nearly complete (is any project ever?) so releasing as a beta for your comments.



hires version- mostly 1024

low res version- all 512

extract to a convenient place and drop resulting 'boloxp40b****' folder into your mods folder and go fly.

most tga's are 1024 res so is probably not low end friendly :twisted: - 512 version now done

for g/f picture lovers i'm linking a psd file of the panel with a photo layer for you to play with- stick to the boundaries of the included photo and remember the alpha channel before saving as tga.



slightly smaller files

lighting on panel has been lowered in mat file so photo may appear dim. try increasing contrast :wink:



P-40C/TOMAHAWK MIRROR FIX

has been included in updated links- p-40C folder also includes a file '-heir' which if renamed as heir will correct a slight misalignment of artificial horizon- but loses mirrors :oops:

hopefully this is ready for submission in a few days if no problems occur

nice, good work!

[mayestdo]

Wonderful mod, guy!!!!! Now, the million dollar question: Will you repaint P-40E and P40-M cockpits? Oh, please, do it.

[Maxisonfire]

Good job !!! Thank you !

[zaelu]

Many thanks!!

[PA_Willy]

A big thank you Sir!

When this one goes to Alfa, pls start to redo any other cockpit

A big thank you Sir!

When this one goes to Alfa, pls start to redo any other cockpit

Isn't Alpha the early-early stage?

Anyways, fantastic work. The default cockpits always made me sad with their hard to read gauges.

Excellent work!.. this has needed a facelift!
Understand that this is a beta, but as it affects the Tomahawk mkIIb, will it give it back its mirror when it becomes final? because at the moment I can't get it to show up..

[BERSERKER]

Many thanks!!!!!!!

Outstanding work mate, the cockpits of a P-40 series, needed urgent improvement.

Well done

[fly_zo]

thanks m8 ....

suggestion for final release : you may wish to strip down a little pinup template file .... just finished panel + pic layer , cos 37 Mb is huge file .

thanks again

.... huh, i just tried it out in night conditions, i suppose this is intentional? But its no harm in asking, anyway :

bolox_p40.jpg (The link is inoperative)




its rather unreadable on my graphic settings but nothing i can't tune locally .... so its not a biggie

mirrors- thanks for spotting that.
tracked it down to the hier file in the p-40c sub folder- i copied p-40b one to get slipball in right place but it seems to kill mirrors in p-40c and tomahawk 11b- will work on that tomorrow.

nightlighting- umm.. working at my end hock: - so that's got me stumped at moment. i did play around quite a bit with the nightlighting to get a 'soft glow' look- mainly in the mat files dropping alpha testval (amongst others).
anyone else experiencing this? if so please report including gpu and screen resolution used.

37mb :oops: yeah i'd better merge that down!

looks like i've got some work to do tomorrow :lol:

[Trooper117]

The nightlighting is absolutely fine with my install.. no probs with that, its just subtle enough to pick out the detail..

[fly_zo]

... well, its must be my graphics / map settings then


sorry for the fuss :oops:
