No performance hit here, solid 60FPS. Only problem is the insufficient night lightning.

Well thanks, but that mod is useless now. The locations changed in the last DCS version. In the meantime I have found it myself. The loud engine noises of the P-51 are in: \DCS World\Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\Engines\V_1650_7\Cockpit I have found out it deleting temporarily all the files inside, and the cockpit turned silent, then restored the files, and lowered the volume. VERY ODDLY enough the Spitfire files are not in \Sounds but in : \DCS World\Mods\aircraft\SpitfireLFMkIX\Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\SpitfireLFMkIX\Cockpit Here we have it again: the folder structure of DCS is utterly absurd. I remember another SIM (I do not mention the name otherwise this post will be deleted), in wich the folder structure was \Aircrafts\Planexxx\Sounds\Textures\Model\etc. That made very easy to apply mods, textures or update. No wonder it takes so long for ED to update and / or change things.......

I agree too, but as said, in the new A-10 Cockpit this issue is even more present....

Thanks, I have thought of that, but still the engine is in my opinion too loud.

Hi, thanks, you surely mean \DCS World\Sounds\Sounders The only one I found full of luas.. but no mention of P-51 there...

I also find the new sounds fantastic, though the engine too loud in the cockpit at high revs. I tied to reduce the volume of what I thought were the corresponding .ogg files inside of \DCS World\Sounds\Effects\Aircrafts\Engines\PackardMerlinProp\Cockpit but to no avail. Anybody can help me out?

There you have it ED, so it is not just me. Something to be looked at in the new year, PLEASE. Otherwise the new cockpit is FANTASTIC.

Indeed... Though I would never go back to the old cockpit, as I found the new one far better, I can barely see some of the switches / dials at dusk/ night. As stated, with the same gamma setting, 2.4, other cockpits are a bit dark too, but OK.

Indeed... Where is the flashlight? like the F/A-18C AND the F-16 has....

I agree, but in the new A-10 Cockpit this issue is even more present.......

Let's hope even with all the cockpit lights maxed out, it is very hard to see most of the dials, Regardless of the gamma setting. With gamma 3.0 it's OK, but everything else is washed out. Other cockpits are pretty much OK.

The new cockpit is great, BUT.... it is WAY TOO DARK lit at dusk / nighttime. It was not so with the old cockpit.

I agree, the new cockpit is great, no issues with the perspective. BUT.... it is WAY TOO DARK lit at dusk / nighttime. It was not so with the old cockpit.

Thank you very much ED for the quick update from OB to Release version!:thumbup: Happy new year.

:thumbup::yay:

One of the great mysteries of ED...

Well, whatever it is, there is no excuse for this! Other sims (I do not quote them because they are going to delete my post) did and still do it properly from as back at least 10 years ago.....

Well, that makes a HUGE difference for the better! Thank you very much indeed! Remains for me a mistery why on this earth ED did not do it themselves in the first place....

If you dont want it, dont buy it. Absolute nonsense! ED has been more than generous lately, with the free A-10 new cockpit and a lot more. I am surprised they don't charge any money for that, a huge amount of work.

Axel 40 Quite a bold statement you post there: “The A-10 doesn't really get flown as much as the new stuff these days” That might be true for you, but how would you know what the others do?

Well, with that modification in the thread I pointed out, the A-10 has a very nice sound.

Hi firmek, I agree, the sound is bad. Though, here you have the solution: https://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=230832

And what about that cockpit BEFORE spending 6+ months on a carrier? Would Douglas or Boeing deliver to the military a multi-million aircraft with a worn-out cockpit?

INDEED! At last a factory new pristine cockpit! Great work, in spite of all the guys complaining that it is not utterly worn out as the F-18 was before my extensive and laborious retouching: https://www.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/files/3302617/ Or even worse, the F-14, fact that prevented me from buying it..... Yes! Please keep it up with the factory new pristine cockpits!:thumbup: A question for the worn-out damaged cockpit fans: Do your car look as worn out as the F-14?

Also CTD with DCS latest release version, 2.5.5.39384. Only with walleye. Logs attached. Logs.zip
