Hello All,
Taurus, thanks for the new TGAs. Good work.
Gunsight note: There was problem with my gunsight mod and FMB that I wanted to correct this weekend. I fixed it and will upload the repaired version om Monday AM.
Cockpit Report: Here are some of the things I have been experimenting with.
First, I replaced the throttle lever with one from the Tempest. In addition to the improved quality, I think it is more accurate. It still needs a little adjustment in position (and maybe proportion), but mechanically it is moving correctly.
The other thing I was trying to do was to refine the area between the panel and the firewall to give it a more complete appearance. I added some panel edging and some cowling behind the panel. I had seen this type of arrangement in a sceen shot from another flight sim. I'm not sure if it is correct or not because I have not seen it in any cockpit shots of actual P47s.
Anyway this was just an experiment. If the new 3D tools become a reality we won't need to get our parts in such a roundabout way. :?
