Bandy Posted August 23, 2009 Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) I LOVE flying the early SPADs, thank you modders and skinners. Their hey-day was an interesting period of the war where you still see early obsolete AC like the DH2, Fokker EIII, and EIV Eindecker, but the latest Albatros fighters were also present. I've had some amazing 'single missions' where nearly a half-dozen different randomly generated aircraft were in the skies at once. This very minor mod to the cockpit.ini of all the SPAD VII's (150 and 180) as well as SPAD XII, repositions the cockpit model itself (from 3rdWire SPAD XIII) for best aesthetic result to reduce poke-thru of the aircraft mesh. I'm sure I could have fussed around some more, but there will always be a very slight poke thru and size misalignment though, so don't expect miracles. This makes a nice difference if you've got TrackIR. . . .

Hi mate, should this: [CockpitSeat001] ModelName=S13_cpit.LOD HideExternalNodeName=cockpit OpenCockpit=TRUE ExternalClipDistMin=0.01 // left-right, +forward-back, +Up-Down Position=0.00,-0.77,0.583 Offset=0.00,0.00,-0.05 //Stock FM //Position=0.00,-0.745,0.589 //Offset=0.00,0.050,-0.038 ViewAngles=0.0,0.0,0.0 copied like it is to the cockpit ini?
