Hello everyone, has someone added a 3d element to an existing cockpit using the false pilot method ??? I want to make a modification to cockpit by putting elements and making them visible through the line "open cockpit = true", but I want to know the experience of some of you

If you add a fake pilot part to the external model and place it properly in the pit then it will appear without any problem.

I have made a lot of fake pilots, pods, pylons, etc. all are visible from the cockpit slung under a wing. So I do not see any problem in making such a part and placing it in the cockpit. 

Just remember you can not add a fake pilot into the cockpit model.

Thanks Jarek for your answer, this is what I plan to do, a small modification (only eye candy) of the cockpit of the mig 29 sm / smp ..., the mdf screen can be given other functions perhaps ... later I upload photos of the 3d in progress

I don't think that's possible, unless you have the MAX files. Adding something like a picture (girlfriend type) was done in 1stGen. But what you describe, I highly doubt it.

don't forget, cockpits are a seperat model from the aircraft, and the 2 really don't meet

Thanks... I hope I am not disappointed with my idea yet (although I may be wrong) :dntknw: ... I don't want to add a fake pilot line to the cockpit ini or something like that ... I just want to add a cockpit element to the external model and move them into the hole ... I do not know if these, when leaving the cockpit open in the data, will be entered in the view of the same, since sometimes they see the refueling probe but here I hope that the 3d is forced into the model ... i don't know if it will work ... i still try

Yes, what you suggest is possible. I did it with the canopy bow in the cockpit of the Mitsubishi F-2.

The main issue you might get is with the clipping distance. Depending on how close the items are to the PoV they may disappear as you pan around the cockpit.

Also, you'll get the standard issues with the open cockpit (smoke inside the cockpit).
