translucent cockpit
#1

Has anyone here played the helicopter sim "Gunship" by microprose.
It had a nice feature where the cockpit could be made translucent (grayed out), to a couple of different settings, 50% or 25% from memory. This allowed the pilot to see the terrain and surrounds whilst still having the benefit of the cockpit and gauges.
I'd like to see this for some of the older bi-planes in Sturmovick that suffer from poor visibility, rather than the gauges only view which I find a bit arcadish.
Is this type of mod possible? Would there be a demand for this type of view? I know there are some talented modders out there, its way beyond my computer skills!.
Just a thought
Thanks, steveb

In the interests of trying to keep things as realistic as possible.. see through cockpits would be a bit of a no-no from me..

Wouldn't be of any value to me either. I'd probably buy a Playstation and a copy of Ace Combat if I wanted arcade style gimmicks.

For that I'd just rather open the pit...

... as long as it can get turned off , i don't care if someone makes such mod ..... but it would be interesting to see how it looks/feels IMHO cos i never ever used WW view .

not sure how it can be done though, cos you'll need to make not just cockpit files translucent but visible plane parts too ...
