out how to change it Edited April 3, 2006 by BOOM Quote
