A-10C Cockpit

[+Spectre8750 167]

Hi All

 

I have everyting working on this pit except for the second MFD. I have a black Map texture and the rotating map but i need to get it to zoom and rotate. could anyone help out a old 49er? or does anyone have a sample MAX file and textures and cockpit.ini i could check out for reference? Also this pick is a little old and Paladrian helped me with the clone issue.

 

 

Thanks

I like it a loT!!!!

 

hmm, map screen doesn't display map, right? have you set it as map display in ini file?

 

 

Instrument[XXX]=MovingMap

 

 

[MovingMap]

Type=MOVING_MAP

NodeName=your map node (mesh) name

and what does rotating map means exactly?

Yes Stary, the map shows but it's small and doesn't rotate.

I have it working now, had to set the real world mapping.

You think someone can make the antenna that goes on the spine and put it on there via the fake pilot method Spec?

[+Spectre8750 167]

Yeah Dave

 

Also i've have a nav compass and it's showing up as the world map texture and rotating in front of the world map that's in the background. i textured it and it has it's own node. strange. can't figure out how to set it. it shows in 3ds max ok, just not in the game. Help

I got it. going to add a TADS style Compass.

[+Spectre8750 167]

Just need to exagerate and add a little dark to bring out the Compass. almost done.

 

[+Stary 2,427]

great I really need this cockpit variant (DCS spoiled kid! )

[+Spectre8750 167]

Let me fix it today and maybe by tonight it'll be enough to post an updated beta. i want to resize the MFD's and re-texture them.

Perhaps you can add chaff and flare counters..

Yes most definitely. I would like to get the Digital Clock working too. and a ECM light. And would be cool to have a Target Icon on the Left MFD Map. Also does the DCS A-10C Manual show where the Gun Counter is?

The counter is displayed on a MFD page, manual page 516..

[+Spectre_USA 7]

Just climbed down, or actually crashed to desktop, from DCS:Warthog.

 

This is looking mighty fine!

 

And yes, the rounds counter is part of the DSMS page, which is on the the left MFD by default, but can be on either one via

a bit of switchology.

 

I miss the old SSP from the A-10A, but I am an old ex-warthog armorer...

hey spectre, you also could make the engines visible on the cockpit , i think it would look better

[+Crusader 2,101]

guess he would have to build the rear of the cockpit to make that happen... right now its kinda hacked off behind the pilot

Could be possible an sf1 version?
