Canopy framing

[usafphantom2]

Does anyone know how to get rid of those bars in front of my gunsight from offset canopy framing?Thanks for any help.

[+Wrench]

which aircraft???? I've probably already fixed it in my installs...oi! so much frakking work!!

 

other than cockpit ini editing (if known nodes of the cockpit lod), there's data ini editing as well, with the 'moves/removes' like I did for Raven's Hurricanes, open cockpit statements, CG offsets, ShowFromCockpit (true/false) and so forth

 

 

edit:

oh, and screenshot of the offending cockpit, loooking forward, is helpfull too!!

Have you tried turning OFF the fuselage in the various data inis?? This goes for dswan as well, since he posted the very same qestion on the DAT site

 

why are you playing on Easy mode? you know NONE of them had radars ....

Edit:

this issue has be prevlant since SF2 came out. It's know as the "double cockpit issue". FastCargo has addressed this in the SF2 Knowledge Base.

For those with some skill in editing (and for those that can't find it), here's the link

Thanks wrench! I was looking for that!As far as the easy mode I'm trying to fix a campaign on that one and wanted to see how the sim called file.Normally it's normal or hard setting

[usafphantom2]

I've tried two different method's to no avail one from Here and one from DAT site.Substituting any and all names for canopy mesh-one shown last I tried.

ShowFromCockpit=FALSE

1 - Use the old P-38 cockpit (not the YAP3)

2 - Add this lines to the *_COCKPIT.INI:

 

[CockpitSeat001]

ModelName=P-38Pit

ExternalClipDistMin=0.07

OpenCockpit=TRUE

Offset=0.0,0.10,-0.01

Position=-0.004,2.30,1.09

ViewAngles=0.0,-0.4,0.0

MaxYaw=135

MinYaw=-135

MaxPitch=90

MinPitchFront=-45

MinPitchRear=-25

 

Add this too in the proper place:

Well, it looks very nice if everything is correctly done. Hope it helps!
